This piece is powered by electricity and wind. The bottom box-fan is plugged into an outlet, which blows on the top box-fan generator. The wind causes the permanent magnet generator to spin and generate a small, very safe amount of voltage. This piece also has a stabilizing rod attached to the ceiling.
