In 2012 MPOWERD created Luci®, an inflatable solar light, with the goal of making an affordable clean energy product that people could use in any situation — from outdoor camping adventures to backyard parties to everyday living for people in developing countries without electricity.
Luci taps into a source of light that’s limitless and readily available to everyone on our planet — the sun. Advancements in renewable tech have given MPOWERD the means to literally put the power of the sun into a device that fits in the palm of your hand.
MPOWERD created Luci, their inflatable solar light, to empower the 1.5 billion people in the developing world who still live without electricity. In many places, as soon as the sun goes down, children can't study, entrepreneurs have to stop working, women are less safe walking outside, health clinics have to close... the list goes on. Kerosene lamps are the most common solution in these areas – but they are dangerous, toxic and expensive.
Lightweight, easy to carry, and shining for hours on a single charge, Luci is a clean, safe and affordable way to bring light to the world.

I have two Luci Solar Inflatable lights and I love them to pieces. There are soooooo many ways they can be used. I have a Luci Candle Soft Amber LED light that is perfect for a soft ambiance. It casts plenty of light, enough to light up a tent or a room. This is excellent for camping and power outages or even to just add a romantic touch. The Luci Candle has three modes, candle flicker, dim and bright.

It is of course solar and charges fully in eight hours of direct sunlight. Once it is fully charged it will last for up to 12 hours. This super lightweight inflatable light only weights 2.2oz making it ideal for backpacking trips. It has a handle across the top so it is simple to hang and also tie onto your hiking pack. I recommend tying it to you pack where the sun hits it while you hike/climb during the day so that it is fully charged just in time for the sun to go down.

One of the coolest features is that these inflatable lights are waterproof. A little rain, drizzle or overnight dew won't hurt the Luci Solar Light one bit. So go ahead and decorate your outdoor party with these inflatable lights. I am typically too tired to clean up the night I have a BBQ or party. I love that I can leave my Luci Light outside over night and just dry it off the next day.

My other Luci Inflatable Solar Light is a really fun one. It's the Luci Color Essence. This lights up in eight different colors or you can choose the color cycle option and it will change colors all on its own. I love this light for both kids and adult parties.

The Luci Color Essence is about 2.5 inches bigger round than the Luci Candle. It is 10.8 cm height, 12.7 cm diameter and super light weight. It's perfect for camping and hiking

as well. It is incredibly light weight, only 4.4 oz and is waterproof. Once the Luci Color Essence is placed in full sun it only takes 7 hours to charge. I like to just leave this guy on my picnic table when I go camping so it will charge all day long and light up our camp space all night. The Lavender, violet, sky, powder, mint, lime, coral and rose add an excellent splash of color to any location and will last up to six hours.

After you’ve used your light, and you don’t expect to be using it on a regular basis, there’s no harm in charging it all the way and then storing it away. A Luci Light will retain 95% of its charge for each month it's in storage. In other words, if you were to stow it away on January 1, you'd still have more than half the charge come October!
