The Luci® Base is a portable, inflatable solar-powered light designed for various uses, including as a light source and a power bank for charging other devices. It features both solar and USB charging capabilities, making it versatile for different environments and needs.

Function Description:

The primary function of the Luci® Base is to provide illumination through its LED lights and to act as a portable power source for charging small electronic devices via its built-in USB port. It is designed to be durable, waterproof, and compact, making it suitable for outdoor activities, emergency preparedness, and everyday use. The light offers multiple brightness modes and a flashing mode for signaling. Its inflatable design allows for easy storage and portability when deflated.

Important Technical Specifications:

Charging:
- Solar Charging: Requires direct sunlight, with a full charge taking up to 28 hours. The device charges via the red and violet frequencies of visible light, meaning charge times will vary based on the UV index or overcast skies.
- USB Charging: Significantly faster than solar, taking 5-6 hours for a full charge. The USB port is a two-way port, allowing both charging of the Luci® Base and charging of other devices from the Luci® Base.
Battery Level Indicator: Features a 4-light indicator system:
- 1 light = 0-20% battery
- 2 lights = 21-40% battery
- 3 lights = 41-60% battery
- 4 lights = 61-100% battery
Power Output: Capable of charging other devices via its USB port.
Durability: Waterproof and designed to withstand outdoor conditions.
Temperature Limit: The device should not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 122°F (50°C), particularly when charging (e.g., on a car dashboard).
Battery Retention: When fully charged and not in use, the light can retain its charge for approximately 3 years, losing only about 3% battery per month.

Usage Features:

Inflation: To inflate, firmly pinch the 2-way valve and pull it away from the base (this inflates it to 50%). Then, firmly pinch the valve and blow into the nozzle until fully inflated. Push the valve back in when done.
Deflation: To deflate, pull out the valve, firmly pinch it, and simultaneously collapse the light towards the base. Gently twist the light during deflation for a flatter, more compact shape. Close the tab on the valve once fully deflated.
Light Modes: The power button controls the light modes:
- 1 click: Low mode
- 2 clicks: Medium mode
- 3 clicks: High mode
- 4 clicks: Flashing mode
- 5 clicks: Turn off
- Hold for 2 seconds: Turn off at any time.
Charging External Devices: To charge a device, insert the charging cable into the Luci® Base's USB port and the other end into the device.
Battery Check: Press the battery level indicator button at any time to check the current charge level.
Portability: Features an adjustable base strap and a fixed top strap for easy carrying or hanging.
Simultaneous Use: The Luci® Base can charge a device and provide light simultaneously, though this will deplete its battery more quickly.

Maintenance Features:

Charging Best Practices:
- For solar charging, place the solar panel side up in direct sunlight.
- For USB charging, ensure the cord is firmly in position and check that the Battery Level Indicator lights are flashing, indicating active charging.
- Avoid charging on surfaces that can reach high temperatures, such as car dashboards, to prevent damage to the device.
Waterproof Design: The device is designed to be left outside, even in rain, due to its waterproof construction.
Storage: The inflatable design allows for compact storage when deflated.
