But the point is, he gets the same power with both meters reading zero as he does when they read current. If the Rossi's on/off cycling uses a switch like that, they would calculate a duty cycle of 1/3 when it should be 1:1. It would be trivial to show the line is providing power by pulling the plug. In Rossi's case, if they pulled the plug during the 4 minutes off, would the temperature profile change? I guess we won't know because this clever snake-oil video maker was not invited to the experiment. But again, I don't have to know how that trick works to be suspicious that the cheese does not provide power, so it's not necessary for me to describe a deception to be suspicious that there is one in the case of the ecat. There are many reasons to be suspicious, which would have been easy to avoid if Rossi had wanted to.
