I have a flashlight you shake to power it. It uses magnetivity to generate DC, which I believe it stores in a capacitor. I can share a pict if someone would like it.
My dog runs all day long. Burns a ton of calories. I'd like a light on his collar that charged during the day, then lit up when it was dark out. He's black, so it is very hard to see if he is standing by the door at night waiting for me to let him in. The light in the closed in back porch doesn't help, because it reflects off the door glass from the inside.
What would it take to build an LED collar light that stored up DC during the day while he chases rabbits, then lights the LED in the dark?
