I would assume that the home units will have city or well water running through them. What are they going to look like after six months? And how do you know it's just water scale, and something else isn't involved? That's a lot of scale for a few hours operation.
It's a picture from the October 6th demo, and it looks just like the units that went into the cargo container that the mystery "customer" "bought."
They already have a "perpetual motion" power generator that sounds far more impressive than Rossi's tea kettle. It generates electricity and heat without any fuel, which is far better than having to rely on Rossi to provide recharges of his magic pixie dust every six months.
Rossi seems to be consistently picking partners with histories of gullibility and/or fraud.
Powder..patch..ball FIRE!
Have you EVER in your life cleaned out a hot water heater? EH? They work perfectly fine for YEARS or DECADES processing hot water with electric heating elements while precipitating scale all the time..
What on earth makes you think this technology would be any different? (OH yeah - gotta maintain the argument).
If I cleaned one after a few hours operation I'd expect it to be like new.

DOH.. Production water heater built on assembly line runs at 170 Fahrenheit. DOH.. prototype E-cat (you keep forgetting the prototype part) runs at significantly greater temps. and have you EVER seen any of Thomas Edison's prototype light bulbs? They don't look anything like what we have off of production lines today..
Then it should be built accordingly. If those are deposits, that thing isn't going to last six months. I'd expect that a prototype so close to production would be similar to a unit being sold, especially with the availability of today's materials.
It’s either the greatest technological advancement since prehistoric man learned to make fire, or a scam.
IMHO, in the short term we’d be better off working on COAL fusion (turning solid fossil fuels into liquids and gasses) than cold fusion.
BTW, Rossi can barely make water boil, so the temperatures wouldn’t be much great than a water heater.

Doh.. Maybe they are, the picture you showed was of a prototype - prototype - prototype (say it with me, you can do it).
You expect too much for somebody who has nothing more invested in a technology other than hot air. Your arguments get sadder and easier to refute every time.
9) and convinced a bunch of Greek crooks to set up a dummy company called DefkalionDefkalion was set up to hype Rossi's E-Cat. Their internet domain was created the day before Rossi's first public dog & pony show.
The very first sentence of THIS document states:
Defkalion Green Technologies s.a. was established to manufacture and market products based on the E-Cat, which was invented by Andrea Rossi.So, this part of your argument actually supports the opposite of what you're trying to prove.
How do you know the unit used for the October 6th test was any different than the ones that were “sold” on October 28th?

Doh... that doesn’t even deserve a response.
But I cant resist.
I wasn’t there and neither were you.
I don’t work in his laboratory (although I wish I could), and neither do you.
I didn’t set up the equipment - oh yeah neither did you.
Are you trying to convince anybody or do you just talk to hear yourself argue?
If I were a customer or an investor, I’d want the issue addressed.

I’m sure Lennox will offer a substantial warranty once they start mass producing units for the home and office.
You can check with your dealer then on the materials and other concerns...
Doh!
Are you thinking of stellar nucleosythesis? That involves a different isotope of nickel.
Here is an explanation of what the author thinks is going on in Rossi's device:

Uh, wrong. There is very little correspondence between what Rossi purports to be doing and uranium isotope enrichment. Uranium enrichment is not done through transmutation; it is essentially a chemical and/or physical separation process. Rossi is claiming proton and/or electron capture to transmute nickel to copper or the reverse, and those reactions release energy in the form of antiparticles and/or gamma rays.
