What people are saying...

.@GravityLight is a pretty cool innovation which could be a source of cheap light in developing markets. How? http://t.co/hYQUvkGs

— Bill Gates (@BillGates) January 3, 2013
“Gravity light set to illuminate the developing world”
— Reuters
“‘Gravity-powered lamps’ offer ray of hope”
— Al-Jazeera English
“Over time the designers say that eliminating the need for kerosene — which can absorb 10 to 20 percent of a household’s income — has the potential to lift people out of poverty, as well as help prevent illness and injuries associated with traditional lamps.”
— Wired UK
“This gravity-powered lamp was invented by London-based designers as an answer for the estimated 1.5 billion people worldwide that have no access to electricity.”
— BBC2: Dara O Briain's Science Club
