My pm box is busy with people, wondering if I have given up on AR and the eCat. The answer is, No. That said, I do not wish to report on such a potentially important subject unless I can do so with all engines running. Although eCatNews appears to be popular, there were no offers

eCat Chatters
As though orchestrated by Rossi himself, the volume of reasonable and unreasonable criticism of his claims has intensified recently. The measure of reason will differ from person to person and I try to steer a productive conversation by encouraging all views even when I disagree with them. It is somewhat ironic that AR denigrates the chatterers
Andrea Rossi: Almost 100,000 Domestic eCat Orders
A few weeks ago the ‘news’ that Andrea Rossi’s call for a 10,000 eCat pre-order list had actually reached 50,000 was greeted with mixed reactions. Some tried to estimate the interest in the subject by studying site stats (such as those from eCatNews.com) feeling certain that active curiousity in AR’s claims were too low to
No eCat Research For University Of Bologna
For the last six months, many of us have been waiting in hope for the promised research contract between Andrea Rossi’s company and The University of Bologna to be actioned. The lure of independent tests coupled with the long association with the academic bastion through Professors Focardi and Levi lent a level of credibility to
eCat Pre-Order List 50,000 Units
Just posted on AR’s blog. Interesting that he is allowing slippage of the shipping date to 18 months. This is reasonable if dissapointing. This timescale is closer to his original forecast of one to two years before recent talk of Autumn/Winter this year. Given the hurdles of certification and tooling for mass production, a little
eCat To Have Inexpensive Global Kittens – Updated
The details behind AR’s 1 million production push are beginning to gel thanks to a comprehensive interview on The Smart Scarecrow Show. A tiny device somewhere between a cigar box and a laptop (not sure if this is just the core or complete system) it is destined for a $500 price tag with a small
1MW eCat Now $1.5M (US)
According to eCat.com, Andrea Rossi’ primary customer-facing affiliate site, the 1MW eCats have now dropped from $2M to $1.5M. This is in line with previous comments from AR and although we do not have confirmation from the inventor yet, I would consider eCat.com a trusted source on that sort of information. The reasons for the
eCats Predicted At $50/kW Says Andrea Rossi
This is food for sceptics and believers alike: Andrea Rossi January 13th, 2012 at 3:07 AM Dear Robert Tanhaus: The concept we are developing is totally new, you will see. The E-Cats will be very easy, very chip, the assistance will be very close. The industrialization we are working on is probably as much important
Andrea Rossi: Robots To Build Million eCats
There are many points of attack hard sceptics can use to warn poor deluded believers of their folly. Some are justified and form the basis for this site holding back on that final step down the rabbit hole. Most, however, are weak. One such is scoffing at the idea of a million eCat production goal
Dr Ed Storms On LENR: It Will Change Life As We Know It
Long time cold fusion advocate (and now retired Los Alamos scientist) Dr Ed Storms recently gave an interview to Dr David Livingston of The Space Show. For those of you following this story for some time, there is little new in the interview but I would still recommend listening. Cool headed and pragmatic, Dr Storms
World-Wide Domestic eCat Sales From Day One
I have to admit surprise. AR announces that sales will be Global from the get-go once they go live (hopefully Autumn this year) in the US. This will happen after they receive accreditation. Since any such system is not universal, it may simply be a pragmatic push to spread the tech through a global army
Home Depot eCat $1.5K?
In an interview on Cash Flow Radio, Andrea Rossi tells us that the target price to the customer of a 10kW – 20kW eCat is $1,000 to $1,500 and that running it should be one sixth of the equivalent average household spend. According to the inventor, the company is discussing a possible distribution deal with
Defkalion Clarifies: 5 MW Hyperion
Updated Defkalion has picked up on the Wired UK statement regarding company plans to roll out a 1MW Hyperion at launch. They go further, claiming that the current geometry of the design will allow them to couple multiple units (similar in strategy to Andrea Rossi’s 1MW eCat) to produce an extremely versatile industrial system capable
US Senate Candidate on LENR and Rossi’s eCat
Ruby Carat at Cold Fusion Now has posted an interview with US Senate candidate Randy Hekman about LENR. A long-time advocate of the science, I’m not sure we can count his support as evidence of a growing awareness in the same way we might think of Romney and Tarr’s apparent interest. No stranger to subject,
eCat 10,000 Target ‘Close’ Says Rossi – Updated
Categories: Media/Blogs, products Hopefully, with the help of our Italian friends, we will get to learn what this means: Dario November 25th, 2011 at 1:44 PM Egregio Ing. Rossi, mi scusi, ma sono troppo curioso ! A quanto e’ arrivata la lista dei 10.000 ? P.S. Se in 1.000 hanno fatto l’Italia, in 10.000 si puo’ fare la |
