Peltier Generating More Watts Than A Solar Panel

Having trouble with this video download to this site I am going to post it on you tube and get right back with the youtube access.

This show me placing my hand individually on each peltier one at a time and removing them one at a time. There is a corresponding increase and subsequent decrease in both voltage and amperage. The heat from my hand is sufficient to create the reaction.

They are a problem with your reading

200ma x 20mv is 0.2a x 0.02v = 0.004w * 1000 (devices) -> 4w

So you got nothing, sorry

Try to use a concentrator to get an higher temp on the hot side

Yes I ran the same numbers but:
1000 peltiers in series would read 1000 x .019 volts= 19 volts
The same 1000 peltiers in series would read 1000 x .2 amps = 200 amps

200 amps x 19 volts = 3800 watts.

That not work like that, you need to multiply 0.004w * 1000 (devices) -> 4w

You cannot multiply 1000 with V then multiply by A then multiply again, you have one to much multiplication.

200 amps x 19 volts = 3800 watts / 1000 = the real result 4w
