A very interesting project! Might benefit from some arm-rests, perhaps. Have you measured the power usage in summer and winter modes?
What is the name of this song in the background of the video, pray tell?

Mike -
erm no I haven’t measured the power usage in summer and winter modes … the fans just turn with the wind and produce no power except satisfaction. Besides, it hasn’t been in existence for a summer yet ;)
the song is ‘Bad Trails’ by Battles - their album ‘Mirrored’ is one of the best albums from 2007, check it out.
oh and arm rests are difficult to create from fans.

It’s just a waste of fans - idiot. I see a lot of them are older models too - idiot.
