Yup, a student built a hand heat powered torch back in 2014, and the torch needed 6 mW to power. The torch lit up, but barely. Torch... -

256bits replied to the thread Peltier thermopar for hand heat charging battery.And for how long would the 6mW last, as the tube would lose cooling as hand heat warms it up, and the device in turn lose electrical... -
256bits replied to the thread Peltier thermopar for hand heat charging battery.The whole human body at normal rest/light activity generates around 100W of metabolic energy production. If all the energy production... -
