Mini Stirling at work
« on: December 12, 2025, 08:26:34 am »
I wasn't sure if this little Stirling was up to doing any actual work and was agreeably surprised.
It's one of Jin's mini creations, can't recall the model number (I have a few of the similar sized engines) , it runs equally well in both directions and you can see it 'auto-reverses' part way through the clip:

That is most certainly impressive performance being demonstrated by the little Stirling Dave!

I believe that might be the J06I model, though I do get a bit confused trying to remember all of those engines in that series!?!?

Very nice set up Dave, I also was impressed by the Solars power as well.
