Centralized Solar Charging Station
DSLS is based on a centralised charging station which consists of one large solar panel (including mounting frame), one charging unit which contains a storage battery, a varied number of charge Connectors up to 20 to 50 lanterns and mobile .The charging station is ideal for villages, communities and centralized populations. This system represents a sustainable solution that ensures a proper use and maintenance of the installation. Every rental cycle, the system provides the user with variable hours of lantern operation (dependent on brightness level) or equivalent use of a mobile phone charger, radio, or any other device that can be charged from the USB charging socket on the lantern. After this time the lantern’s battery will be depleted.
