Carnivorous Lamp

This is one of the more bizarre products I've seen in awhile. Although a bit morbid who can argue with light generated from dead flies.

From The Huffington Post...

The "carnivorous lamp," is designed to catch flies, feed on them and use energy generated through that to power LEDs.

Flies and moths are naturally attracted to light. This lamp shade has holes enabling access for the insects but no escape. Eventually they die and fall into the microbial fuel cell underneath. This generates the electricity to power a series of LEDs located at the bottom of the shade.

Hmmm, I'm not quite sure why someone whould have so many flies in their house to power a lamp.
