World Aids Day - Prevention is better than cure

A solar-powered light bulb….for 1.6 billion people without electricity!!!

Nokero N200 (which stands for “no kerosene”), lasts six or more hours on one day's charge and is affordable to the billions of people worldwide who live without reliable access to electricity.  Featuring one solar cell and four LEDs along with a brand able frosted globe, the bulb uses the solar energy it collects to power one AA-sized, 1.2 V, 1000mAh, replaceable and recyclable Ni-MH battery, which is used to provide light at night. The Nokero automatically turns off in bright light to save energy; it also features a multi-switch that can be set to high, low or off. The N200 is rainproof and durable so it can withstand outdoor use in tough conditions, ranging from -20 C to 55C.
