The basics behind it is simple enough, but it's biggest downfall is the amount of wear and tear that is incurred during operation. Still a cool thing. :)
Probably they should be investigating new ways to save energy before they spend vast amounts of money. A case in point is that in 2005 the Government, Market Transformation Program had tests made on a new type of cleaner that employs Air Recycling Technology. The results show that it could save 1.5 Terawatt (1,500 Gigawatt) each year in the UK alone. Simply, by changing the type of cleaner we use in our homes. It was originally designed to remove health hazards inherent in the vacuum cleaner.
@arcart0 1500 gigawatts purely by changing vacuum cleaners ? sorry i think thats too much. I doubt the UK even uses 1.5 terrawatts in the entire country. Unless we have millions of Mary Poppins type characters working 24/7 on the rugs.
I keep coming back t this thing.
Love it's homemade feel. :)

Seems like a lot of effort to make an expresso though.
