The system can function in air with 20% humidity or less. But these 1,000 liter a day machines are not small, at around shipping container size.

shipping container size

That’s far smaller than I expected. I also don’t imagine it will be cheap. If they manage to make it less than $100,000 then I’ll be baffled. Less than $500,000 and I’ll be excited for the possibilities in my lifetime.

$500,001

"booooring"

I mean, a little. It’s far easier to sell someone on less than half a million than on more than half a million.
