I agree David. You can verify this by looking at the data for both the caps and the E-Cat body. The caps are not incandescent, so there does not appear to be any transparency issue there. The Delta T/Watt is nearly the same despite an increase in input power of ~100W. You would expect it to be significantly lower.
