Getting to know Luci
Charging
Charge via solar
•With solar panel side up, place in direct
sunlight for up to 7 hours for a full charge.
•Press battery level indicator button at any
time to check battery level. See illustration
above for more info.
Direct sunlight means that the sun’s
light is directly hitting the solar panel.
For example, if you were standing
outside under the sun with nothing
obstructing you and the sun, then you
would be in direct sunlight. If you were
standing inside, you would be getting
indirect sunlight but no direct rays from
the sun. Solar panels always need direct
sunlight to charge. If in doubt, think
of it this way; if you were Luci and you
were able to directly see the sun, then
you would be in direct sunlight!

Should I charge my light if I don’t have immediate
plans to use it?
Yes! Our products can retain a full charge for up to
3 years. We recommend charging your light every 6
months or so, even when you aren’t using it. That
way, you’ll ensure it’s always ready to go when you
need it.
Can my light be left outside?
Yes! In fact, our products love being outside in the
open. Luci is durable and completely waterproof.
This means you don’t need to go running to bring
them in when it rains. Luci: 1, laundry: 0.
You say that my Luci is durable; how durable are we
talking?
So durable that you can hit it with a stick, kick it,
throw it, even stand on it (providing you weigh less
than ~150 lbs). Our products are built to last and
designed to take anything life throws at it. All of
our inflatable lights can withstand up to 150 lbs of
pressure. Yes, really!
Do all Inflatable Lanterns have a 2-second quick
shut off?
Yes, all of our Inflatable Lanterns have a 2-second
quick shut off. And if you’re new to our products
and terminology, the 2-second quick shut off does
exactly what it sounds like. Instead of clicking
through the modes until you get to the power off
mode, you can simply hold down the power button
for 2 seconds and the light will power off.
Where can I find the full specs for my light?
You can find the full specs for each product on
their respective product pages at MPOWERD.com.
Underneath the product description at the top of the
page is an expandable “TECH SPECS” bar. Click on
this to reveal the full specs of the product.

Frequently asked
questions
It's cloudy, will my light still charge?
Yes, but it will charge at a slower rate than on a
bright, clear day. As your Luci charges via the red and
violet frequencies of visible light, the charge times
will vary based on the UV index or overcast skies.
Generally speaking, the higher the UV index, the
faster the charge.
Will my light charge under indoor lighting?
The sun generates significant red and violet
frequencies (which charge your Luci), whereas your
ordinary indoor lights emit a tiny fraction of that UV.
We recommend you go straight to the source and put
your Luci directly in the sunlight from a windowsill
or, for the best results, outside! Luci is durable and
completely waterproof.
Do I need batteries?
Nope. All of our products are solar powered and
rechargeable, so no batteries are needed. No more
searching the drawer for that second AA!
Can I charge your products from my car dashboard?
We advise against charging on a car dashboard. On
a hot summer day, your car dashboard can reach
temperatures of up to 160ºF (71°C) which exceeds the
temperature limit of our products - 122°F (50°C).
How much charge does my light retain when not in use?
Depending on the model, if your light is fully charged
and not in use, it should retain the charge for ~3
years. An unused light will only lose ~3% battery
per month. We specifically built these lights to be
reliable and ready for whenever you need them!
Do I need to activate the solar charger?
No activation needed. Simply place the light in direct
sunlight with the solar side up, and the sun’s rays will
do the rest.
Will the LEDs ever need replacing?
Nope, never. Not unless they are somehow damaged
of course. But fear not, we’ve designed and
manufactured our products so that you would have
to go out of your way to get in and damage the LEDs.
