Each material choice affects the weight, ranging from 172 kg for softwood to 196 kg for hardwood of European origin, reflecting its robust construction.
As a hallmark of ZANO's commitment to functionality and technology, the bench comes equipped with ambient lighting and multiple USB ports for charging (two USB A 3.0 and one USB C 3.0 with quick charge capability). Its electrification is supported by photovoltaic panels with a maximum output of 100 W, coupled with a standard battery capacity of 36 Ah, ensuring continuous operation from -20°C to 60°C. Various optional technological enhancements include Bluetooth speakers or speakers with built-in memory, a wireless charger, and Wi-Fi hotspot capabilities, making it a potent tool for connectivity and entertainment in public areas.
In terms of customization, the Photon solar bench can be tailored to specific needs with various add-ons. Options for additional tables and bicycle racks on either side of the bench highlight its utility, making it ideal for spaces frequented by cyclists or those in need of extra surface area for personal items. Furthermore, aesthetic customization is possible through logo etchings in stainless steel or milled in wood, allowing for city or corporate branding.
Installation of the bench is straightforward, intended to be bolted to a foundation, ensuring security and stability in outdoor environments. The optional inclusion of LED lights (2 x 1m, 4.8 W/m in neutral white) not only enhances visibility but also adds to the ambiance, particularly after dusk.
