Parabolic Mirror Array Solar Powerhouse

This is a multi mirror array we made for Nippon Television. The array works well in the sun and also with multi high powered light sources.

  1. Neat stuff Dude! That Nippon thing might really boost your exposure. Japan uses so much nuke power it’s nice to see they’re talking to you

    I am 30:00 into the show.
    The Japanese crew we worked with were AWESOME wonderful! GREAT PEOPLE. Higher ups we never met were:-( they had the final say.

  3. hey Dan, not to be animist, but why don´t you give us the link to the Japanese video to comment and post links to this video? I don´t have any problem with them, I actually love the Japanese culture, but what´s fair is fair.

  4. Congrats on your international tv stardom dan! You are doing wonderful work – keep the green science flowing!

    Just saw the video they did in Japan, they skipped the dishes working and edited me to look like a mad scientist that could not cook meat with lights. LOL ahhhhhhhhh

    Crazy, we got 1200f from our lights, they got 158f.

    We got cut, they got full credit Errrrrr

  6. Hahaha – the marines are gunna teach that guy a thing or two. Keep the vid so you can show him later when he can work a bit.

    Wow it burns sticks and starts fires like my 25 cent Bic lighters. When you actually make something useful call me.

    @madjimms Agreed, they are better now. We have them work a day or two a week with us. 500% better but still room for improvement. One joins the Marines in Feb 2012 if he passes his PT.

    Jeramy is the one who broke my solar panel.

  9. No offense but those two hitting the file cabinet didn’t seem like the brightest bulbs 😛

  10. some professional telescopes used by astronomers use large hexagonal mirrors and put them together so that they get one large primary mirror

    Yeppers, may small ones ship much easier then say a 96 inch mirror. It is a good concept for most to handle with ease. Thanks for spreading the word.

  12. @GREENPOWERSCIENCE Haha his neighbors are probably constantly peeking through their windows going “Frank… Frank! He’s doing it again! He’s trying to power up his death ray. I told you! I told you to call the FBI!”

  13. Really neat to see you with a set up like this somebody had a lot of money to spend on this. Very nice. RON PAUL 2012
