Maybe I oversold the fun-ness of it. The most common failure mode is that it goes into loops and you come back to find it exhausted the output length without getting anywhere.

Electrical generation is largely separate from imported crude oil (what the article is about). It takes a lot more than $5K to build a system that can replace a household's energy use. For 24 hour coverage you need substantial battery
