With Mikono we created an intuitively to use and visually surprising lighting solution which combines the idea of a classic table light and a battery light. Its portable conically shaped light shade with the attached rubber sling gives the lamp not only a strong characteristic but also offers various ways to use it both inside and outside: You can carry it around, hang in on the ceiling or a branch in your garden, place it on the table as decorative light in different positions or next to your bed for reading. The base serves as loading station and reveals some delicate detailes as it has a centered tunnel to house the loop of the shade when attached. A big round button on top of the shade appears eyecatching and works as light switch with dimming feature in four steps.

Our two prototypes are fully operating with integrated battery and all technical components to control the five high power LED´s. They include a specially for this light designed solution for loading. When developing the technical confguration we were focused on achieving a lamp where only the battery can be changed when defective without replacing the entire light as it is usual.
