Solar Lantern

This device demonstrates how we can capture and store energy from daylight to provide artificial light after the sun has gone down.

The Logic Lantern is a stand-alone portable lamp which is powered by solar energy.

During the daytime, the batteries are charged by a solar panel that can be connected to the lamp. Charging is controlled by a microcomputer, which automatically selects the battery float or boost level according to ambient temperature and battery use. When the solar panel is capable of charging the battery, the light is automatically turned off. Depending on the users light requirements, 2 light levels can be selected.

Lamp type: Osram S/E/7W/21 PL-Tube

Power Supply: Built in 12V/3Ah sealed battery - panel capacity up to 7Watts, 12 Volts nominal (7V min., 30V max.)
