This is a rough prototype, but it basically works. Now to work on the control electronics and software. I'm quite sure there could be many improvements in the condensation side, but it's a prototype that works with a mixture of hacked off-the-shelf parts. Its all about using a 0 to 200W DC supply that is highly variable (solar) and storing coolant to use at a better time of the day. The filter is both for particulates and to drop air pressure suddenly inside the vessel forcing moisture out of the air coming in.
