About Kamworks

Why is Kamworks located outside Phnom Phen?
This makes it possible to understand and interact with rural villagers, so we can design better solar solutions. As a result, Kamworks has successfully developed award winning products such as the MoonLight in a participatory approach with local villagers.

How come a young company like Kamworks already won so much international recognition?
It is probably due to the challenge we are taking on: we aim at selling a new (clean) technology, to the poorest people on the planet, which are dispersed and often not aware of the technology yet. People realize it is absolutely necessary, but a very hard thing to do. At Kamworks we are constantly developing novel ideas and innovations to address this challenge, and we are testing them out in the market.

Does Kamworks have a social mission?
Yes, Kamworks is a business, but with a social mission. Our bigger social mission is to bring affordable solar solutions to rural people and to contribute to developing a solar sector inside Cambodia, a sector that produces and adds value in Cambodia.

About MoonLight

Can it last for the whole night?
Yes. The MoonLight was designed for that purpose. Based on the average hours of sunshine in Cambodia the lantern can be used all evening and night. For using it for a long time the highest setting need to be use only for a few hours.

How does it charge?
The lantern comes with a small solar panel. This panel can easily be installed on a sunny place outside the house. For the best result it is important to make plugging in the MoonLight in the morning a habit.

Do we keep the lantern outside when it charges?
This is not needed. The panel has a 3 meter cord to keep the lantern inside. And avoid theft.

Will it give an electrical shock?
No. There is no risk for this. Also does it not attract lightning.

Do I get warrantee?
Yes. The MoonLight comes with a six months guarantee (in Cambodia)

Can it be fixed?
Yes. Kamworks has set-up a repair service in case the MoonLight need to be fixed. This gives us an edge over imported products without local service.

Does it save money?
Yes. The Moonlight will save money because families do not need to buy kerosene or batteries anymore. The payback time is between 8-12 months.
