Why a tree? It'll cost alot less just to have a recharge box or sumthin. I dont want an ugly metal tree sitting in the corner of my room

Well, I don't think it is ugly. You obviously wouldn't buy this if you don't like the art behind it. Buy a flashlight and don't bother to tell us what YOU find ugly.

It's not just a tree, it's also a hatrack.

I'd rather have the tree than a bland, ugly recharge box.

Endelig får vi ordentlige pærer!
It's called "pears" in Danish too.

This is definately an art piece not just a piece of technology, but it does have a practical side (kind-of). I like it but to be honest, I doubt it would be practical for most people to buy an expensive artist flashlight. This is definately an item for a very specific market. I could build something similar to this from ~$30-45 worth of parts (but I bet it would cost alot more to buy) so I would build mine, but I do like the unique design of it. I definately find it interesting.

Its the looks that I find most appealing. It is very cool and indeed would be a modern tech-geek atmosphere enhancement. If you don't like it then you should stick to something with a bit less class that your right brain can comprehend.
I want one of these. How much do they cost? Where do you get them? Do they take credit cards?

Why do people insist on saying "after the jump"? What jump? The pics are right there.

You see the pictures right away because you came to this page via a link which took you directly to "after the jump". If you were on the main page, you wouldn't see the pictures until you clicked on the "more" link.

As for the tree, it really doesn't seem very practical. But if you're into art, it would probably be worth getting

So it's a really big electromagnet that draws a ton of energy to recharge LED bulbs with really small, really shortlived internal batteries. The right brain person is confused. I'll take Andrea's ugly box with better bulbs.
