The MiniWiz SolarBulb is a revolutionary portable solar outdoor lamp that makes a base out of any old plastic bottle. The MiniWiz SolarBulb screws right into the bottle, where it collects sunlight until its sensor detects a low level of light, at which point the LED lamp illuminates.
It takes between 3 and 4 hours for the MiniWiz SolarBulb to fully charge, and each charge yields 6 hours of light. These fun little outdoor lamps come in a variety of bright, cheery colors, and would make a great complement to contemporary exterior decor.
