Fantastic, really gets my Adrenaline flowing. I love this stuff! I learned how to drive on an old Poppin Johnny when I was 7 years old. A sound to never forget...
1930's Low-speed diesel engines (as used in ships and other applications where overall engine weight is relatively unimportant) can reach effective efficiencies of up to 55% (Wikipedia) Modern common rail diesel engines may have an effective efficiency of up to 43% old school heavy slow running iron still kicks the shit out of "modern" day engines & dont end up in a scrap heap 15 years later

they can use those flames form tubes to run some stirling engines for energy or something useful for them instead of burning fuel for nothing
Back in the day those flames provided light, there weren't doing 'nothing'.
We have an entire world where energy is being wasted 24/7 and this guy is complaining about a display that runs maybe a few times a year...........

They can burn several years on what John Kerry's wife's private jet burns in an hour.
