Dump Load units
I am just about finished with a proto type dump load I made using peltier thermocouple devices. These little items are ust what the doctor ordered. My alternative energy systems usually are installed in a shed or seperate room. This area gets very hot in the summer time and very cold in the winter time. These dump load devices will provide cold air for cooling in the summer and hot air for heating in the winter. I usually use outdoor Christmas lights to help keep the AGM and SLA batteries warm during the winter, but this waste energy. Now I can use the dump energy for the wind generators and solar panels to power the peltier devices and provide cooling and heating where needed. During the summer time teh energy room is hot and I try to keep teh temp below 100 degrees (Texas) the peltier units can provide 25 degree differance in temp from their cold side to their hot side. I will use water or anti freeze heat exchange to remove the heat from the hot side and that will run to a water heater exchanger and help to heat hot water for the living area... If you are interested keep in touch for test data on the first proto type.   Arcandspark

I also live in Texas (Austin) and interested on solar systems. Have a little cottage in Canada and trying to learn and decide what do I need.
What do you have ?
