Steora ‘City’ solar bench
A hi-tech alternative to a classic street bench that brings traditional street seating into the modern, connected world.
A more advanced version of the Steora ‘Classic’ model, the ‘City’ model also features 2 x rapid Qi chargers, optional 4 x USB fast charging outlets and WiFi access, but offers the extra ability to install an LCD screen in the side panel.
With 2 rapid Qi chargers, an optional 4 additional USB fast charging outlets and WiFi access capability, the Steora ‘City’ solar powered bench is much more than a simple spot to rest for a while.
Working continuously in the background, an array of sensors is gathering and storing up-to-the-minute data on temperature, humidity, particulate matter as well as visitor activity, while at night, a bank of under-bench LEDs light up to provide extra safety and security.
