Ok, I really hate to shit all over somebody else's livelihood, but this whole project seems like a total waste of time.<p>A dehumidifier isn't a complicated mechanism. This is not a novel invention. It also isn't going to produce a sustainable amount of drinking water at a price affordable to the people who need it most.<p>The team running this seems to just be a group of friends who have none of the experience actually make a difference.
We've got an Artist/Engineer, and artist, another artist, another Engineer and a product manager who have no meaningful job descriptions (apparently they "do things"), A "Web Engineer", and an advisor whose only task appears to be possession of knowledge of chemistry. It doesn't seem that this team was chosen due to what they could accomplish, but instead because they all pitched in to get an IndieGoGo project going...<p>I'll give them credit for their cause. At least their hearts are, presumably, in the right places, but this little device isn't going to change the world even a little bit. It would win the science fair without a doubt, but it's not much more impressive than that.
