E-Cat cold fusion reactor

As usual, I'm skeptical as heck, but this one has supposedly has (limited) outside confirmation. No full-scale double-blind tests yet.

2.6 kw from 300 watts input. On another link I saw a picture of a 10 kw unit that easily fit on a desk top, so that would mean easy home installations and even possible vehicle installations.

Nothing in life is certain except death, taxes and the second law of thermodynamics.

2 of the 3 links you posted appear to confirm the output of the device, the 3rd isn't directly related. How does this prove a "99.99% scam"?

I guess you could say we've learned from years of experience. Just call me extremely sceptical. I'm the offspring of Doubting Thomas when to comes to announcements like this. I'll wait for the double blind affair

That why I posted them, even the most positive 'believers' realize that what they are seeing is either totally new materials science or impossible.

Whereof what's past is prologue..

You can believe it when it becomes available at the retail level.
Until then, even if it is real don't hold your breath waiting.

The majority of the reports of the test are third hand or done by "cheerleaders". If the individual has a legitimate product, venture capital firms would be swarming. There are plenty of third party firms that could test the device and resolve a lot of the questions. Based on the limited reports, this sure didtn appear to be the case.

I'm still skeptical, too. I was just pointing out that nsaspook's links made no sense in the context of his posting.
