Who loves beer? I’m sure you do. Most of you do. But did you know that those beer bottles could be used as a solar water heater?
With a little creativity, Ma Yanjun, a Chinese carpenter, had decided that he could create a solar water heater. He arranged the bottles in rows on a board. All these bottles are connected to a hose. The water would flow through the hose and into the bottles. The bottles which are set on the roof would be heated by the sun. And there comes the heated water.
The creator said, “I invented this for my mother. I wanted her to shower at any time more comfortably. A real solar water heater is too expensive to me, so I came up with the idea of making one on my own. I hope this invention can be promoted nationwide, and allow mothers in undeveloped rural areas to have a hot shower.”
Nice job!
