Reasons why you CANNOT use Peltier for air conditioning

Either you will like this video or not, I decided to summarize a few ideas on this topic. In this video, I am trying to show, why Peltier-based air cooling/air conditioning is a bad idea. These devices are not efficient for cooling, because they cannot cool in the same way as the compressor-based coolers do. It will cost you a lot of work and money to make a Peltier-based AC which is comparable to the compressor-based air conditioners. I am not saying that the task is impossible, but it is not worth doing it. Peltiers are not made for this type of cooling.
