==Undocumented experiment on February 10, 2011==
On February 10, 2011 a further "internal test", attended by the allegedly "independent" physics instructor Guiseppe Levi from Bologna University, was made with the "E-Cat" in Bologna. Several websites purport the test instead took place on February 18, 2011. According to Guiseppe Levi's description, published in a Swedish online article with the title ''"Cold Fusion: 18 hour test excludes combustion"''<ref>Mats Lewan: ''Cold Fusion: 18 hour test excludes combustion'', "nyteknik.se", article from February 23, 2011. [http://www.nyteknik.se/nyheter/energi_miljo/energi/article3108242.ece Text]</ref>, the device was connected through a hose to a regular water tap to cool the "reactor". Tap water was said to flow through the device with about 1 liter per second and to be heated by 5 degree. The test was run for 18 hours, a water meter quantified the flow and was checked by video during the night. The "reactor" was allegedly heated up for 10 minutes with 1,250 Watt and afterwards only the controlling device was supplied with 80 Watt. This would imply a constant thermal output of 15-20 Kilowatt. According to Levi, 0,4 grammes of hydrogen were used in those 18 hours. The same source quotes Levi with the comment he now excluded "chemical energy" as heat source:
On February 10, 2011 a further "internal test", attended by the allegedly "independent" physics instructor Guiseppe Levi from Bologna University, was made with the "E-Cat" in Bologna. Several websites purport the test instead took place on February 18, 2011. Levi is the leader of a workgroup of the department of physics which got a financial contribution for their support of the project.
