huh... a peltier (functioning as a generator) attached to an LED. I wonder if this device has been tested for Canadian winters (-30 Farenheight), temperature variance over a year, and what to do with the increased energy generation.
so it also functions as a hand warmer in Canada. I wonder how hot it gets, or what this device uses for a heat limiter. (lot of power in, lot of heat out, potential burns) this should be a good one to watch once the kickstarter orders come out, and see if the production model has any burn complaints from colder regions.
Somebody needs to make a wireless keyboard with pressure switches beneath the keys. When you type, they charge a super-capacitor, which powers the keyboard.
