Corona Solar light
Corona is a solar-powered outdoor lighting system. It can be staked to the ground, attached to a wall, or simply placed on a table top.The Corona solar light’s solar voltaic cell transforms sunlight into energy during the day, and its LEDs automatically start to glow when the sun sets. It uses no glues or fasteners, making it simple to disassemble for recycling.What started out as an idea over drinks became a inter-state collaboration between friends and colleagues. Six months later, dozens of phone calls, and every weekend in the garage shop, a full prototype installation at ICFF launches this concept project to the world! This is what makes design fun!

Exterior lights are great for a number of reasons. Lights that are connected to a photo cell turn on at dusk and turn of at dawn saving energy and maintenance. Also, lights that are connected to a PIR center are triggered by movement and then turn off after a short amount of time. This can be a great security feature for your home and energy efficient.
