3D Printed Mini Solar Power Drink Cooler

[Brian_Krassenstein]

As we get into the latter half of July, those of us in the Northern hemisphere are facing the realities of summer, like the knowledge that after being outside on a hot day, nothing is better than a cool drink. Maker Humberto Velasco has come up with a way to ensure that a cool beverage is at hand, with his 3D Printed Solar Powered Cooler. Designed in Autodesk Inventor, Velasco's design uses the sun's power to charge two batteries that run a fan. Featuring rechargeable batteries, an ice deposit, a fan, and lighting that turns on when the sun goes down, the design is available for download on Thingiverse.

Why don't you use a "PELTIER EFFECT CELL" that makes cold or hot, depending the sense of the electricity? This device is usually used in little car fridges
