It will take more than just a generator and an extension cord to close the loop. Some form of energy storage will be required to do the job.

The reputed gain is sohigh – Rossi would be wise to forego calorimetry and go directly toconversion of heat to electricity. Here is the device thatcould do that – ORC in a small format. This device is perfect for theHotCat. http://www.infinityturbine.com/ORC/IT10_ORC_System.html At 6:1 gain, Rossi shouldbe able to close the loop. From:mark.gi...@gmail.com Even though I'm still wearing my skeptic's hat (that'sthe one with the propeller on top) isn't the argument about the needfor calorimetry made irrelevant the amount of energy observed to havebeen generated? In other words, even with more precise measurements the exactenergy output couldn't have been something more than an order of magnitudelower which would still validate the claim of significant over unity energyoutput.
