sun-light at home
everybody knows that you can use sunlight to get energy. many of us use it. but very few use it for something significant. this sun-lamps you can buy everywhere are on every balkony, on every garden. they work and they are nice but they are not more than a toy for decoration. as well in the range of the use, people put them usually there where they don’t really need any light.
i have some of them too. i was the first one on my whole block to use them for the balkony. now you see them all over. my idea, a good idea.
i have enough light on my balkony so that i don’t even need a candle any more to spend a evening with friends outside. with less lamps than enough, it would only be less light than enough. at this point i am still the only one, unfortunately. people are not used to think further than decoration, yet.
the new creation takes me even futher than that. my bathroom is inside. no window, so it’s even during the day totally dark inside. now i took some of these lamps again and a few meters of wire, left the panels on the balkony, and got the light there where i really need some.
i have a circuit with sun-loaded-batterys to get light during the night and a second one that works direct, for the light during the day. it’s not the same than the electrical light (that i need to shave or take a shower), but it’s enough to wash the hands or brush the teeth.
this kind of things are more than saving energy (or money) and living in balance with the blue planet. the motivation is also to save lifetime that we whaste dayly switching any buttons. i am too lazy for that.
it works!
