Solar-Powered Window-Mounted Light

This Solar Window Light has been created to provide solar lighting that is small and easily portable to provide illumination for a range of windowed areas. The light has been designed to be stuck onto the inside of a window to charge through the day and provide a powerful light at night.

The Solar Window Light is stuck onto the inside surface of a window by three suction pads. These pads securely fix the light onto the window to allow the solar panel to charge during the day to illuminate at night either on that window or to be taken off and placed elsewhere. The suction pads and the lights size allow you to be able to take the light with you for use when out in a caravan, in a boat, for use in a shed or in a cabin.

Each light has 6 LED bulbs within it. These allow the light to produce a powerful illumination while using little electricity due to the LEDs energy efficient qualities. The solar panel charges two rechargeable AA Ni-MH batteries within the light, these can be replaced or charged elsewhere if needed. The LEDs will produce light for over 12 hours when the batteries are fully charged. Some thought is required in positioning these lights when charging them to ensure they are receiving enough light to charge adequately.  Each light has two different light power settings and if you still require more illumination additional lights can be brought and positioned onto windows to create a lighting pattern.

The light measures 9.5 cm (3.74 in) in diameter, though taking into account the sucker pads the light then measures 12.5 cm (4.92 in) at its widest point.  The Solar Window Light is a convenient eco-friendly lighting solution for areas which receive a decent amount of sunlight during the day but lack adequate lighting at night. It can be used in a wide range of places to provide solar lighting and easily moved elsewhere when required. The light is also ideal as a nightlight for children, where you don't need to worry about the energy costs associated with leaving a light on overnight.

The Solar Window Light is available for around £20.
