I would think you need more than 2500 watts available around the house for running larger devices like freezers and fridges and washers and dryers and air conditioners. Ovens for cooking need a lot of energy. They need to have the ability to tap higher wattage numbers at least on startup.

I agree. A home based E-Cat system would need to be at least 10 kW to meet peak demands I would think. Also, E-Cats produce only heat, so you’d need to convert that to electricity which would mean power loss — and you’d have a lot of excess heat.
You can make AC directly from heat if you use an absorption cooling system.

Ovens for cooking need a lot of energy. They need to have the ability to tap higher wattage numbers at least on startup. You would get higher power levels by grouping multiple e-cat units. Don't look for home e-cat units any time soon, Rossi & co are currently only talking about industrial/commercial sized units for now.

I agree that the wattage would need to be higher than 2500 watts, but things like starting current could be handled with a “peaking” rechargeable battery or capacitor bank.
Home heating, hot water, and cooling would more than likely be driven by the “waste heat” after electical generation. But it should be very simple to daisy-chain multiple E-Cats to tailor almost any size load.

"ping....might be of interest...dont know much about it myself."
Thanks. I wonder how that international reactor prototype project is going in France.
