That is a cool picture

Response to Stirling engine picture
 

25 KW is peanuts in the world of power production. That is a big apparatus for such small reward, and that reward is only when the sun shines. 25 KW should translate to about the powr needed to operate 250 light bulbs rated at 100 watts.

Interesting contraption though.

What do you think of that gizmo, Dave?
