Little Sun

Our iconic, high-quality solar lamp is the perfect introduction to portable solar-powered light.

Designed by artist Olafur Eliasson, it is great for camping, festivals, beach trips, and for brightening your home, garden, or balcony. Kids love the lamp – as a nightlight or for playtime – which makes it a great tool for teaching about sustainability. Featuring a dimmer, you can easily adjust the brightness of the lamp. Five hours of charging in the sun produces more than 50 hours of light at the dimmest setting or four hours at the brightest setting.

Little Sun

A marriage of art and science, Little Sun was founded in 2012 by artist Olafur Eliasson and engineer Frederik Ottesen. Their collaboration produced the Little Sun lamp—a small, portable, solar light—that was first distributed to people living without electricity in Ethiopia. The lamp is a practical tool that enables students to study after dark, mothers to take better care of their children at night, and families to reduce the effects of toxic fumes from fuel. The lamp has also become an icon of the renewable energy future that is critical to humanity and the natural world.
