Solar Vacuum Tubes

$15.00

Solar evacuated tubes with heat pipes are the most efficient solar hot water heaters on the market. Heat pipe technology and vacuum tubes are not new, in fact the International Space Station use both these technologies. Most laptops use heat pipes internally to cool the mother board, and vacuum tubes have been used in electronics such as TV and radios. In fact vacuum tubes are still the choice for high end amplifiers.
