Solar Cap

How about using this cap on your next survey trip? Or when you need to work on your generator at one in the morning?

New Zealand-based company 2C is selling a range of solar powered LED caps that charge up during the day to provide light at night. All the energy gathering, light-emitting technology is located in the semi-flexible pre-bent beak of the caps including the solar panel and the NiMH battery used to store it.

The cap initially takes about three days of daylight to reach a full charge, after which one day should be enough. A full charge will provide five hours of use on full beam or 36 hours on low beam.

The Solar Light Cap is available in a range of styles and colors, ranging in price from USD$39.90 to $44.90.
