Clock Uses Capacitors To Store Energy and Mark Time

Polish maker Nereus built this great solar clock (Polish language site) that features 12 sets of capacitors salvaged from electronic junk, serving both as energy storage as well as a decorative element. The twin solar cells also charge a battery that moves the hands when there’s not enough light. In addition, it has some fun extra features like a voltmeter and temperature display. [via HaD]
