I actually thought that the mention of funding was a wee joke from the start, but have just followed the OP's link and it looks like "indiegogo" is a general purpose fund raising site, funding some interesting projects such as GravityLight: lighting for developing countries. | Indiegogo.

Well I never.... I suppose one learns something new every day! Afraid the cynic in me remains.... well, cynical, but best of luck to the OP..... Suppose that if you don't ask, you surely won't receive!!
