beer cans heat up the solar scene //www.getitdoneaz.com/story/beer-cans-heat-up-the-solar-scene/ sat, 03 mar 2012 15:00:40 +0000 http://dpetrov.2create.studio/planet/wordpress/beer-cans-heat-up-the-solar-scene/ there is a solar fad raging like fire across the united states and beer cans are the main component. washed and black-painted beer cans are being assembled together to create solar home heaters. this video shows a personal solar home heater created from a bunch of beer cans, wood and some foil-backed sticky tape. i would setttle for mirror heating myself, but beer or soda cans that can produce up to 175degree temperatures is certainly a fun alternative.
