The South Korea-based company Lumir Inc., that previously created the candle-powered LED lamp, is launching a new similar kind of Lamp. Dubbed Lumir K, it is almost alike except that it uses cooking oil as fuel.
The basic idea behind Lumir K lamp is to turn the thermal energy of cooking oil into electricity. Oil is poured into a small canister with a wick that is lighted up to heat sensors and turn on the lamp.
The fuel container can hold up to 140ml and is enough to light up the lamp for a week, with four hours of usage every day. It takes nearly two minutes for the lamp to turn on the LED light.
Using the Lumir K lamp is easy – just place the lamp over a lit wick and it will turn the LED light on, which is 100 times brighter than candlelight. The LED head is adjustable and can be detached for easy storage.
