- AndrewOMartin 5y agoI'm sure I've seen a video of that. I assume it's an older prototype. As I remember, you got any 10 minutes of light from lifting a really quite heavy weight, which looked kind it would quickly get annoying. I feel the pulley system is a direct response to that. One minute of pulling sounds like a decent amount of work for a light, but having two hours before you have to do it again should sweeten the deal
- kumarvvr 5y agoThe weight would be high and lifting up, may not be feasible to all, especially young children. In contrast, having a rope that can be tugged, is a more practical solution. Also, I wonder if such devices can be installed on village well walls, so that the time of the lamp is higher.
