Think the Segway is expensive. It costs $1500 for the purafier and generator. $3200 for the Sterling.

STIRLING.

omd.

Ya know, you really are bordering on O.C.D. behavior with that! j/k

So this is what we saw on 60min?

if it is, I am very happy cept for the price tag.

You had to know it would be expensive, though. A new product concept like the Stirling engine is always expensive. And yes, it is, more or less, the same product that was on 60 minutes (at least in concept).

Very Cool, I like how he showed it off at a oil conference... big slap in the face

Yeah, it's definitely ironic, to say the least.

I think I'm glad I haven't figured out what omd and O.C.D. stand for yet.:eek:

OMD is a trade secret :)

OCD is Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.

OMD = Oh My Deity ?

I should've made you sign an NDA. :p

TOO MANY ACRONYMS!!!!! STOP IT WITH ALL THE LETTERS!!!


j/k maybe it's because we all post on here because of an acronym.

F.I.R.S.T.

OMD, Brandon gave it away! ;)

Stirling = definitely cool. :)

Where's this OMD stuff from, anyways?

For what it does and for its total cost of ownership the price is not so bad. Alternative power sources would be comparable in purchase price but would generally be much more expensive in fuel costs. And the purifier equipment itself is, I suspect, much more costly. You have to look at comparative costs not just literal costs.
