red dot award: product design 2009

The FORA Solar Combo includes a solar panel, battery, music player and LED desk lamp. Inspired by the photosynthesis process in plants, it converts solar power into electricity and uses it to power a music player or LED desk lamp. The key concept is to combine clean solar energy with energy-saving components in order to replace or reduce the consumption of conventional electricity. Moreover, the cordless feature allows users to use and move the product wherever they like. A patented photo sensor helps to achieve optimum solar panel placement, while the modular design provides for a wide variety of product applications.
