Idk why people are saying "infinite power". Cause it's not It's just using the extra heat. Closed energy systems are impossible due to how thermal dynamics work, but more efficient energy systems are always possible

Seems counter intuitive. Deliberately creating 300 degrees C just to power a few diodes?

You can't use it a method of cooling either, as it does nothing at rtp.
