I sort-of feel that anything which uses electricity purely for a thermal effect, is actually in the carnot engine space and not actually "electric" in any meaningful sense of the word. They could have modified a stanley steamer to boil water electrically, and made similar claims (ball bearings aside)

But undenyably very .. cool?

Well he does claim it's a thermal engine, not an electric one .... and it runs, um, not-cool
