5 star rating   Maureen Sullivan from Dallas, Tx.
This item worked very well in my Physics II class. The fan turned within a few minutes of submerging the metal in boiling water and water with ice.
5 star rating  Very good generator.
da Silva from Rio de Janeiro
It's a great prototype generator and fully works. My students loved.
4 star rating  good demo of power for space travel
Mike from Sandia Park, NM
Used in 5th grade classroom for transformation of energy demo. Students were very interested. It is also a good demo of how outer planet probes can produce power from radioisotope heat sources. This unit needs a fairly large temperature difference to start the small motor but it runs at lower temperature differences
