3 Household Uses for the Soji Solar Lantern

The Soji solar lantern became popular because of two main features: first, it is practical since it undergoes daily charging and discharging without a need for an electrical supply and second, it has a light-sensitive sensor switch that turns on the LED lamp at night effortlessly.

These features made the solar lantern maintenance-free. As a result, it became a household favorite for use as a decor item, in accent lighting, and in landscape design.

Accent Lighting

The Soji solar lantern is perfect for use in accent lighting. It gives out a pale, warm glow that sets the right mood.

The lantern material may look paper-thin but it is actually strong nylon. Underneath this nylon sheet are two powerful LED lamps that emit pale white light. LED lamps that emit amber light are also available in some lantern designs.

Soji solar lanterns must be placed outdoors or where sunlight is available since it uses solar power to charge its batteries. This actually fits well with the Soji lanterns since accent lighting can be better appreciated in places with limited lighting at night. This means that the best places for the lantern includes the porch, patio, backyard, balcony and garden.

Household Decor

A solar lantern has a set of solar cells, called a solar panel, which converts sunlight into electricity. Some Soji lanterns have a movable panel so they can gather more sunlight even at different times during the day. This makes the set-up more efficient and results to faster charging of the batteries.

The panels are well-integrated into the lantern design that few people would notice the difference. As a result, a Soji solar lantern can blend in well as household decor.

Day or night, having hanging solar lanterns add an aesthetic appeal to the surroundings. These lanterns are available in a number of colors such as white, purple, green, blue, red and pink. During the day, even with the LED lamps turned off, colored lanterns are good decors, more so at night, when it is lit, as the color becomes much fuller.

The lantern is also available in a number of shapes that will complement the type of surrounding where it will be placed. There are lanterns that are ball-shaped, square-shaped, teardrop-shaped and a more modern shape that follows that of a flower.

Landscape Design

These solar lights are also perfect for garden landscaping. they can be hung in tree branches or even above ponds or small bodies of water.

Hanging Soji lanterns in tree branches is commonplace especially during festivities. A couple of Soji lanterns hanging from a tree can add life to a party, can warm-up a social gathering, or just set-up that romantic atmosphere for lovers.

On the other hand, hanging Soji solar lanterns above garden ponds or lakes can produce a heavenly effect as the water reflects back some of the light from the lantern.

Also, the pale light can help for better appreciation of the landscape. It can give enough glow to provide light to the surroundings while at the same time can be a definitive piece in the garden landscape.
