It is the part labeled "Reactor" in Higgins' diagram, which is not to scale: http://lenr-canr.org/RossiData/Higgins%20Oct%206%2027kWreactorDiagram4.png > I have no way to check that. > Of course you do. That device is where the power leads and hydrogen gas leads went to. It is clearly the only source of heat, so it has to be the cell. Even if it is a fake cell, it is still the origin of the heat. Lead and steel walls do not spontaneously heat up. > If it was the cell, isn't it much larger than previous cells? A factor > of three or more larger? > No, about the same. Plus there are three cells in this one. There is about the same amount of active Ni catalyst. That is the only meaningful ratio. The mass or volume of other stuff such as lead shielding is not relevant to power density. - Jed
