SOccket Ball at Family Energy Day

Socket BallThe famous SOccket Ball comes to San Diego.

The newest prototypes are traveling all around the world and they will be at Family Energy Day on Sept 12. The sOccket 2.0 is a soccer ball fitted with a simple mechanism that harnesses kinetic energy and transforms it into electricity that can be used to charge LED lights and batteries. The ball weighs 5 ounces more than a regular soccer ball, so anyone not named Landon Donovan is unlikely to notice the difference.

Children playing soccer for 10 minutes can "earn" three hours of electricity, a boon in Africa, where in most countries 95 percent of the population has no access to electric power. Bring your kids to learn more about the SOccket Ball at Family Energy Day.
