Gas detector early detection methods relied on less precise detectors. Through the 19th and early 20th centuries, coal miners would bring canaries down to the tunnels with them as an early detection system against life-threatening gases such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and methane.

SALt lamp with the natives of the Butbut tribe for days relying only on kerosene lamps and moonlight to do evening chores. SALt lamp A SALt lamp is an LED lamp powered by the galvanic reaction of an anode with saline water.

The anode must be replaced approximately every six months and the saline water daily; sea water is usable. The SALt lamp was invented and is marketed by Aisa Mijeno, a Filipino inventor and entrepreneur. She is also a faculty member of Engineering
