About Mira

Mira is designed for those who want cosy outdoor evenings without fussing with cables or power sockets.

The solar panel charges during the day – completely automatically. You don't need to think about it. No cables to run, no power socket to find. Just put it up once and let the summer do the rest.

10meters is enough for the whole patio, along a fence, around a pergola or along the balcony railing. The winding mechanism lets you adjust exactly how much you want out – and wind it back in in 30 seconds without tangles.

Got a cloudy day or want to charge faster? USB-C port means you always have a full battery for the evening. And with waterproof construction, it doesn't matter if it rains – Mira stays put.

The feeling of not wanting to go inside.

That magical moment when the evening is warm, the light is soft and nobody wants to move from the table. Mira extends those evenings. Charges from the sun during the day and creates exactly that atmosphere that makes dinner linger in the best possible way.

Sun charges. You just enjoy.

Put Mira up once – then everything else takes care of itself completely automatically. The solar panel charges during the day without you needing to hunt for power sockets or power banks.

No cords. No sockets. Nothing to think about.

10-metre light string is enough for the whole patio or balcony. Waterproof construction means it stays put whatever the weather. And with tangle-free winding it's out and away in 30 seconds.

The whole summer – without a single hassle.

Works anywhere. Needs nothing.

Large garden or small balcony – Mira works anywhere.

No cable running. No hunting for power sockets. No installation. Hang it along the railing, fence or pergola and let the sun do the rest.

Perfect for those who live in a flat and want a summer feel on the balcony. Just as perfect for the homeowner who wants to light up the whole garden. 10 metres goes further than you'd think.

Summer evening in a box

Opened the box on a Friday evening. Hung it up. Sat outside till midnight. That's all you need to know.

Bought two more straight away

Bought one first to try it out. Was so pleased I bought two more the same week. One for the patio, one for camping.

C

USB backup is a clever touch

The clever bit is it can be charged via USB too. On really overcast days I give it a quick charge and it's away again.

S

10 metres goes a long way

Works fine on overcast days too

Was a bit worried it wouldn't charge on cloudy days. Works fine regardless – the USB charging as backup is a smart touch.

J

Along the pergola

Hung it along the pergola. Looks like a posh restaurant in the evening. Honestly such a difference.

P

Instant summer feeling

The moment it's on you get that summer feeling straight away. Soft warm light that makes you want to stay outside.

Wish there were more colours

White is lovely but I'd like to see a warmer, more golden option too. Nothing wrong with how it works though, lasts all evening.

Wish it were a touch brighter

Transformed the patio

Hung it along the fence on the patio. First evening we sat out two hours longer than usual. Says it all really.
