Primax has partnered with Ambient Photonics to develop the Primax Ambient Solar Mouse, a cutting-edge PC peripheral featuring Ambient's Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) technology that eliminates the need for traditional disposable batteries. The Primax Ambient Solar Mouse harnesses the power of Ambient Photonics' DSSC technology to transform ambient light into a sustainable energy source, eliminating the need for traditional disposable batteries and providing users with a greener and more efficient computing experience. More than three billion disposable batteries end up in landfills each year.

Unlike other, higher-cost solar technologies that require unrealistically bright conditions, Ambient Photonics solar cells are built for real-world, low-light applications. They use revolutionary new molecules and manufacturing processes to harness indoor and outdoor ambient light to create an endless power source. Ambient Photonics cells demonstrate three times better light harvesting efficiency than conventional solutions, which means a single Ambient Photonics solar cell can produce the power it would normally take much larger indoor cells to produce.

The Primax collaboration is one in a series of strategic Ambient Photonics partnerships that signal the growing adoption and proliferation of solar cell technology in the consumer electronics industry. Over the past year, Ambient has struck commercial agreements with some of the world's largest consumer tech OEMs and ODMs. To meet the exploding demand for its solar cells, the company opened its state-of-the-art Fab 1 factory in Scotts Valley, California ? which has capacity to produce tens of millions of solar cells each year and completed its first shipment of production cells in Fall 2023. In 2025, the company will be opening Fab 2, Ambient's second US-based factory to further scale to meet demand and deliver on orders.
