I'm interested in strapping one to my wood burner chimney to generate 12 volt electricity,

I'm guessing you're talking about Peltier modules, they don't produce a lot of power, we used to have a fan that sat on top of the wood burner, used heat to circulate the air. Modules are easy to get on Ebay / Amazon

Got fans activated by heat on top of my wood burner. They help to propel heat in to the room. I doubt you would generate much electricity with a generator in this situation. My old woodburner had a heat exchanger on the back linked to the radiators that heated the house. Maybe worth exploring that?
