Read, study or work after sunset with up to 300 lumens of light. According to VeraSol performance data, solar charging provides 6.1 hours of lighting per day, while a full battery provides 6.5 hours under the stated test conditions. However, actual runtime varies with sunlight, brightness setting and phone charging. For this reason, choose a lower light level when you need longer evening use. In addition, the portable form makes it easier to bring light to the task at hand.
Because it is rated IP65, ECO Essential is dust-tight and protected against water jets from all directions.
The 4,000 mAh LFP battery stores solar energy for lighting and smartphone charging. Because battery wear affects how long a lantern remains useful, battery care matters throughout its life. In addition, a replaceable battery allows the lantern to remain in use when the original battery wears out. As a result, replacing one component can extend the useful life of the whole product. This also helps households retain access to light while reducing the need to replace the complete lantern.
USB phone charging lets households use stored solar energy for a mobile phone as well as evening light. For example, a charged phone can support calls with family, work and everyday services. However, lighting and phone charging draw on the same battery, so the available energy must cover both. For this reason, charge the lantern in direct sunlight and choose the light level to suit the evening's needs.
The ECO Essential solar lantern combines up to 300 lumens of light with USB phone charging, a 4,000 mAh LFP battery and IP65 water and dust protection. Optional FM radio/MP3 player.
