ABOUT THE 2C SOLAR LIGHT CAP COMPANY
THE STORY OF OUR 2C SOLAR LIGHT CAP
I am often asked, “why did I invent the 2C Solar Light Cap?” Here is my answer:Simon's Tioman Island Sunset
“One night many years ago, I was busy taking photographs of the sunset on Tioman Island in Malaysia and had wandered far from my campsite. Darkness comes fast the tropics and minutes later I was in pitch blackness, forced to crawl on hands and knees back along a narrow track to the base. When I retraced my steps the next day I discovered that I had been crawling along the edge of a sheer precipice with the rocky sea below, completely oblivious to the danger.
If only there had been some form of light. Despite all of our advances, how reliant we are on light. Our safety and enjoyment of the great outdoors completely depends on it. Imagine if there was a self-charging light, one that would leave your hands free, one that could be incorporated into everyday clothing…
While looking at international markets, I became increasingly aware of the enormous need for lighting where electric lights are unreliable or simply don’t exist, and the ecological impact became more important to me – no more batteries for the landfill and sustainable, renewable power were vital components in the design.
Using free light from the sun to light up the dark, my original vision - to light the world - is getting nearer every day.” - Simon Dyer, CEO and Founder
