Tellurex Corporation‘s tPOD1™ alternative energy power generator produces electricity directly from the heat generated from a common tea candle. The thermoelectric device is about the size of a soup can and weighs approximately 11 ounces. The first in a planned family of thermoelectric Power On Demand™ power generators, the tPOD1™ is designed for off-grid campers and backpackers that need a stable, consistent light and power source when adventuring in the great outdoors. The product will also serve as a critical home and business power generator emergency kit when natural disasters occur.

According to Rich Harmon, Program Manager, “the tPOD1™ can produce approximately 5.1 volts open circuit.” Harmon added, “The tPOD1™ continuously powers on demand a bright LED lamp head for hours at a time and will charge a soon-to-be launched companion battery pack. The tPOD1™ charged battery pack will, in turn, provide a charge to cell phones and smartphones that include the iPhone, Android phone and other smartphones available in the market today.”
