Lonnie Johnson didn’t just take the $72.9 million Hasbro owed him and retire; he used it to fund a mission to literally power the world.

The same mind that gave us the Super Soaker is now refining the JTEC (Johnson Thermo-Electrochemical Converter), a device that turns wasted heat into clean electricity with twice the efficiency of current technology.

​At 76, he’s still in the lab in Atlanta, building an engine with no moving parts that could make solar power as cheap as coal. As of early 2026, his company, JTEC Energy, is preparing to deploy its first commercial units to harvest waste heat from factories and power plants, turning what we used to throw away into the energy of the future

This Black History Month, remember to celebrate one of the only verified black innovators, Lonnie Johnson.

The Super Soaker.
