Solar bottle skylight in Niger, Africa

While in Niger working on a hospital we had the opportunity to build and install a simple bottle skylight in a worker's dark little house, showing a young man how to do it in the process. Even the single 1-liter bottle made a big difference inside the house and really brightened it up. It only works during daylight hours, of course, but the folks seemed really happy with it and I expect the technology is spreading over there now.

These photos were taken by my fellow traveler and friend, Jim Moore, and the video was put together by his son, Josiah. I'm using it with their permission. Enjoy!
