A quick and dirty black body radiation demonstration... there was a haze as well as several less than ideal aspects to it, but it illustrates the concept... nutshell version from top to bottom; the "probe", stabilized and agreeing ambient temps, how it was carried out, the difference registered, as much of the haze using moonlight as a cell camera can capture, and once again in agreement for ambient.

  Let me guess.  You've been using vodka as a stock for cold storage and the fridge has been tapping the source...

Why would he want to do that?

Much more interesting to guess what does what.  :o

Pretty much everything but the air exchange included here... but at present, it's a doozy... ~100W of nearly 24/7 hell-on-lead that needs to be addressed... I'm still taking that directly from the grid... All of the other loads are going thru the batteries. Even tho this only represents ~ half the physical storage capabilities of the battery box, moving that load over (even once reduced and otherwise mitigated) doesn't exactly leave me dazzled... Glad I like challenges. ::)
