# Generate Electricity While You Play Soccer

**By Steve Stillwater** · 2010-08-23

The product is called sOccket!

It is a [soccer ball that stores the energy from being kicked and bounced around](http://www.soccket.com/), and then can be used as an electricity source when you take it home. The generated electricity can be used to light an LED lamp or charge a cell phone, for example.

This amazing gadget is the brainchild of a group of Harvard students. It will be a high-end product in Western countries, but profits will go to provide low-cost balls to Third World nations. To see a picture of the socket, go [here](http://livinggreenandsavingenergy.com/soccket-produce-electricity-while-you-play-soccer.html).

Great way to have fun and save some energy!
