Relax, what I was saying is that there is no way to ADD to the amount of energy going in through the cord. Getting an efficiency rating over 100% would mean all the energy going in is used and then some more ON TOP OF THAT. This would mean energy is being created out of nothing. This would be the case if there is more energy coming out then there is going in.

Also, I have never said they can't heat water with this technology. And I'm not raining on anybody's parade. I am heavily invested and have been for over 2 years. All I am saying is that this cannot possibly be significantly more efficient than an existing electric tankless unit that genuinely gets close to 100% efficiency. And WDRP acknowledged there are such units out there. There are numerous possible advantages that this unit could have over those, which I have listed several times, I won't go into them again.

Everybody who ever heated a cup of water in a microwave knows this technology is perfectly feasible in theory. But some longs need a bit of a reality check as far as what to expect in terms of efficiency numbers. That doesn't mean this product and company don't have great potential, which is why we are all here.

WDRP is not claiming to heat water out of nothing
Depends on what the definiton of is is, I mean of "claim" is.

Wanderport and Design 1st Inc. Agree to a New Mandate

NEW YORK, June 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Wanderport Corp. (WDRP) today announced the approval of a new and expanded commitment with Design 1st Inc.
Building upon the successful completion and testing of the single cavity microwave energy tank-less water heater (SCMHU), Wanderport (WDRP) and Design 1st Inc. have agreed to a new mandate for the production of the "point of use" multi cavity microwave energy tank-less water heater (MCMHU).
The MCMHU will be a more powerful SCMHU incorporating an improved heat exchanger and the latest UL® safety recommendations forming the basis of Wanderport (WDRP)'s anticipated commercial product. This "level one" MCMHU will employ four heat exchange chambers and is intended to be used in a residential "single point of use" application such as an individual kitchen or bathroom. The company's intention is to move beyond the lab and into residential beta tests with this unit. Design 1st Inc. has begun working towards the MCMHU and presently do not foresee a lengthy production process.

So the MCMHU at "level one", using a quad-chamber, is intended as a single usage point heater, such as a bathroom. Now resumably that means a shower could be comfortably driven.
But if we take 6000 watts of magnetrons we do not end up with a useful shower. As 1500 watt magnetrons are close to the larger standard for the consumer market we can probably safely assume that any extra heating of water in the quad-chamber would have to come from elsewhere . . . like out of thin air.
