Hello,
The time is about right.
I am launching a crowdfunding campaign Octomber 2021 in order to bring my lamps to production.
Campaign’s main theme is my thermoelectric lamp model
Also will be available the electrified lamps (converted per specs)

Dude, you are an artist and a light master! I have a couple of old railway light the I would love to mod but I am afraid to tinker with.
Hello mattlward,
Thank you for your kind words.
As everything in life, you start small and keep going

It looks beautiful. Love the steampunk aspect of it. Absolutely fantastic.
Thank Unheard you for your kind words.
If you would like them, consider supporting us in the upcoming campaign.
thanks
If you like the steampunk aspect of those, i believe you will find interesting my future plans…
Cheers,
Barou
Hello,
The campaign is live at:

Feel free to have to visit and support.
I really love this concept! So much heat energy is lost from flame, so it makes a poor means of illumination. Using that heat to power LED bulbs is clever.
I wonder if there may be a way to further optimize this. The wick flame component is exposed and gives off light, but would it make sense to totally contain this part, whereby no heat escapes (e.g. no glass) and the sole source of light is from the LED bulbs? Also, within the “furnace” component, you could incorporate a piezo electric spark generator, so that no matches are required.
Myself as well 
Hello nbjly,
My campaign is live in kickstarter as mentioned above. It is a pre-sale scheme more or less for reasons explained there.
Feel free to participate and eventually get one.

@Xevious,
Thank you for the suggestions.
First, in that lamp the flame is wonderful to look at. If you hide the flame… or just make it a complete combustion’s blue flame then half of the magic is lost. Look my views on flame and burner here: The Burner - Barou's Thermoelectric Lamps
I am really considering in my next models having an AAA battery for easier start-up, but again i am double thinking against making the lamp more complex and stealing the firing up ritual.
Lastly, with kerosene or liquid wax as a fuel, a piezo throwing a spark would not do the trick. It takes a mini high voltage transformer, and a robust li-ion cell so as to provide a streamer of high voltage thus igniting the wick. Can be done of course, but i would prefer this to happen in a future thermo-model like a chandelier.
As always, suggestions are a pleasure.
Cheers,
Barou
Love this! 
Thank you DBSAR for your support!
Hello all,
it is more than 10 days now and so far two brave backers support my new lamp design.

A big thank to them!
With the right project push, maybe soon many of you can witness the magic of a working Electrophorus lamp.
Once you see it going , it will change your definition of a kerosene lamp. 
cheers,
Barou
