NoPoPo Lantern

Talk about going green in Japan – this compact LED lantern/flashlight device will be equipped with a NoPoPo battery that doesn’t require a power outlet to juice up. Heck, it can rely on plain old water once the power has been drained, and even if you don’t have any of that life giving liquid, there is the option of recharging it using your own urine. Don’t expect it to have the performance figures of Eneloops though, especially when the NoPoPo battery has been rated at a mere 500mAh and has a recharge capability of just four times, making this NoPoPo-powered lantern meant for emergency use. When it dies after a quartet of charges, you can always revert to a standard AA battery instead.
