demon_ixsays...*eco
Video freezes at 5:15 for me
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Eco) - requested by demon_ix.
arvanasays...Video plays through for me — anyone else have trouble with it?
schlubsays...Video works fine for me too...
bamdrewsays...very cool.
makes me wish i had an elaborate garage, and tons of free time.
dgandhisays...I think Make: just jumped the shark.
I like their stuff, but there are so many things wrong here it's absurd.
If this was an all scrap project I might be able to disregard that, I might even be able to let the completely unlikely flywheel motor go, but the crazy hard to find pvc pipe killed it.
An off the shelf micro-turbine costs $600, I want to know if making one of these with all its rare components saves any money, relative to buying one which will actually work for more than a week.
joedirtsays...RadioShack bridge rectifier $2
Gel-cell lead acid golf batteries $200
Ruining or blowing up those batteries in high wind... Priceless
TurkeyJawssays...*lies
The smoothie was made using energy obtained from driving the truck around.
siftbotsays...Invocations (lies) cannot be called by TurkeyJaws because TurkeyJaws is not privileged - sorry.
arvanasays...I think they were just demonstrating its capabilities, TurkeyJaws, not claiming that mounting it on the back of a truck produced free energy.
