Kirk W Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Quote Elon Explains it a little better, "It's all about the electronics inside. Normally it takes a lot of electricity to create heat. Without this tech, on the space shuttle we would run out of energy, or in your home, the power bill would go way up like it usually does in the winter." "The materials we use in Alpha Heater are the best conductors in the world. Normally you have to force electricity into heat, but since our proprietary conductors have the electrons(electricity) moving so fast on an atomic level, as soon as they hit the heating plates they instantly turn to heat since they have carried more energy with them."

Chalkie Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 56 minutes ago, Kirk W said: Elon's latest scam? Scam by definition means it is a dishonest scheme or a fraud. It is neither of those as there are product reviews from other sources. Do those reviews all reflect the rosy picture painted here? No, they do not but they do not show anything dishonest or fraudulent any more than an advertisement of any other product. Like any product you will find good and bad reviews, reviews of this product seem to be split about 50/50. Consumer Reports rates 149 models of space heaters and unfortunately this is not among them as it would be nice to see an unbiased review.

vermilye Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Musk has nothing to do with these heaters. Like "his energy saving device" advertised a couple of months ago, scammers are using photoshopped images to make it appear that it is his device. I am not a fan of Musk, but nether of these heavily internet advertised devices has anything to do with him.

As I look at those pictures again, you may well be right. It would be interesting to know if he is aware of this. After doing a little digging I was able to find this one. The claim: Elon Musk developed a heater that reduces electric bills to $0 It seems that I was too quick to buy into the Musk connection.
