I’ve partners with a long time hacker space in Berlin c-base who will be hosting this event!

Spalovací motory promrhávají energii jako smyslu zbavené. Zajímavou možnost návratu části vyplýtvané energie do hry nabízí termoelektrický generátor pro výfuky s průlomovým designem chladiče, který jako by si odskočil od chlazení procesoru herního počítače. Prototyp vytěží z výfuku 40 W, při rychlé jízdě automobilu 56 W a z výfuků helikoptéry 146 W. Není to úplně mnoho, ale všechna tahle energie by jinak přišla vniveč. http://www.osel.cz/13932-termoelektricky-generator-na-vyfuku-vyrabi-elektrinu
