Seems

to be about 5 years too late as a story.

No.

It is now out of the lab and now ready for production. At £1,500 to
£2,000 initially, it is the price of a quality gas boiler. And will cost
half of what? Of what electricity cost to heat the house? If half of
what gas is then this is a breakthrough. Then if a gas powered Stirling
unit is used to generate the electricity, then maybe even cheaper to run,
like 1/8 to 1/4 of current gas costs.

There's one born every minute.

They claim 200% out. So a 3kW heater will give 9kW out. About the same as
gas to run.

Let's see if there's a money back guarantee.....

Or part and service backup with friendly staff and music while you wait on
the phone.

It was on breakfast TV an the man held it up. Richard & Judy next!
