The
wilderness got you crying in your tent? No problem! This month, a Japanese
company is coming out with an LED lantern that runs on saltwater.
With the catchy name "GH-LED10WBW," this portable light runs with as
little as 350 milliliters of saline -- roughly a cup and a half, according to
Tech-On writers Masaru Yoshida and Nikkei Monozukuri. OK, granted, that's an
insane amount of crying, but a few drips could keep the light on slightly
longer.
The light works because saltwater acts like an electrolyte between magnesium
and carbon rods inside the device, producing electricity, Gizmodo's Andrew
Liszewski explained. The salty setup will be good for eight hours before
requiring more saline. It could also hook into a USB cable and power small
devices.
