Alfredo Moser

On one occasion, imagining a scenario where a small plane might crash in the Amazon, he discussed with his boss the challenge of not having means like a matchbox to start a fire, given the long rescue times in that region.

[6] In the early 2000s, while working in his house, Moser began some tests by installing water-filled bottles on the roof of an unlit room in his home.

Noticing that sunlight refracting through these bottles effectively brightened the otherwise dim room, he improved his next experiments using bleach and polyester resin.

[8] In 2011, Illac Angelo Diaz, Executive Director of the MyShelter Foundation, reported that Moser's invention was in use in approximately 140,000 homes in the Philippines alone.

[9] By 2014, Liter of Light had installed Moser lamps in over a million homes worldwide and expanded its reach across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa by 2017.
