CES 2009 is proving to be an eye candy for techno freaks, but at the same time it is gratifying the ecologists with its conscientious products. After the Hymini Portable Wind Charger, miniWIZ has come up with its latest product, an outdoor lamp that illuminates old plastic bottles with the sunlight.
Powered by 0.18 W solar cells, the SolarBulb gets fully charged within 3-4 hours and will provide incessant light for around 6 hours during the night. Clad in UV-ABS weatherproof casing, the lamp is suitable for use in all climates and comes with an incline-able top that can be conveniently turned towards the sun. It can be installed in a tick to any bottle with or without fluid in it, and when its sensor detects gloom automatically, the LED lights illumine.
Expected to be priced at around $23-25 each, the green bulb that isn’t available for purchase now will soon be on hand with one or two LED bulbs in an array of colors. This looks like an attractive design to turn all your used plastic bottles into only one of its kind solar powered light fittings, right! Therefore, all those eco-techies out there get one soon…
