Andrea Rossi’s latest e-cat test for his unnamed American partner on October 28 reportedly went well. This is the first time that somebody besides Rossi has directly tested the cold fusion device. The Italian media and reporter Mats Lewan of the Swedish Ny Teknik newspaper were present.

Ny Teknik reported that a man named Engineer Domenico Fioravanti whom it named as the customer’s controller for the test (obviously a mistranslation) stated the device released the equivalent of 479 kilowatts in a five hour sustained test. This figure refers to heat and not electricity, as far as I know no cold fusion device anywhere has actually generated electricity. Ny Teknik stated this is less than the 1 megawatt Rossi wants the device to generate. A copy of the report can be downloaded here.
