Heat goes in. Heat goes out. It's already thermalized.
You can't kill what is already dead.
The right question is how much heat escapes? This will depend on time, and they seem to be claiming 12 hours effectiveness which would seem to imply half of the heat escapes at max storage somewhere between 3 and 24 hours.
- adammarples 4y agoNo, the right question is "what is the efficiency of the system". It already entirely encapsulates the lesser question of how much heat escapes.
- Schroedingersat 4y agoThat question has no defined answer. It's like asking 'how many cups of water should I drink'. Or 'how much deisel does my bicycle use'. It depends on both time and how full it is. Possibly also how full it has recently been as well in the case where it is filled unevenly to reduce loss. Without anything more specific than '1% loss a day' from their marketing copy, it's difficult to say, but probably "about 90% in typical use" if you want to be even more reductive than that rather than encouraging clear communication.
