Might want to check out Mooltipass. I got mine from tindie and they're worth a look IMO.

Isn't it weird that we'll never (ever?) talk about lightnings as a potential renewable energy source ? in c/[email protected]

Lightning has a peak power of 1TW for 30 microseconds according to Wikipedia, corresponding to an energy content of about 8000 Watt-hours. That is enough to run a 100 watt conventional light bulb for 80 hours, so not actually much energy. You would need to capture about half a million lightning strikes a second if you wanted to power the world that way, for example.
