Always wanted to turn yourself into a human battery? Well, you’ll definitely need one of these heat-harvesting bodysuits, but with a few more refinements to Nick Zetta’s design.
Put simply, a heat-harvesting bodysuit, or thermoelectric generator, uses difference in temperature to force electron flow. In other words, when one side is warmer than the other, it generates electricity. The idea here was to cover a bodysuit in thermoelectric generators and start working out while outside in the cold, thus causing a temperature differential between his body and the cold air.

Interesting concept! It seems you put all of them in parallel on your spandex thingy! If you put them in series, you should have like a few volts. Also running in cold air is better! it gets your body warm and the heatsinks cold, and one more important thing: those units have direction, if you flip the cold/hot side, you also reverse the voltage output. So perhaps you tied them randomly causing them to fight each other,” said one commenter.
