#9 Flashlight Powered By Body Heat

Flashlights are also guilty of dying quickly when you start putting them to use. Ann Makosiniki has come up with a creative solution for that. Using Peltier tiles; devices that generate electricity from heat, she used thermal energy that is present in our hands to power her LED flashlight. It is now discovered that the power generated using this method is more than enough to power a flashlight.

#8 Body Temperature Textile Charges Phone

A team at Southampton’s Electronic and Computer Science Department developed a material that takes advantage of the heat in your pants and converts into electricity that can be used to charge phones. The material isn’t limited to pants either; it seems to be possible for this to be incorporated into sleeping bags as well. But it would take a while for the device to get completely charged though.

#7 Urine-Powered Mobile Phones

Researchers from the University of Bristol have created a fuel cell that uses bacteria to break down chemicals in urine. This process builds up electric charge which is then stored in a capacitor that can be used to charge your devices. But currently this apparatus is in the size of a battery car and scientists are currently working on making it a bit more compact to make it much more usable outside the laboratory.
