A designer by the name of Wu Jian has come up with a concept for an eco-friendly battery gadget.

As you can see from the photo above, the PowerCube is a beast, but is perfectly suited to military, marine, island camps, construction sites, cell phone towers, and emergency situations. (more…)

A glass screen sits on either side of the fire to protect the flame (or apparently to enhance it according to the description). (more…)
