There is no evidence that Rossi could not recirculate the condensate if he wanted to. There are no physical limitations or problems that would prevent it. However, as I pointed out, it would be a little tricky and a nuisance, so why bother? Doing it is just a matter of engineering. Frankly, I do not see what difference it makes. It reduces the recovery rate, but so what? Even if you assume the recovery rate was 100% and the reaction produced only 38 MJ, there is no chance this was from chemistry or stored heat. That is ruled out by a wide margin. Whether the margin is a factor of 3, or 10, or a million does not make the slightest bit of difference. Obviously he could have run longer and extended this margin indefinitely. 2. Claims made by Rossi have no connection with those made by Defkalion. Just because you think Rossi cannot recirculate, you have no basis whatever to conclude that Defkalion cannot. There has been a lot of confusion about this. In the Defkalion on-line forum, many people asked about claims made by Rossi, or challenged these claims. The people at Defkalion did not respond. They were not evading the issue. They know nothing about these claims. Rossi reportedly transferred the technology to Defkalion, showing them how to make the nickel power, the cells and other components, and how to control the device. He did not transfer to them his oddball methods of doing calorimetry or his test techniques. They use conventional methods and instruments. - Jed
