The LuminAID Nova is an inflatable solar lantern that packs flat to about an inch thick and puffs into a 4.75-inch cube weighing 5 ounces. It puts out 75 lumens on Turbo and runs up to 24 hours on Low, charging by USB in about an hour or by sun in 10 to 12 hours. It is IP67 rated and floats, so it works for camping, power outages and night swimming. Against rigid lanterns it trades peak brightness for portability and a solar option; against cheaper inflatable lanterns it adds USB charging and a higher waterproof rating.

Owners treat the Nova as a compact, dependable backup light rather than a main lantern. They like the flat pack, the quick USB top-up and the fact that it floats and survives rain. The common gripe is that Turbo is not very bright and solar charging is slow.
The PackLite Nova USB is a high performing, inflatable solar lantern. This compact lantern is ideal for anywhere that needs a little light. Use it to light up your tent or campsite, or float it in the pool or on the lake for night swimming. Keep it in your emergency kit to stay prepared for power outages or storms. Light up your backyard for summer barbecues or take it with you to outdoor festivals. Wherever you take it, the durable PackLite Nova USB can handle it.
