SolarCap Light Emitting tile
The SolarCap system consists of modular, self-contained lighting devices that can be used for decorative or traffic flow purposes - powered only by solar energy. These unique devices incorporate the newest “EnergyCache” technology for energy storage, instead of the high maintenance rechargeable batteries that are currently used in solar deviced. Unlike batteries which must be changed every two-three years and can not tolerate environmental extremes, EnergyCaches enable SolarCap lighting to be used i any environmental without maintenance for more than 10 years with a wide operating temperature range of -25 - 60 degree C.
During daylight hours, the tiles use solar cells to capture energy from the sun that is than converted to electricity and storef using SolarCap’s EnergyCaches to automatically turn on soft light emiting diode (LED) lighting in the evening. Full charge takes about one hour under direct sunlight and up to eight hours in shady or indirect lighting conditions. The light will stay on for up to 12 hours with fully charged EnergyCaches.
Available in six colours, user can arrange SolarCap light emitting tiles in any imaginable shape or space to achieve a variety of drsired effects for residential or commercial applications in high-traffic or isolated areas. They can be easily installed just like a standard brick or tile on horizontal or vertical surfaces.
