That's really cool. All the best inventions are simple.
A more high-tech version of those could be incorporated in modern Western homes to illuminate lofts - or sheds.

Could be handy if the predicted power shortages occur here in a couple of years.Won't be necessary for the politicians and the like pushing all the green policies which will be responsible for this.They will ensure that they have their own generators at the ready(paid for by the taxpayer of course).Oh sod it,here I go again,off on another rant!
