The solar powered LightCap™, the water bottle with a light in the lid. The LightCap is the brightest idea you’ve ever seen. The LightCap is an unbreakable one-litre water bottle. The cap has a built-in waterproof solar panel, battery pack and powerful, long-lasting LED light. Fill it with your favourite drink and never worry about finding it in the dark again.
With just a four-hour charge of sunshine the LightCap will stay bright for hours while the rechargeable Ni-Cad batteries will last for at least 300 cycles. Set it in the sun or hang it from a railing during the day and you’ll have light all night long!
The solar power unit is totally sealed; in fact, it is molded in from the top (outside) of the cap so there’s no possible contact with the contents of the bottle. There’s also a handy waterproof switch on the cap that lets you change from the white LED (bright), to red (preserves your night vision), or turn it off completely. You can leave the red light on all night (minimal energy draw) so you can easily find the bottle; then switch it to white if you need a light!
The water-bottle and cap combo weighs only 312g. The LightCap stands 21cm tall and 9.5cm wide and has nearly a litre capacity.
