Beschreibung:
This project aimed to establish a performance test specification to ensure that when a PV-powered solar lantern (PVSL) successfully completed the tests, it would be expected to have an extended period of life without failure at the specified performance level. The project also aimed to establish a specification that could be used for the certification of PVSL performance. Since PVSLs are shipped worldwide, obviously the result should be global in scope so that all manufacturers in every country can use the specifications. The goal is to provide consumers with an easy visual recognition that the PVSL they intend to buy is a quality product and can be clearly distinguished from products of unknown quality
