Anyone use one of these? I'm intrigued by the concept.
Does it work as advertised?

That would be awesome down here in Florida. I would buy it in a heart beat...if it ever goes on to the market.

It would be nice if they printed the wattage consumed per/sq ft of area as well a larger version available to wrap a conical.
If it's working off a peliter concept it would be a energy pig.

I hope I'm not insulting a member on here but that website is not nearly as informative as it needs to be for a new product and what appears to be a start up company. .... How the hell does it work!? can you only use it with 5 gallon carboys? how about a 6 gallon carboy? What temperature ranges can you use it for? Any product specs....?
I don't mean to come down hard I just get irritated to see poorly described products. It might be the best product ever but if you can't sell me the idea you can't sell me the product. ---- end of rant and being a a jerk.

I agree, limited to only one size, 6 gallons would show a little more leg. Coming to market it should of been 100% ready to sell with all specs and prices or the intrest will fade quickly before it gets launched.
My question, if it makes cold below ambient a set number of degrees how does it dissipate the opposite in degrees heat released?
Looks to be a Peliter design which have a rather low operating efficiency. Spin electric meter spin.
If they designed and tested it for conicals this would expand their market of buyers.

You can file a patent on almost any idea way before you ever have a working model. Building a temp control system is no easy undertaking, at least not within a reasonable budget.
