This is an interesting device as waste heat is pretty common: on your car, on your roof in summer, on lots of places in the summer, on AC coils, and more. It would be nice if this would be converted to a reasonably priced consumer device. I've been hearing about this tech since at least 2012...

My wife and I have been looking for a piece of land on the outskirts of the small city we currently live in and WE THINK WE FINALLY FOUND IT! We wanted somewhere between five and ten acres, this piece of land is 9.16 acres. It backs right up to some very pretty foothills and though the land...

This is common sense stuff, but I found it interesting that they gave values to layers of clothing to show how much energy vs how many layers of clothing to remain comfortable. Saving 30%-40% of your heating energy just by wearing some thermal underwear is an interesting concept, especially if...
