Solar energy and other renewable forms of energy generating systems not only do their bit for the environment but also keep the user close to the environment. Sinthesya is a concept solar-powered lamp designed for indoor and outdoor use that is inspired from the natural process of photosynthesis. The lamp generates energy from the sun during daytime and its high-intensity LEDs provide illumination as night falls.

The lamp with a movable head ensures that the user can focus the illumination at a particular area like a book or your favorite wall painting. With waterproof credentials, the lamp can be placed in your garden for charging without worrying about unseasonal rainfall. An energy meter shows the amount of charge present in its batteries allowing the user the charge it only when needed.

The Dark Side:

The designer doesn’t state the materials with which the lighting system will be built. If it’s plastic then it might just use more energy in its construction that it will actually save during its lifetime.

    Many people like myself have searched for several years to find a cheap affordable solution using solar panels for your residential home.
