Illuminator Wind-Up Light
by TreeHugger on 01.31.05
With TreeHugger having already collected the wind-up radio, mobile phone charger, marine battery charger and even the bicycle driven projector, the Illuminator should feel right at home here, in such company. Wrap three bright, unbreakable, long life LEDs inside a tough ABS housing. Connect them to a rechargeable Lithium battery and allow the user to charge that battery, with a carefully hidden winding handle. Wind for a mere minute to walk for a hour along a darken path. Not bad for 61.oz (173g). $28 USD from ::MOMA Store, but we have seen them cheaper elsewhere. First spied in a copy of I.D. magazine. [by WM]
