1.6 Billion People In The World Don't Have Electricity — So Here's A Cool Solar-Powered Light Called 'Luci'

"1.6 billion people in the world don't have access to electricity, says the founder of a company called "MPOWERD."

These folks and another 1.5 billion people on lousy electrical grids often use kerosene-powered lamps to see at night.

The problem with kerosene lamps is that kerosene is expensive, and the lamps pollute the air that these folks breathe. So kids grow up with clogged lungs, etc.

They're light and flexible.

You can buy them for $15.95 apiece."
