The Lightcap 300 combines a water bottle with a solar powered LED light. This portable device allows you to store liquids within it, or seal away documents and other such items in a watertight container, while still being able to be used as a powerful light.
The Lightcap300 has been designed by Sollight for activities such as camping, where weight is an issue. By combining a water bottle and light together there is less weight to carry and due to the light charging from a solar panel the device is ideal for taking out into the wilderness without worry of losing power or running out of batteries.
The lid of the Lightcap300 comprises of a solar panel on the outside of the lid and 4 white LEDs on the inside of the lid. By placing the bottle, or even just its lid, in sunlight the device will charge. It will provide around 8 hours of illumination when fully charged. The Lightcap300 is turned on by a recessed switch and also has a light sensor which turns the lantern off to prevent draining the battery during daylight hours.
The Lightcap 300 can hold 1 litre of fluid and has a diameter of 10.2cm x 21.6cm (4in x 8.5in). The bottle has a wide mouth opening to aid drinking and cleaning, this also makes it easier to store valuables or items like a first aid kit within it and get them out easily. The Lightcap300 weighs only 275g (9.7 oz) for bottle and cap together when empty. The bottle comes with built in hanging loops to allow you to hang it by a strap or cord.
The Lightcap is available for $29.99 with free shipping, and is available in either red or black.
