Some rooms become entirely different places when the right light enters them. The OPTIKinetics Solar 100 LED is a sensory room projector built for exactly that transformation - compact enough for a bedroom or small therapy room, powerful enough for a classroom or clinic, and quiet enough that the only thing anyone notices is the moving light across the walls.

Available at The Sensory Supply across North America, the Solar 100 LED is the smallest, quietest, and most energy-efficient projector in the OPTIKinetics range. It delivers 1,400 lumens of crisp, true-colour projection through a 20W LED module running on 12V - cool and virtually silent in operation, with an external mains adaptor that makes it safe to use in hydrotherapy environments.

Key Features of the OPTIKinetics Solar 100 LED Projector

• 20W LED Module, 1,400 Lumens - A high-colour-temperature, energy-efficient light source concentrated through OPTIKinetics' unique optical system, delivering truer colour projection and better image clarity than any comparable projector in its class
• 10,000+ Hour LED Lifespan - The long-life LED module requires no maintenance and no lamp replacements, making it a dependable, low-cost investment for therapy rooms, classrooms, and care environments that need reliable daily use
• Virtually Silent Operation - This 12V projector runs with no audible noise, an essential quality in sensory, therapeutic, and calm environments where sound sensitivity matters
• Low Voltage with External Mains Adaptor - The external adaptor keeps the projector cool and safe, and specifically enables use in hydrotherapy pools and water-based therapy environments where other projectors cannot be safely operated
• Compact and Lightweight - At 1.85kg including the transformer and 245mm in length with lens fitted, the Solar 100 LED is easy to position, reposition, and transport between rooms or settings
• Active Gate Fitment - Manufactured with the current Active Gate system, ensuring compatibility with the full range of OPTIKinetics Active Gate effect wheels, cassettes, gobos, and accessories
• Compatible with All OPTIKinetics Effect Wheels and Cassettes - Works with the complete range of 6-inch effect wheels and 50mm cassette wheels, giving users access to an extensive library of visual effects from liquid and ocean themes to picture wheels and custom gobos
• 85mm Lens Included - The fitted 85mm f2.8 helical focus lens delivers a focused, high-clarity image; the optional 60mm lens is available separately for a larger projected image while maintaining sharpness
• 3-Element Fully Coated Lens Construction - The optical quality of the 85mm lens matches photographic standards, contributing to the projector's superior image clarity versus comparable products
• Active Gate Accessory System - All post-2017 OPTIKinetics Solar projectors and accessories use the Active Gate fitment; accessories manufactured before 2017 are not compatible with this projector
• Manufacturer Warranty - Covered by a 1-year manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship; an extended 3-year warranty is available upon product registration on the OPTIKinetics website
• Rotator - At least 1 6" Rotator or Cassette Rotator are required to operate 
• Effects Wheels -  Liquid, Picture, or Cassette (50mm Cassette Rotator required for Cassette Wheels) 
  
• Consider adding - the 60mm Lens for an even larger image when compared to the 85mm while remaining crisp and clear.

Setting Up Your OPTIKinetics Projector System

The Solar 100 LED projector is the first step in a three-part OPTIKinetics system. Once the projector is chosen, users select a compatible Active Gate rotator and then choose from the range of effect wheels or cassettes to create the specific visual experience they need. A wheel or cassette rotator is required - it is not included with the projector - and effects wheels are purchased separately.

This modular approach means a single projector can create dozens of different visual environments simply by swapping wheels. For OT clinics, sensory rooms, and care facilities, this makes the Solar 100 LED a versatile core piece of equipment rather than a single-purpose tool.

Where the Solar 100 LED Is Used

The Solar 100 LED was designed specifically for multi-sensory effects projection - the kind of immersive, calming visual experience that underpins effective sensory rooms and therapeutic spaces. Its silent operation, hydrotherapy-safe design, and compact footprint make it particularly suited to clinical and care environments where product quality and reliability are non-negotiable.

Beyond clinical use, it works equally well transforming a bedroom, playroom, or calm corner at home into a sensory oasis. The projected light can shift the atmosphere of a room entirely - creating the visual calm that supports regulation, focus, and rest for people of all ages and all sensory profiles.

Ideal for

• Occupational therapists equipping therapy rooms and multi-sensory spaces
• Children's hospitals, rehabilitation centres, and palliative care environments
• Hydrotherapy pools and aquatic therapy facilities requiring low-voltage, safe projection
• Schools and daycares building sensory calm corners, dark dens, or relaxation spaces
• Residential care facilities and group homes for adults with sensory processing differences
• Families creating sensory rooms or calm bedroom environments at home
• Anyone across Canada and the US looking for a professional-grade sensory projector
