Light Features
- Totally redesigned electronics - an electronic "boost converter" provides high efficiency LED drive and maximizes solar panel and battery use.
- New circuitry provides three settings in both Task Light & Room Light modes - this will allow for extended periods of use - conservatively, fully charged batteries provide, high 4/5 hours, medium 8/10hours and low, 16/20 hours of task light/room operation.
- Batteries are air-cooled with each battery isolated in its own compartment and suspended with vanes to allow heat to be radiated away from the light when charging so that the batteries remain closer to ambient temperature.
- Single mold case vice bilateral symmetry and no screws to hold the light housing together. Light is very water resistant
- Six LEDs for normal illumination, and three wide angle higher power LEDs for room illumination - this is a result of the funding we received from the Rockefeller Foundation. A single switch allows users to click transfer between lighting modes.
- Three (3) NiMh batteries - greater efficiency and better for the environment - we no longer use NiCad batteries Totally redesigned carabiner attach point allowing for one-hand use
- Uses and Benefits: Emergencies - very useful for night time search and rescue, car breakdowns, blackouts, and power outages due to storms, tornadoes, and hurricanes, camping, all outdoor activities and an essential part of every family’s emergency kit..
