enLighten Illuminator

thingiverse

I'm experimenting with a unique device that whacks a ball against magnets, generating electricity through an LED. Unfortunately, the voltage and current aren't strong enough to light it up yet. However, I believe with some improvements, this gadget could produce a decent amount of light. If successful, I can envision various applications, such as decorative lights on traditional Mexican jackets or industrial accents on Full Metal Jackets. It might even be used to illuminate printer beds as they move. The possibilities are endless. To make it work effectively, the device needs more coils and motion to sustain electricity for a longer period. A 3D-printed iron core would also enhance its performance. I plan to continue working on this project in due time, but feel free to take on the challenge yourself!
