      Ok sorry, I got my technologists mixed up.   
   BTW. Maybe you saw the latest change with the hydrogen source?   
      
   •The hydrogen canister has been removed and the hydrogen is now stored   
   inside a solid material due to safety reasons.   
      
   Picked that up with this;   
      
   "There is only one thing that counts for me: to work and to make a valid   
   product. If there will be competition, whomever they are, they will have   
   to fight against a very tough competitor. We will be very tough to be   
   beaten." ~Andrea Rossi   
      
   Here is a summary of the latest ECAT developments made by Andrea Rossi:   
   •Andrea Rossi has developed a new design of the ECAT Home unit which is   
   33cm x 33cm x 6cm and can be put vertically or horizontally. Total   
   weight is 10 kg   
   •The technology is completely changed, new patents have been applied   
   for, an intense testing program is going on with very good result   
   •Leonardo Corp will defend its Intellectual Property against copycats in   
   all necessary courts   
   •The new ECAT Home unit has two simple connections for input and output   
   of water   
   •No pictures will be released until the product is for sale   
   •By law a customer has 60 days of time to give back the device if   
   unsatisfied, and Leonardo Corp give all the guarantees required by the law   
   •Production capacity of new factory is one million units per year   
   •The hydrogen canister has been removed and the hydrogen is now stored   
   inside a solid material due to safety reasons   
   •There is a new control system for both the ECAT Home unit and the ECAT   
   1MW Plant which are made from an undisclosed supplier, not National   
   Instruments   
   •The only certified places to pre-order an ECAT are either   
   Info@leonardocorp1996.com and/or via the order form at ECAT.com   
   •Certification from UL – Underwriters Laboratories is in process   
   •The highest temperature that could be achieved in the reactor of the   
   domestic ECAT is just below the melting point of Nickel   
   •No radiation has ever been detected outside the ECAT   
   •The ECAT has already got important authorizations   
   •The COP (Coefficient of Performance) is 6   
   •Licenses to sell and market ECATs has been granted to licensees, not   
   yet published   
   •When Leonardo Corporation will execute the commercial strategy, the   
   entire network of the licensees will be published   
   •Andrea Rossi anticipates that an air conditioned generator and a   
   electricity generator will eventually be suitable accessories for the ECAT   
   •Siemens has shown an electricity solution for Andrea Rossi with 33%   
   efficiency for 25MWe at 250C, 40bar and a smaller version with 30%   
   efficiency for 5-8MWe also at 250C, 40bar in the secondary circuit
