Anyone can build a Water Heater. There are many already on the market.
As it pertains to WDRP ... Is it Viable? Is it Economical?? Is it Efficient?
At this point Robert has not been able to answer YES to any of these questions.

Have you seen The Engineer Poets thoughts yet?



Interesting comments on Robert's concept of using microwaves for his LONG Awaited water heater.

Microwaves are not magic. Generating microwaves is a lossy process. You can turn on a magnetron in a fraction of a second (if its filament is hot), but you're going to lose up to half the input power as heat in the device itself.

Point 1: It is impossible for a microwave-based water heater to require less energy or deliver hot water faster than an on-demand resistance heater.

Point 2: It is very unlikely that the microwave heater will have lower losses, because it will need to keep its filament powered for instant-on operation, and the heat dissipated in the magnetron (which will have to be water-cooled) will leave some unusable heat in the machine itself when the water stops flowing. That energy is lost.

RiskItAll ... How do you know it works? How do you know that it has been used by "various professionals"? Who are these "various professionals"? How do you know that it is a "viable product"? Where did you hear that a "major buy back is happening"? Where are you getting this information from?

That is has worked and has been used by various professionals including Robert and Design 1st. So yes, it is a VIABLE product.

Slapping together a unit or bolting one together, as long as it works you can use whatever word you want, but yes, it works.

Major buy back is happening.

RiskitAll ... So, you're saying that Andrew and Belize are the other professionals and that they have used this? Seriously? When is the major buy back happening?
