      Yeah it's just a skylight, they wouldn't work at night and the electric current bit is bullshit.

      I guess its useful if your house doesn't have windows.

      thats what people are saying is going on, that its a sun tube or light tube (just using the water to disperse the sun light), people have used these types of things in gardens and shit for .. well.. a long long time.

      these would work pretty much any time of the day or even if it was overcast, but probably not as well in the dead of night, although they probably would still have some light coming through

      Yeah, there's no electric current running through there.

      well... there are such thing as clorox batteries i believe, not sure how they are made, there is also the people who think its just focusing the suns light through a hole in the roof, which would be possible as well...
      the thing about this is, if its just a suntube or a light tube (using water and a hole to work kind of like fiber optic light) then its not exactly news..... unless this was shot like ... well 20 years or more ago :P

      Homemade batteries are commonly made of common items found around the house. Almost any fluid or moist object containing sufficient ions (charged particles) can serve as the electrolyte for a cell. It is possible to generate small units of electricity from a lemon, potato or glass of soft drink by placing two electrodes into them. A clock by name '"two-potato clock" is commonly available in hobby and toy shops. It contains a pair of cells (each with a potato or lemon with two electrodes) wired in series to form a battery with adequate current to operate a digital clock.

      Clorox bleach battery is a powerful type of homemade battery that can be made using Clorox mixture. It lasts only a week or less, since its electrodes rust very quickly. In the "tap water battery" two special metals (usually made of stainless steel) serve as electrodes it that can be used to light LED bulbs for many days or weeks. There is no need of charging this battery,. Just refuel it with tap water every 4 to 7 weeks.

      By using this type of a battery system, one could simply fill the batteries up with tap water every 4 to 7 weeks, to keep the system cleaned and running well. We estimate the battery life to be up to 15 years. We have been told that some hospitals use this type of a battery as a long life emergency low lighting battery. They store these in there basements and shelf life is 70 years or more, ( without water ). The water and the 2 special metals will produce the electricity, therefore you will never need to charge these batteries, just refuel them with tap water.

      they use stainless steel as one of the metals for conducting the current, since it doesn't corrode.

      as far as making an actual light out of it, i don't see exactly how it would work, but if they are saying if its giving off an electric charge, the only thing i can think of is the water in brazil is so fucking shitty that the metal in the water and the bleach are giving off millions of little electrical charges inside the water (like how a bleach battery works, but instead of 2 metal points its using the metal in the water to conduct) giving it a glow... which seems like a bit of a stretch..... however there is like NO news about this on the internet that is reliable at all ;)

      For my rebuttal: there's no metal in these bottles to act as anode and cathode.

      Clorox and garden variety ammonia works too. You've got to mix them in the closet with the door shut to get it to work though.
