A magnet alone can not light up a light bulb. There has to be some additional components used to harness enough magnetic energy to light a bulb. It also has to be focused to the correct connectors of the light bulb. EX: Find a strong cylindrical magnet and attach it to a non magnetic rod (i.e. pencil). Build a cylinders housing slightly larger than the magnet with one end open to allow the magnet to be placed inside the opening (i.e. toilet paper roll, tennis ball with hole in it, etc...). Wrap electrical hobby wire (bare copper wire) around the housing many, many tines. Attach the ends of the wires to a small light bulb. When the magnet is inserted into the housing and spun it will light up the bulb. The faster is is spun the more energy is collected. Also, check out the SEG generator using magnetic energy to power houses.

Is there such a thing as a light to put in your camping tent?
Yes. I go camping every summer and use a light in our tent. It is a magnetic device. To better clarify, one side of the magnet is on the back of the light, and there is a separate magnet that attaches to the back of the light. We take the magnet not attached to the light and place it on the outside of the tent at about the same area as we want the light on the inside. Someone on the inside will put the magnet with the light against my magnet and there you have a light in your tent!
Can a magnet and a paper clip light a bulb?
No, a magnet and a paper clip cannot light a bulb on their own. Light bulbs require an electrical current to produce light, which cannot be generated by simply using a magnet and a paper clip.
Can a magnet ruin a ps3?
well if a yellow light of deaf from overheating (witch mine did) a magnet can
Mosquito magnet rapid flashing red light?
The rapid, flashing red light on a mosquito magnet works to draw the insects near. Then, ultrasonic waves harm or even kill them.
Is it possible to connect a light bulb with a magnet instead of screwing or turning?
yes
Is there is a magnet in a torch?
No, a torch does not typically contain a magnet. The main components of a torch are a battery, light bulb or LED, and a casing to hold everything together.
How does a shake up flashlight work?
It uses your energy, a very strong magnet, and the principles of induction. Shake it to "power it up". Shaking the flashlight causes a very strong magnet to pass back and forth inside a wire coil. The magnet's movements cause the light's capacitor to be charged, which causes the light to shine.
Does a light bulb have magnet?
No, a light bulb does not have magnets. A light bulb works by passing electricity through a filament, causing it to glow and produce light. Magnets are not used in the operation of a regular light bulb.
Can magnet stop working torch?
No, a magnet should not stop a torch from working. Torches typically use batteries to power the light, and magnets do not interfere with the electrical circuit in a torch.
Why does a magnet make the filament move in a light bulb?
When a magnet is brought near a light bulb, the magnetic field interacts with the electric current flowing through the filament, causing a force to be exerted on the filament. This force can make the filament move or vibrate, resulting in changes in the brightness or flickering of the light bulb.
How does a dynamo light work to generate electricity for illumination?
A dynamo light works by using a magnet and a coil of wire to generate electricity. When the bike wheel turns, it spins the magnet inside the coil, creating a magnetic field that induces a current in the wire. This current powers the light bulb, providing illumination.
Why does a ray of light within a neon sign bend when a magnet is held up to it?
When a magnet is held up to a neon sign, the magnetic field interacts with the electrons in the gas inside the sign, causing the electrons to move in a particular direction. This movement of electrons can affect the path of the light rays passing through the gas, causing the ray of light to bend.
