LIGHTIMUS is an innovative green lighting device with a pure and meaningful form, intellectual structure and didactic usage.

Lightimus is a decorative lighting design emphasizing the importance of the life cycles of our planet. The product is in the form of an hourglass. One side is composed of solar panels and accumulates energy during day time. The other side is composed of a series of LED lights to lighten its environment during night time. When fully charged, its NiMh Battery can illuminate 12 LED bulbs (3mms) for up to 8 hours. When the lights fade away in the morning, you rotate the other side and put it under the sun; in the evening it will be ready to illuminate your room again. And the cycle continues - there is no switch on this product.
