In many countries of sub-Saharan Africa including Nigeria, more than 70% of the people live in off-grid communities where they depend on kerosene hurricane lanterns and candles to light their homes and batteries for their torches and radios. Battery charging using portable generating set is an increasingly common service in these communities. The fume from the generating sets and from burning kerosene and candle is toxic and lead to respiratory illnesses over time. For most people in this setting, their living conditions could be improved simply by providing cost effective renewable energy power sources that would power LED lamps, radio sets and other electronic appliances. It is the goal of this project to develop affordable solar lantern kit for use in rural households in Nigeria. The solar lantern kit consists of an 8-W solar panel, 2 light sources consisting of high efficiency LED lamp capable of producing 6-hours of light of ≥ 800 lumen each, and a charge control circuit capable of fully charging 2 rechargeable 3.7V lithium-ion batteries in 6 hours of direct sunlight using the external 8-W solar panel
