Solar-Powered Floating Globe

by Rob Andre

No electricity is required to power this floating light globe. The solar panel inside the globe converts sunlight into electricity that is then stored in the integral rechargeable battery pack. The light switches on automatically when it gets dark and turns itself off when re-exposed to light or when the battery is fully discharged. The globe uses a white plastic housing so that the LED can easily shine through, glowing in every color in the spectrum.

The Solar-Powered Floating Light Globe can be inserted into your home or garden’s décor in a variety of ways. A pedestal is included for secure positioning inside your home on a windowsill. The included ground spike will plant securely in the ground for outdoor color in a garden or path light. You can even float the globe as an accent light in a koi pond.

Really cool! - On sale at $21.99

    Purely an accent light - not too bright. Waterproof though, so it beats a few of my solar spots that always short out in the rain.
