Saturday Night Fever solar tiling

Meet the eco version of John Travolta's dance floor. Perfect for performing synchronised group dance moves, the SolarBrick is basically a tough plastic brick filled with an LED light, a photovoltaic solar cell and a capacitor , which functions like a rechargable battery. The net result is 12 hours of nightlight, provided the brick gets an hour's direct sun or 8 hours in the shade. They're designed for outdoor use, waterproof, fit to drive over and apparently good for ten years' use without maintenance. [via hippyshopper | More at treehugger]
