"Doesn't matter what gear the vehicle is in, just the temperature differential between the "cold" side and the "hot " side of the junction."

Does this mean thermoelectric exhaust generators as these, work better in cold climates?

There has been a lot of talk here recently re retaining, reusing wasted heat...all these proposed/suggested systems do in fact work, but cost is high in retrofit mode...

Probably by the time we get it right everyone will be going electric?
