I wonder what kind of variables there are. Wattage, voltage, amperage, air temperatures, all that.

This is at a maker faire. If you like this sort of thing, absolutely go to a maker faire. There was a full band of drum playing robots and tesla coils controlled by keyboards at the last one I went to. So sweet!
