I wish they had gone into detail about what makes this device different from Peltier coolers that are available today. You can already get mini fridges that use them, but they're not very good - the total amount of cooling you can get from them is not enough to maintain the temperatures that a regular refrigerator does.

Yeah I have a cooler box with a peltier cooler, but it will only cool a few degrees, not sure I'd trust it as a standalone fridge. Plus its energy use is much higher.

Yep, it's hard to tell if this is a true leap or just marketing polish on incremental improvements
