Finished the heating duct. Conclusion, do not move heat by air from a stove. It goes too slowly.. I was disappointed on the heat gain. If you ever want to move heat, sigh, use water for more heatcontent to be moved.

I read your projects and see much ambition. Although it cost a lot of time, keep up the good work!

Well, I was working on laying a 4in isolated flexible airpipe to go from the first floor, through an airshaft aside the chimney down to the first floor to heat the ground floor with the stove on the first.floor (our living and bed room). Bought a thermal camera to see results (and winter optimization) but nothing happened. Turned out the pipe had ruptured inside the air duct. Now have to redo the work... At least I do not have to finish it tomorrow

Nice question to ask. As usual too many projects to cover in this short time 😁.

Closing the lower part of the serre for the winter upcoming. Creating a hatch out of too small hinges but these were available. Also made a rack under there to place the double winter windows which are exchanged in the winter for muskito windows from the summer. Working with wood is very fun.

I am also working on making a small duct to displace heat generated by stove on the first floor to the groundfloor. Have some difficulties finding a right thermostat that turns on over a certain temperature. Unfortunately photo upload is not working for me ATM otherwise I would have shared.

Good tip @Mike D. I want to make lightpoints for my house and sauna house in near future as it's get autumn and winter here. So I will now look for a yellow glass screen for these lights. The yellow I also like more for the warmth. Hope I have bought lights with good CRI which have larger color frequency range and give more natural yellow as result

I'm curious what type of Statistics monitoring system you aiming for @poVoq. I have ordered a 3.7kw panels + special type inverter for direct heating of a boiler and a secondary boiler/other item. And i am intrigued what the monthly differences are in kWh generation and would like to track those. Only I have no idea what I can hook up between the panels and inverter to log.

It was a nice read although a bit short. I wanted to continue. A very good sign, thanks

Good words, schmorpel. You transcribed my thought exactly as is ;P. Hereby a imaginary photo from also the same type of sunflower I saw today in our garden, aiming towards the north? ( I live in northern hemisphere though).

Can you automate the search for a purpose?

Indeed, his videos are interesting in that he shows a lot. His laughing makes me impatient sometimes. Also I wonder with an airturbine like that, how does it perform under load. And a flywheel attached would be interesting

Ive work for a company that develops irrigation equipment solely on water and solarpower. Also we work with smallholder farmere. I am able to learn also how smallholder farmers grow all different foods. To pump with waterpower and solarpower is a bit finiky compared with a fuel pump. We work towards removing the finiky and it is a rewarding goal and the work is very interesting.

The video was nicely made. So much effort and material to gain views only... But nicely made with the shaking when starting the generator and then a sound taking over. the constant rpm with an angle grind turning on was unfortunately not well implemented. Maybe just enough flaws implemented to keep it at the satire level.

Very interesting but compost has some use. I can see we can use water but co2, what to do with that?
