Steorn is not stating anything about the input power requirements for their HephaHeat product in that product's web pages. The personal communication about "1kW" was made regarding a FaceBook video of a device that might be construed to be related but is not claimed to be related by the Steorn HephaHeat pages. It might also be construed, given the ambiguity, to be a continuous power input drawn down as heat in short periods of time (say during a shower). Indeed, that is the interpretation given the "1kW" statement by many skeptics.
