You Too Can Own a Solar-Powered Windmill

Fusion Works!

This miracle generator transforms sunlight into electricity that powers the windmill that…um… well I guess the process stops there. Too bad, though. When I first saw this item on sale at the Lubbock Windmill Museum‘s online store I thought it was a perpetual motion machine.

Still, it’s a fun way to demonstrate the utility of solar power and would make a good gift for fans of fusion energy.

  Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this really a solar powered fan? Hmm…
