I recently learned that plants can stay through water evaporation, without using any moving parts.
It made me think about passive cooling in electronics.
Some devices use thermal materials to fill the tiny gaps around components and help move heat away through direct contact.
No fans or airflow needed. The heat just moves through the material.
Idk how relevant this is, the smarter scrubber is already being produced and shipped and i'm not expecting a v2, i just wanted to share about this type of scrubber that's quite common where i'm from, just a bunch of wire loops, by being a single continuous piece it avoids the loose bristles.
(tbf the defacto way to clean a grill here is still just burning the heck out of it, 2nd most common is onion/paper, but if you have a scrubber it's prob something like this or a straw one).
I don't know how much easier this is to manufacture honestly but it looks like it could be pretty trivialized, it's a continuous loop of thin-er- wire twisted between 2 thick-er- ones, the only difference between this and a bristled one of the same 'spun between 2 wires' (the 'pipe cleaner') type is what you put in between the two thicker ones.
I was kinda surprised this design wasn't mentioned in any of the two videos.
There are also other ones that are more similar to the smarter scrubber but instead of chainmail they use woven wire like a chainwire fence, which im guessing is also a lot cheaper and easier to manufacture than chainmail which requires individual circles to be cut and 'sewn' together.
This also works for 'v' type grills which are quite common in lots of places, i guess in America only the rod or flat ones are used which are better suited for the chainmail type.
Was just watching this clip from more perfect union.

Brutal that Amazon/Walmart (and the FTC) are actively ignoring fake made in USA items.
