MC2 Post 1672 Alfredo Moser --- Bottle Light Inventor

Alfredo Moser's invention is lighting up the world. In 2002, the Brazilian mechanic had a light-bulb moment and came up with a way of illuminating his house during the day without electricity - using nothing more than plastic bottles filled with water and a tiny bit of bleach.

In the last two years his innovation has spread throughout the world. It is expected to be in one million homes by early next year. 

So how does it work?

Simple refraction of sunlight, explains Moser, as he fills an empty two-litre plastic bottle.

Review: Free DD-WRT Network Router Firmware

Most network routers have fairly basic firmware that limits the hardware's full potential. You can change that.

Admittedly, if you actually want to do anything interesting with the hardware, most routers have fairly basic firmware that limits the hardware's full potential.

I know this first hand, as I picked up an ASUS RT-N12 router from a good friend of mine recently to replace my underwhelming Belkin branded one. Although ASUS hardware is mostly of high quality, the firmware felt rather raw and unpolished. With that in mind, I did some research online and found that custom router firmware was available and I decided to give it a try.
