Well... now I have to come back when I have time... this looks interesting.
This is an intelligent way to recycle old TV and why not make this cooker on a industrial way .?

Great post!!! I have been interested in solar cooking for years, but did not know about the fresnel lens. I had mostly seen things about pretty simple solar ovens. I really need to quit procrastinating and build a solar cooker. I enjoyed the first video; I'll have to watch the other two later. I'm excited by the possibilities of the fresnel lens.
That is so very interesting!
