    100 kilowatts is not that much power for something this big. It's about enough energy for 30 homes.

    Add some bling/diamonds, and that thing could very well be a Lil' Jon chalice.

    @Hiphopopotamus: I'd like mine back as well.


    Shouldn't they have made it black though so it absorbs more heat?

    @Log1c: isnt black when every color is being reflected and it blends to become black. as in when you look closely at a crow, you can see tons of colors.

    @Sir Gibler: No. There is a reason why a black car gets so much hotter than a white car. Black absorbs light, thus making it the absence of color.
