It does not "look" feeble to me, but the video of the steam teakettles shows
that you cannot easily tell the difference between 900 W and 2200 W, so
visual observations of steam are useless for this discussion.

If it is 800 W of steam then there has to be excess, because that was the
input power, and there have to be a lot of losses from the eCat body and the
hose. You cannot have all of the input power magically transfer to the water
without any losses. Anyway, I don't think anyone can say whether this is 800
W of steam or 3000 W. The 3 kW steam cleaner video I found looks about like
this, too.

I don't see where you get a 3000 W loss.

There is not a shred of evidence the eCat is fake. Rossi's recent
demonstrations did not prove the thing is real. They were only meant to show
how it works, not to prove that it is real. But the previous tests proved it
was real. Other tests of similar Ni-H devices prove that the Ni-H effect is
real. There is no reason to doubt this device is real. A person might have
lingering doubts because the claim is so dramatic, and because Rossi is such
a flamboyant person who makes himself look bad. But in all the months of
blather here I have not seen a single valid reason to doubt any claim made
by Rossi. All the talk about magical wet steam and these visual comparisons
of steam are nonsense. Steam at these temperatures and pressure is dry. The
heat of vaporization of water is shown in any textbook, and the textbooks
are correct. It is 540 cal/g at 1 atm. That's not exact but it is close
enough.
