Thanks for posting this article.

Quite the contrary - Input liquid water at 'x' flow rate goes through the E-Cat manifold, exits at the SAME flow rate (unless you are dumping water somewhere); now simply measure the change in temperature, let's call that Delta T. You know the flow rate, you know the input temperature, you know the output temperature - look up the Enthalapy values and badda-bing - you have your answer. http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/heat-work-energy-d_292.html
You get the same effect when your Muffler Belt turns the Gas Auger on your car's carburator, unless the Exhaust Sprocket jumps the cam. < /yeah, I'm kidding>
This may be the same author that wrote about fans being required on Pentium processors, because the spinning blades made the processor run faster. He hasn't a freakin' clue as to what he's writing about - it's just another free-lance job that pays a couple bucks.
That said, the E-Cat has certainly had many sets of eyes on it, many different experiement, many demonstrations - too many, IMHO, for this to be a fraud. If it were a fraud, it would have been 'outted' by now. Greece, again IMHO, is hedging the economic future of the mess they have created, on the 'hail Mary' pass that this device will pull their butts out of the fire.
Let me know if you or anyone else will get access to take measurements.
- He [Rossi] is making "remarkable" progress on self sustaining E-Cats that do not require a constant input.If 1) these devices provide an energy output in excess of the input and 2) that output can be converted to electricity, why in the world would it require progress, remarkable or otherwise, to tap the output, convert part of it to electricity, and substitute that for the constant input power?
Am I missing something obvious? I'd think that a fairly simple regulation circuit for the input power would certainly prevent any possibility of a runaway condition.
Basically, it would be because the output is difficult to regulate, fluctuating wildly.
Why do you think they solder down the capacitors on a circuit board? They dont want them floating away.
***Actually, when one starts up an Automated Test Equipment (ATE) rig, there are capacitors in the 10K - 100K Volt range that charge up, and the whole machine jumps a bit. Since the rig weighs several hundred pounds, that makes the impulse vector to be several hundred pounds. I think this is called the Poynting vector.
