Here's another....

Very short video of...

A Free Breeze Stirling Cycle Stove Top Fan...

These were made in Canada in the first decade of the new millennium.
I don't think they have been manufactured for at least 10 years.
Original cost was around $209 USD and $299 Canadian.

This fan is very quiet. 
Our kitchen is noisy this time of day.

Yes I tried it out several times on my stove when I 1st purchased it since then though it's been collecting dust I originally bought it because I'm into steam engines hot air engines and in the last few years the miniature hit and miss engines I also collect the real size hit and miss engines when I can find them for around $300 or less I've been fortunate in the last year I've bought several in the 100-200 dollar range.

Gil,

If the Lord had a Steam Room, it'd look like yours!  Absolutely amazing, beautiful engines.

I wish I had pulled the trigger when they were still making them.

And... here I am 20 years later and I finally got one!
