A Glass of Seawater Powers This Portable Lamp

A team of three Philippine-based inventors has developed a lamp that’s capable producing light for eight hours on a cup of saltwater.

The salt powered lamp uses the same science that's behind battery-making. It differs from batteries in that the entire reaction is safe and harmless. Also, there are no flammable materials or components that go into lamp.

Used 8 hours a day, every day, the team says the lamp can provide light for 6 months (or even over a year if used more efficiently) without having to replace any parts.
