Yes, that would be if you filled the whole cell with LiOH and burned every bit of the hydrogen. Of course the true chemical energy potential is likely more than order of magnitude less. Since I didn't measure the actual amounts of the substances added, I did calculations that would grossly overestimate the chemical potential. Besides, I have a number of failed runs that don't differ significantly from calibration suggesting chemical effects are low enough to not be detected. I have seen chemical heat clearly before when using KOH, but it is gone after an hour.
