This looks interesting.

"The “Fusion Jr.” Home Energy Reactor is in essence a mini-generator that derives its power off of combustible waste material (like paper, wood, yard clippings, and even some plastics) inspired by “Mr. Fusion” as seen in the movie “Back to the Future II”."

Interesting stuff. The peltier cells that are mentioned in the article sound interesting as well... Think I'll have to try and find out more.

    It appears to be a wood gas generator and has nothing to do with  electricity or fusion. I have a fusion powered heating device at my place. It's actually far above my place and moves across the sky each day

Dale, I think that is the appropriate proximity for a fusion device. 

 
Natural gas heat uses 20 tons out of 30. This tiny ad is carbon neutral.
