So /sci/ loves to quibble about energy sources fairly often, what do you guys think about this redox power cube thing? It looks like some pretty advanced materials science was required to produce it, and the company producing them claims they can power entire apartment complexes, strip malls etc. by themselves

> redox power cube thing?
Yeah, batteries are still many times less efficient, than gasoline motors, do you really think this volume can do this amount of power? No. As a matter of fact, in can not.
Also, the only energy source I know ceased to exist 14 billion years ago. Aint no energy sources on *this* planet. <bragging old cowboy pic>

I count 182 sides to this thing. It is very much not a cube.

1930's technology that was in use in gasp... the 1930's. (well, usable.) Energy has gotten expensive enough that 80 year old technology can become a viable marketable source of income.

>>	Anonymous Sat Sep 28 06:47:57 2013 No.6053750 >>6053703 The LED lights indicate when a portion of the device is malfunctioning, LED's consume very little power if I'm not mistaken.

>>	Anonymous Sat Sep 28 07:39:29 2013 No.6053774 >>6053750 Still that's pretty inaccurate, unless there are exactly as much cells as there are leds. Also no sense in that big square light anyhow.
