The 45-degree Effect

The Outdoor Flashlight has two main selling points to the concept. One – it has a 45-degree angle to it and two – it has twice the solar charging panels to it. The angle is to ensure proper illumination and ability to guide the light in the correct direction. The solar panels give it the extra edge in eco-charging. Since it is the outdoor light, you will have enough exposure to the sun!
