...the BIG question is: what was the temperature of the thermopile? How HOT was the air from the hairdrier?

AMPS = VOLTS / OHMS

...from his words: 3.6 Volts / 3.5 Ohms = 1.03 Amps, but as mentioned above, the motors' Counter-Electro-Motive-Force (CEMF) is gonna lower the usable current below the simple 1.03A source value.
