Are you exhausted of calling the electricity board for those grating power cuts during summers?

Heat beating the shit out of you and all you do is clutch a phone in your hand and keep mounting your telephone bills (special reference to the sub-continent), all in vain -- right?

Be intrepid enough and break the time-honored, orthodox lazy shackles just like this 78 years old man named M.B Lal.

He invented an 'ice-cooler' all by himself.

Find out, how you can make an ice-cooler for yourself

1)Take a wooden box

2)Create spiral grooves in it

3)Put a metal foil on them

4)Place a metal box full of ice in it

5)Place a powerful fan (the air will be forced to move around the cold metal box, in a spiral dictated by the grooves. By the time the fan pushes out the air it will actually cold).

Eight kilogram's of ice can cool your room for at least 9 to 10 hours. Even the fan, which is very powerful, uses less than half the energy of a 60-watt bulb.
