Nobody is challenging the assumption that data centers HAVE to use a shitton of power and water
This is not a fundamental state of the universe, people. We can solve it.
My company already deleted 40% of power usage and 100% of water waste so idk what else you need to hear
We briefed the USMC Advanced Amphibious Assault PMs on our technology Wednesday in Quantico, VA.
The “competition” tried to discourage us.
Don’t we want our warfighters to have the best tech possible? 🤔
Also do you know what happens when you tell us “You can’t”?
Yeah, it's real.
We're installing the first 1MW Elkhorn 970 hydrovaporization chiller this summer.
We showed it off at the Oregon Innovation Showcase this week in Portland.
Oregon is about to learn how to make both data centers/AI factories AND NIMBYs happy.
Zero water waste.
Closed loop cooling like our @ElkhornPro chiller that also reduces total data center power consumption by 30-40%
We will be attending @NVIDIAGTC — ask to see the new all-copper doohickey we’re bringing ;)

At AI rack densities, "physics do not allow air cooling."
Chillers are 15–20% of DC capex ($2M/MW) & 40% of power usage.
@ElkhornPro's chillers delete energy-wasting compressors and red tape w/ ZERO water waste.
Read it: @CrucibleCap's Building a Datacenter Part II cruciblecapital.substack.com…
How to Build a Datacenter (for Dummies) Part I from @CrucibleCap and our friends @GigaEnergy_ @doublezero @get_hydrahost
datacenter spend is going to 10x the prior largest US infra build in history this decade and still many ask us about how sites are built 🧵

Not only is @xAI going to develop the best model for transmuting energy into AGI… @ElkhornPro will delete compressors and water waste from the original data center recipe, reducing cooling energy costs by 30% and environmental angst by 100%

We are now officially in our best father-daughter era.
Elkhorn Products tech: coming soon, to a data center/hot factory/USMC ACV near you.
The U.S. Navy just tapped Elkhorn Products to do the impossible: cool Marine Corps vehicles with nothing but PURE WATER in a closed loop system. No Freon. No compressors. Just physics and a patent-pending trick we call Hydrovaporization™. 🌊❄️
👇 What this unlocks 👇
• 0 HFCs → wipes out the refrigerant logistics tail
• 50% less energy use → more miles or smaller power packs
• Near-silent, low-vibe operation → happier crews, less wear
• Same tech slashes factory & AI-data-center cooling costs across a $206 B market
28 prototypes in, TRL-6 proven. Next stop: Phase II and fleet demos.

COUP AGAINST FREON ACCELERATES: @Krambu_official selected us as strategic partner for deploying our revolutionary cooling to data centers nationwide! No bad refrigerants, 50% less energy use, & turning waste heat into community assets via industrial symbiosis. ❄️🛠️🇺🇸

I'm working on the most boring fucking problem in the world, refrigeration
but it's the most hidden, brittle pillar of civilization, on the edge of collapse
My company @ElkhornPro will change everything.
We just got our first orders for proprietary natural refrigeration systems.
18 months of 12-14 hour days and all my life savings and investments later.
And I couldn't be happier.

It’s not just Teflon: next-gen HFO refrigerants break down into PFAS “forever chemicals”
@ElkhornPro is aiming to end at least 83% of all synthetic refrigerant usage globally
It’s time to upgrade from CENTURIES-OLD TECHNOLOGY
We’re still eating our steel-cut oats tho (+maple syrup)
OATS VS. PFAS: BREAKFAST JUST DECLARED WAR ON FOREVER CHEMICALS
Boston researchers found that scarfing oat fiber 3 times a day cuts blood levels of cancer-linked PFAS by 8%.
These “forever chemicals” - from nonstick pans and takeout boxes - build up in human organs.
Turns out, a humble bowl of oats might help flush them out faster than your liver ever could.
Not all fiber works, but beta-glucan’s coming for the chemical industry’s worst.

In this age of advanced technological corporations, it is nigh mandatory that we return to the age of patrons 🎨
For art, yes. But also, surprisingly, for solo inventors.
The man who creates the next trillion-dollar tech outside a million-dollar lab is vulnerable
He cannot afford lawfare
And the charitable morality of the big corp, beholden to shareholders, lasts only as long as its board of directors tugs sympathetically on the leashes
If and when we make it big, @ElkhornPro plans to open an R&D lab for any garage inventor with an idea. Experiment, productize, patent. We will apprentice high school students and help anyone with questions.
This innovator’s spirit is the dynamo of the human race, propelling us into the future. It must be nourished, shielded, grown.
We will bring back the Age of Patrons, for technology, for art, for wisdom.
It is boring
But warm yogurt and no way to save leftover cream cheese wontons for tomorrow just ain’t no way to live

#KRAMBU slashes AI data‑center cooling 50% with Freon‑free #Elkhorn970: 85 kW/MW vs 170 kW, COP 11.8, PUE 1.09. ~300 t CO₂e/MW/yr cut—more power for GPUs, not compressors—setting a new standard for eco‑friendly, energy‑efficient, sustainable DCs. #GreenIT #AI #DataCenter #LiquidCooling #gpu

We just cut data center cooling costs by 50%. ❄️🔫
Fantastic live tech demo with DC cooling leader @Krambu_official proved that closed-loop water-based cooling can destroy Freon.

Stage two starts tomorrow.
Refrigeration costs cut in half globally.
Labor force able to spend weekends at home.
A 200-year-old industry finally evolves. ❄️
Today, we took the first step toward HALVING data center cooling costs.
Thanks to our incredibly smart and good-looking partners over at @Krambu_official for inviting us to DO IT LIVE, “show, don’t tell,” and cool a stack of prod servers.
The tech is real. It’s coming.
Soon.

Genuinely terrified of the next step for @ElkhornPro:
Sending emails to investors letting them know our tech demo smashed it
…and our first system’s on order.
Me: 18 months of hard work; my house fund, IRA, stocks & crypto
Dad: 48 years industrial refrigeration and a dream
It all led up to this moment.
Shit. Here we go.
