"Is Prof. Francesco Piantelli’s device a Nickel-hydrogen electrolysis cell like the P&F device or is it more along the lines of Rossi’s device? They say that they have ‘cells’ that have run for long periods but I don’t understand if that means it’s a P&F type cell or is something missed in translation?"

This is a nickel-hydrogen gas loaded cell, therefore not electolytic. That puts it in the same technology area as Piantelli, Rossi, and Defkalion.

"It’s interesting that he says he doesn’t need a catalyst in that it’s all in the preparation of the Nickel."

Indeed that "is" interesting.....I missed that detail.

"I’m can’t wait to see the results while we’re waiting on Rossi and Defkalion. Wasn’t Defkalion supposed to have had a big announcement already or did I miss it?"

As I understand it, the Defkalion reviewers will report when they have all reduced and compared their data. I "think" I have seen somewhere that the projected time frame for that is later this month. As to Rossi......who knows.....even "he" probably doesn't.

Any news yet? Their web page hasn’t changed that I can see.

It would be nice to see working devices (and write-ups) for long periods with proper calorimetry done or at least decent measurements taken from the proper places.

It would also be cool to see the top COP as well as the lowest which the article mentions some are running at 2 but expect to run at a much higher COP after some optimization.

Rossi and Defkalion might find that they’ve been left behind if they don’t produce. In fact, didn’t Rossi ‘borrow’ Piantelli’s work? I hesitated to mention Rossi but he is the elephant in the room.
