By gods. It doesn’t matter what technique you use, it’s still just a dehumidifier! The immediate limitation is the humidity of the air, and deserts aren’t known for being very humid!

Well… There would also have to be water to actually collect from the air. Thunderfoot made a really good video about these dehumidifiers when yet another one popped up on Kickstarter claiming to end water shortages.

It’s a dehumidifier. There’s nothing to patent that hasn’t already been patented.

It really is. I’ve seen at least a handful of these on Kickstarter before, and before Kickstarter was a thing I’m pretty sure I saw something about “revolutionary new technology” like this in a TV documentary.

So… Another dehumidifier… We’ve been over this before.

Many times.

Many many times.

The Fallout style corporate dystopia isn’t coming in the future. It’s today. It’s right now.
