I have a fascination with self-powered garden lights. I love walking my dog late at night squinting my eyes to see the soft white and blue glows from lawns afar. I think it's cool they're solar powered. They seem to make an ordinary lawn feel magical. I do wish they were more kinetic in their design. Leave it to Demarkersvan to make the garden light of my dreams.
It's called Light Wind. Inspired by Dutch windmills, the little device sports a funky propeller atop the light. The slight breeze sends the propellers spinning storing up enough energy to power the light all night.
Another picture after the jump.
