Luci Lanterns are a range of inflatable solar powered lights suitable for everything from outdoor adventures to lighting your backyard. Lightweight, waterproof, and easy to carry, Luci Lanterns are a clean, safe and affordable way to light up your life when you're off the grid. How does a Luci Lantern work? - a solar panel built into the bottom of the lantern absorbs the sun's UV rays and stores it in a lithium battery (it will charge fully with 7-8 hours of sunlight). While it is being charged or while you are travelling, the lantern stays compressed in a compact package. Then, when you need to use it, simply inflate the lantern and switch on the bright LEDs to get the benefit of a clean, reliable source of light for hours.
