The UK newspaper (The Telegraph) reported today on Yahoo UK, about a device made by designer Martin Riddiford and developed by the company Deciwatt that uses gravity to produce a light..
The company said it could help many nations that do not have lights in their homes, and especially the people in disaster areas..They call it the gravity light..

It uses a 12kg bag that contains either rocks or earth, and this is threaded through a "patented electricity-generating device" to power a small bulb..
(Here is the interesting part!!)..It takes 3 seconds from the electricity device to LIFT the weight that powers it to create upto 30minutes of light on its descent..It uses no batteries..

Apparently its cheap reliable and safe says spokesman Jim Reeves for the Deciwatt company..
Could this be an Anti-gravity device thats "dressed up?"
What do you think?:cool::D

Not at all an antigravity device. Presumably it takes advantage of gravity as a source of energy. There is very little potential for it to do much else.
 

Thanks for the reply Orpheus..
For any electrical device to lift a weight of 12Kg in 3 seconds requires a pretty powerful motor and pulleys to hoist it up..
The company mentioned neither of these, so how would a small electrical device with no voltage fed into it be capable of lifting up that amount of weight? :)

It probably uses a powerful clockwork spring, but I haven't seen the device so I'm not sure.
 
Thanks for the reply Orpheus.
Can you give me some help one night to take down the Big Ben clock in London UK please??
The spring in that should do the job :D
