So to recap on this, Rossi is saying that at this moment there are 97 e-cats installed and working accross 4 different countries, with some already installed in the businesses of trusted individuals

Trusted? Sounds more like phantom to me. If there are 97 installations, there would have to be businesses willing to come forward with a testimonial saying the product is working. That is just basic business sense, has nothing to do with the technology.

When Rossi publishes names of companies, and reporters can go to those businesses, see the devices in operation and interview the owners as to the effectiveness of the devices, it will be believable. Until then, it is snake oil.

I have something very valuable in my pocket. For just $10,000 you can get in on the ground floor.

I can well understand why he is staying away from the universities and college professors who would slam him and his ideas without even giving his experiment a glance.

When I first heard about him, probably ten years ago he had already had a couple of cold fusion experiments that had been producing for more than 60 days.

That’s when I decided to see if I could get his address and approach him. It took about a year and I was so disappointed when he turned me down but I am thrilled that he has succeeded in making everything work the way he said it could. The is the kind of thing that will lead to accomplishing many more “cannot be done” experiments.

I am fed up with brain dead scientists whose proclamations are automatically accepted as wisdom because these men are respectable, which to me means they refuse to step outside the walls of the scientific community.

There are these business contracts called "secrecy agreements" that apply in such cases. It lets businesses test the technology while protecting the intellectual property of the inventor (in cases where a patent has not yet issued, and the inventor is depending on "trade secrets".

"When Rossi publishes names of companies, and reporters can go to those businesses, see the devices in operation and interview the owners as to the effectiveness of the devices, it will be believable. Until then, it is snake oil."

Official commercial rollout date is October of this year.
