I've visited people who live on less than $1.90 a day. They generally have power to run any led lights that might run off a potato. They often had access to a motorcycle and access to a cell phone. One example for electricity is to rent car batteries for the night to charge their phones and run TV's, both vital to help people escape poverty. They don't want solar lights or bicycles. They need mobility and information flow on their own terms. Give them eBay not Wikipedia / a book with a light. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/315719288_Can_Solar_Lanterns_Improve_Youth_Academic_Performance_Experimental_Evidence_from_Bangladesh https://www.researchgate.net/publication/315719288_Can_Solar... Those minority who don't even have a led light have some pretty big issues. Night time lighting is low on the list, you could just give them a torch and battery not a complicated potato device if it mattered.
