The problem is, that they claim they have heated an office before.
This is not a problem. On the contrary it strengthens Rossi's claim.
Several people said they saw the heater in operation so I suppose this
is true.
Rossi also claimed before they had done mass flow calorimetry before.
If so, they must have a lot of experience.
No one denies that Rossi has a lot of experience! He is somewhat sloppy,
but that has no bearing on how much experience he has. I know some
elderly farmers and fishermen in Yamaguchi Japan and in Pennsylvania who
work in a sloppy, slipshod and dangerous manner. They have been doing
that for 60 years. How they survived so long is a mystery.
They are extremely good at what they do. That is to say, they can fix
machinery or harvest oranges much faster than most people could. But
they climb up on packing crates tied together to fix live electric wires
or they stick their arms into working threshing machines in ways that
would give OSHA a heart attack. Sometimes when they are drunk. One of
them drove a bulldozer off of a high cliff and somehow was not badly hurt.
If this all is true then I cannot believe this latest demonstration.
Why dont they place the thermo-sensors in a larger distance where
error is impossible? Did they do their previous measurements and the
whole development and optimization in the same risky way?
Why does a 65-year-old fisherman set out in stormy weather, with a
leaking 10 m boat, three sheets to the wind (drunk)? Because he is
reckless and stupid. Because he has spent a lifetime doing things like
that and he manages to do a good job anyway. I mean a boat like this
one, only rusting with no radar and the radio doesn't work:

The water cannot loose much energy if he had placed the sensors some
cm away.
The water cannot gain energy or rise in temperature unless there is a
source of heat.
If they want to go commercial why didnt they demonstrate a commercial
usable form of heat, eg 60° or more?
This would also be MUCH easier to measure and with higher undeniable
evidency.
That's actually harder to measure, for reasons beyond the scope of the
discussion. This test peaked with a Delta T of 10°C, which is ideal.
Everything what they do appears unlogical to me if this really work
and if they really want to commercialise this.
Agreed!
There is nothing with all that that makes real sense to me.
Maybe he is a genius-inventor and a little bit mad, as it is often the
case with inventors and geniusses.
That he is. Definitely. I have seen worse ones but he's pretty bad.
