Globes of different shapes and sizes spun round and round at Tim Knittig’s booth.
“It’s a new solar technology,” he said. “Normally,
the light is converted to electricity to run a motor. Motors can wear
out … this converts it to a magnetic field. So being that they are
supported all in fluid, the magnetic field can push on the North
Pole/South Pole and it just gets them rotating on their own. (Because
there are) virtually no moving parts to wear out, they’re going to last a
long, long time.”
He was one of the 43 vendors at the Cosmo Senior Citizens Centre craft and trade fair on Saturday.
