What do you do when the power goes off in your house? Do you have a collection of flashlights that can be distributed amongst family members so that everyone can move around safely? Guo Wei Chen's Lantern is an innovative product that's capable of keeping interior spaces illuminated so that you don't have to have a torch at hand.
The 14-inch base must be fully charged from a wall socket in preparation for a blackout. Should this occur, one person can pick up Guo Wei Chen's Lantern by the handle and easily eject, one by one, all of the eight disks that are stored inside. Each of these has the power to brighten up a room or a hallway, doing so only when its motion sensors detect that someone is close-by.
