can this case use just any kinda light source or does it have to be the sun?

No...It has to be direct sunlight. Also, the solar charger takes a long time to recharge the battery. I basically just used it as a secondary battery and charged it from the wall socket the night before. I think the solar charger would only help if you had several days to charge it. I left it on my dash once for a week and it barely charged half way.

Absolutely! Any kind of light can be used to recharge with the Enerplex. It is great!

Yes indeed Kevin. Any light source with enough intensity can be used, however the light intensity is key for most effectiveness.If charging from a regular say.. Lamp bulb, I would recommend plugging into an electrical socket and charging via outlet and cable at that point. I hope this was helpful!

General light in a room is all it needs to power up. It doesn't need direct sunlight

It allows for more light to come in but since the mesh is at an angle the sun usually is not a factor.

I don't recommend this kind light for music video. because being too hot . If the work space is small you can use LED light.

I suppose you could yes, but I would use a continuous light source that gives off little or no heat such as LED lights.

Yes you can. It works real good on bright sunny days. I hardly ever use the illumination.

The manufacturer's literature states to keep it out of direct sunlight. I always kept it away from any kind of bright light.

The case doesn't have a light. It's just lightweight. I have the latest paperwhite as well. This case is great!

No, It needs direct sunlight. Unless, you have a large window that gets 7-8 hrs of direct sun. You can always try it.

Not sure but most of the diodes that run these things are one way only. Best case, it will not light. Worst case, it will not light ever again. Call the seller to be sure. They should know.

Yes. You can always use solar but they are very expensive and you won't get the same amount of light as you would from an electrical bulb. Besides the moonrays don't use that much electricity. If you only need a trickle of light, use solars. If you want more light, use electricity.

Yes, direct sunlight or some very bright artificial lighting that replicates sunlight. Indirect sunlight is not sufficient to make it run.

The case itself dosen't have built-in light. What happens is that when you close the lid it automaticaly switch off the light and lock the device. When you open the lidteh light comes back on and you can unlock the device. I hope I was of some help.

Probabally not unless it was very close to the light. Indirect sunlight outdoors is not enough. However, this is a great choice for outdoors and it sure beats batteries and an on/off switch!

There's 3 different beam. high medium low. Strobe and SOS. Too me I don't think u need it any brighter. We nicknamed it the sun

Depends on you, you shouldn't leave it in direct sunlight, could break under pressure just like any other and last no if you put it on right it won't fall off the case itself is really good.

Yes but only as a modeling light, it won't give off enough light to shoot some photos that you might want.
