The little sibling of the original solar lantern — 250 ml, handmade in Johannesburg. It catches sun by day and glows on the table, in the tent or on the windowsill by night. Small enough for any bag, enough light for the whole evening.

The story

The Mini is made by hand in our solar factory at Victoria Yards, Johannesburg — in the same building, by the same fairly paid team as its big sibling. The glass is mouth-blown and recycled, and in the lid sits the SOMO Mini: it charges in the sun or via USB-C and gives up to 18 hours of warm white light. At 250 millilitres and just over eleven centimetres tall, the Mini is hardly bigger than a mug. It fits in a backpack, on the narrowest windowsill and next to any tent. What goes inside is up to you — sand from the last beach, a feather, a small memory.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. The light module is IP65-rated — rain on the balcony or dew in the tent won't bother it.
