List cc Crispin I spent quite some time with the main force behind this technology, Craig Jacobson, during the March GACC meeting in Phnom Penh. Pretty sure I wrote about this device at that time. I am including Craig in this response in hopes he can give us more on company plans - and especially costs. Their website says they are in business in Kenya.
I handled one of the device's ceramic chips (that need periodic replacement) - and broke it! Craig was not at all concerned. I vaguely recall that it had a value of only a few cents. I am impressed by the device and its history. I hope that others on the list in a position to try it out commercially will do so. Seems likely to be able to compete on economic terms with thermoelectrics.
