Self-powered solar illumination device with self-contained power system

摘要

The quest for efficient lighting has been around for generations. LED (light emitting diode) is an efficient way to illuminate. Predecessors like the florescent light and standard incandescent light sources proved to only generate a fraction of the light source provided by a LED. Florescent light only provides a ¼ of a LED's illumination, and a standard incandescent light provides 1/20th of a LED's illumination. The self-powered device provides a compact, durable solution for efficient lighting through utilizing energy from the sun, as well as the potential to transfer solar energy to other small portable devices.
