WakaWaka Light - Solar Lamp

Even after being one of the early supporters of the Waka Waka light on Kickstarter in May of 2013, I still love this light. It's well made, sturdy and works...it really works and performs. The solar panel charges the battery quickly, the light is as bright or dim as needed and it is designed to be used in several different ways. I like how it can be mounted on a glass bottle, like a wine bottle, to raise the Waka Waka up off the table and provide good light for whatever is needed to be done at the table. Everyone needs a Waka Waka light in their home for emergencies, in case you lose power at night.

Best and most versatile light I've ever used. I like it so much thatI bought another one for a gift. I leave it on the dash off my motorhome so it's always fully charged when I need a flashlight and I never have to worry about needing batteries.

I love this lamp, I bought 7 pcs. of this for me and for my sisters, they said, it reduced their electric bill, I use my lamps, (3 of them) for 2 years now and still working, very durable.

It is very bright as advertised and easy to operate. I like having a bright solar powered device ready for our too frequent power outages.

Arrived on time. Works so far. Helped when traveling.

great and powerful light...

I have 3 WakaWakas. I use them, one at a time, as night lights in a bathroom with only one electrical outlet. I need more light in the bathroom at night. So . . . I keep three WakaWakas charging during the day by placing them in a vertical position on a south facing windowsill. In Maine, not every day is sunny but with three WakaWakas I am able to stay ahead of the clouds. I can also recharge the devices by putting them under a low wattage incandescent bulbs. An LED will not recharge the device. I haven't tried to charge it from the light of a CFL. When the WakaWaka is turn to the lowest setting, it lasts all night and is still operating in the morning--usually a period of 9-10 hours. They're useful at camp where we have only gas lights. Highly recommended. Just be patient and give a chance to fully charge.

Talk about reliable. I accidentally left it out on a snowstorm. It fell off the fence where it had been charging during the storm, and was buried in a foot of snow. I added another couple of feet on top of it with the snowblower before I remembered. By then, all I could do was wait for the spring snowmelt to uncover it. Prior to that, I had left it out in multiple rainstorms. And, of course, I've dropped it several times. After recovering it this spring, it works as well as the day I got it.
