Hybrid Solar Lighting

I'm thinking the same question :/

Is it possible to buy just the optic fibre cable?

ing stations would be directed en masse to what might be described as an highly insulated pressure capable sub terranean " thermos bottle " into which would be gravity fed hot distilled water which would be flash fired into steam which would then be allowed back up to the surface to turn an electricity generating turbine ? the reason for distilled water is to prevent scale buildup which would reduce the efficiency of the reflective surface of the sub terranean boiler

yeah i saw a pgm on tv about this some years ago A japanese scientist came up with this ? called it " sunflowers " So the UV rays are deliberately eliminated ? I was thinking of one possible application of this technology which would utilize the high end high tempurature capable glass fiber optics which would pretty much consist of your concentrating mirror(s) and your bowl shaped gathering lens but rather than separating off your strands to various loacations all the light from multiple gather

That is a beautiful technology!!!

oooooohhh!
how special

mindstormsabrewin spammed that comment word for word at least 100 times across the web. google "Shtupp effect".
Unfortunately, it never lads to anything real.
The light tubre would shatter from the heat generated.

I suppose it is not very difficult to imagine that there will be people who would want the light to be switched off for any sane reason. I was talking from that point of view.
Shutter is a low tech solution, and, as you rightly mentioned, the easiest. But if low tech solution is what we were aiming at, why not build entire house of glass. Then use shutters.
The point of my question was, that this cool technology should come with a switch off button, which is not shown in the video.
