An additional study demonstrated that Solvatten has the potential to reduce firewood use by at least two tonnes per year for each household.

I like that the light is small and rugged — it’s water-resistant, which is great, since it was left outside during a rain- and windstorm (with no damage) on my recent trip. I also dig its kelly-green color. It would be nifty if the solar panel was even smaller (it measures about 3 by 7 inches), but I get that the developers aren’t magicians.

Easy to use, the light lasts for hours and is bright enough to light up a large room!

Water is an essential part of our life. However, access to clean water is a common problem in developing countries especially in rural areas. Families in rural areas usually have no pipe water connection at home and have to rely on rain water or some have to go fetching water from the river, well, or natural spring. In Matungu District, Western Kenya, women and children have the responsibility to provide water for their household.

It’s no secret that kerosene wick lamps are a terrible technology in all sorts of ways – I give them zero stars out of five.
