Soda Can Solar Heater Project

This video shows the process I went thru when building my first solar heater. It provides heat to an 8' x 8' bathroom in my shop. We have had several cold days (daytime temp in the lower 20's) and the room temperature maintained 75 degrees.

Very nice product. As a matter of fact, everything looked really good. I may expand into wind power in the near future so I'll be sure to keep you in mind.

Thanks for post

 G'day. Thanks for posting that. Brilliant.! Um, to indulge in competitive recycling... My SunFoils use sheet aluminum off-cuts, from the Ultralight Motorglider I built using 2nd-hand Core-Sample Tray-Covers bought for42cents/lb To streamline Solar Panels I use faceted aerofoils. To cool the PV, the fairing's a thermosyphon; to prevent trailing facet stalling , the Inlets ramscoop 1.4 Bar. to Airflow-Control Vents... So, search 'solar thermal ramjet'.! Ciao!
