The Risetime smart electric umbrella has just been introduced on the crowdfunding platform Xiaomi Youpin. This innovative umbrella allows for one-touch operation, opening and closing within just 2 seconds. It features a built-in motor with two buttons located on the handle for easy electrical operation.
Battery Life and Charging
The smart electric umbrella is particularly useful in situations where rapid deployment is needed, such as during sudden rain showers. With just a click, the umbrella opens or closes, making it highly convenient. It is powered by a battery that supports up to 150 cycles of opening and closing. The built-in battery has a capacity of 280mAh and requires 1.5 hours for a full charge. Impressively, the umbrella has a standby time of 180 days, ensuring it can last through an entire rainy season without needing a recharge.
Safety and Design
Several safety features have been incorporated to ensure reliable performance. If the battery runs out, the umbrella can only be closed automatically and cannot be manually opened until recharged. Risetime emphasizes that the design of the umbrella balances overall performance with safety. It employs a reverse opening and closing mechanism, which keeps the wet surface inside when folded. Additionally, the handle is IPX4 waterproof.
UV Protection and Durability
The smart electric umbrella can block over 99% of ultraviolet rays, boasting a sun protection rating of UPF50+. Crafted from aviation aluminum alloy frames, it offers level 5 wind resistance. For added safety at night or during rain, the edges of the umbrella reflect strong light. Although Risetime is not owned by Xiaomi, it is noted as a third-party brand. The umbrella is available for crowdfunding at a price of 129 yuan ($18).
