    Thanks for doing the legwork on this - I was just going off my basic understanding of entropy and it’s nice to see examples of real-world experience and numbers.

      I can nerd out about appliance efficiencies for days! (help), always glad to help spread the good word of that sweet, sweet COP (not to be confused with the bad type of Cop).

      Tech Ingredients did a pretty great video about easily improving efficiency of solar panels by adding an enclosure and some box fans to the back of them, which seemed to have no real downsides, so I’m quite intrigued to see how he’ll drastically improve the efficiency of that air conditioner in his next video.
