Faraday For Fun: An Electronic Batteryless Dice

Step 10Using the Batteryless Electronic Dice

Once the assembly is complete and the two tubes are secured together, the dice is ready for use. Just shake it a few times and a random number would appear. Shake it again and another random comes up. A video of the dice in action is here, also posted in this Instructables video:

The project is really cool, but u call it a batteryless dice. Real dice don't have batteries. Its a really cool idea, but what's the point when you can just use real dice?

But no, a capacitor is a battery of sorts, so this is not batteryless

Respectfully, I know it has become popular to erroneously to refer to a battery, when they are completely two different items. Popular doesn't equal "battery of sorts", so this project use no battery. Yes it's "batteryless"
