The “Saint Clare” solar lamps are here and are one of the winning entries designed by a French architect Stéphane Maupin. These lamps have photovoltaic cells fitted at the bottom at its base. So how do these photovoltaic cells soak in the energy from the sun? They simply use suction pads that helps the lam stick on to the window and charge up. This lamp was designed for the VIA Project Assistance Grant. When fully charged, all you need to do is, pull out the lamp off your window and place it down on your desk for use. You can also leave the lamp stuck up on the window which will help illuminate a larger room.

Solar power is finding its uses in various applications and new and innovative one’s like these helps make our lives easier.
