UNO 50
All-in-one solar light
Sunlight in. Everyday light out. An affordable all-in-one solar lamp that gives off-grid households more freedom after sunset.
A small light. More possibilities.
For families relying on fuel-based lighting, an evening of light comes with a recurring cost. UNO 50 offers a simple alternative: charge it in the sun during the day and use the stored energy to read, cook or spend time together after dark.
The solar panel, rechargeable LFP battery and efficient LED sit within one compact product. No separate panel to carry or connect. Two brightness settings keep the choice straightforward.
One handle. Many ways to use it.
The pivoting handle becomes a stand or a hanging point. Set it beside a book, carry it between rooms or hang it overhead. The same light adapts to the task, while its integrated solar panel keeps the system simple.
Product design for everyday independence.
Ti el Attar designed UNO 50 at NIWA. The industrial design brings the lighting technology, enclosure and everyday handling into one accessible product.
NIWA’s approach draws on first-hand consumer studies in African and Indian communities. Affordability and practical use guide product development, connecting human-centered research with the needs of people living beyond the electricity grid.
