The self charging Faradeus flashlight is this week launched via Kickstarter and is now available to back with early bird pledges available from $45 or roughly £34. If all goes well and the campaign raises the required $7,000 to make the jump into production. Worldwide shipping is expected to take place during December 2018.
“Faradeus doesn’t need any batteries or external charging. It’s power source is inside. Supercapacitor that powers LED is charged by shaking. Electromagnetic or magnetic induction is the production of an electromotive force (i.e., voltage) across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field.
