About this item

The Solis Orbit is the small one: a nebula projector head on a 12 cm gooseneck with a USB-A plug on the end. It rotates a full 360 degrees, the head focuses, and there is one button. It is 23.5 cm end to end and it runs off any USB socket, including the one in a car.

  • It bends and it stays bent — A 12 cm gooseneck and a head that turns through 360 degrees means you aim it once and forget it. Nothing droops, nothing needs a bracket, and it works pointing straight up out of a socket beside a bed.
  • The one that works in a car — USB-A straight into the socket, small enough not to be in the way, no battery to remember. This is the shape people actually keep in a car, and the supplier sells it that way.
  • Nothing to charge, nothing to pair — No cell, no Bluetooth, no app, no remote. It comes on with the socket. There is a real argument for a device that cannot run out of battery and cannot lose its pairing.
  • Type — USB nebula projector
  • Overall length — 23.5 cm

Customer reviews

What owners say

  • It lives in the car now

    Plugged into the socket, bent up at the roof. Waiting outside school in winter is a completely different experience for the kids.
    Dana Ruiz
  • Bend it once and it stays

    The gooseneck has actual tension. I have had cheap ones that flop by the second week.
    Carl Jorgensen
  • It is the cheap one, and it looks it

    Twenty dollars of plastic. It works beautifully, but do not expect the finish of the bigger ones.
    Suzanne Ekwueme
  • No battery to go flat

    The best decision they made. It runs off the socket, always ready, nothing to charge or replace.
    Pete Grenville
  • Focus it properly

    Out of the box mine was a smear. Ten seconds turning the collar and it was points of light. Do that first before judging it.
    Meera Kulkarni
  • Best twenty dollars I have spent on the car

    Genuinely. More reaction from passengers than anything else in it.
    Hugo Lindberg
  • Works just as well indoors

    Wall socket behind the bed, bent up at the ceiling. Did not buy it for that and it is where it has ended up.
    Cheryl Tomsett
  • USB-A, and my new car is all USB-C

    Needed an adapter. Not the product's fault but check your sockets before ordering.
    Raj Vaidyanathan
  • Head rotates a full circle

    Which matters more than it sounds - you can aim it anywhere without moving the plug.
    Anneke de Vries
  • Bought four as stocking fillers

    Every single one has been used. That is not my usual hit rate at this price.
    Gordon Ifeanyi
  • Not for a driving light

    The listing says stationary only and they are right. It is genuinely distracting in motion, so I only use it parked.
    Tessa Mowbray
  • Tailgate camping upgrade

    Seats down, boot socket, projector on the roof lining. Two minutes of setup for a much better night.
    Dylan Ashworth
  • Light headlining ruins it, dark one is great

    My wife's beige interior barely shows it. My black one is superb. Worth knowing before you buy.
    Farida Osman
  • Small enough to leave in the glovebox

    It lives there. Comes out at viewpoints and for waiting around.
    Stuart Maclennan
  • The plug is chunky

    In a tight double socket it crowds the second port. Fine in a car adapter.
    Yvonne Baptiste
  • My son's room, permanently

    Bought for the car, lasted one week before being confiscated by a nine-year-old.
    Alec Fontaine
  • Cheap enough to buy two

    One for each car. At this price I did not have to think about it.
    Bridget Nkomo
  • It is a nebula, not stars

    Diffuse cloud plus points. If you want a photographic sky this is not it - buy the disk one. For the money it is exactly what it says.
    Warren Fitzgibbon
  • Survived a summer in a hot car

    Left on the dash in direct sun for months. Still works, nothing warped.
    Leonie Schaffer
  • Turned a long drive around

    Stopped for food, put it on, and the mood in the back seat completely changed.
    Gary Oduya
  • No off switch on the unit

    You unplug it. Fine in a car, slightly annoying on a wall socket behind furniture.
    Christa Palmer
  • Focus collar is the difference

    Most cheap ones do not have one. This does, and it is why it looks better than its price.
    Ravi Chandrasekaran
  • In the caravan awning all summer

    Runs off the 12 V socket. Cost less than a bottle of wine and did more for the evenings.
    Joan Thistlewood
  • Kids call it the space light

    Not much else to say. Goes on every journey after dark.
    Emmanuel Sarpong
  • 23 cm is longer than I pictured

    Sticks out from the socket more than the photos suggest. Not a problem, just measure if your socket is in a tight spot.
    Ingrid Halvorsen
  • Perfect glovebox object

    No battery, nothing to break, nothing to charge. Ready whenever.
    Marcus Delacroix
  • Better than the one built into my friend's car

    His is a factory option that cost hundreds. Mine cost twenty and covers more of the roof.
    Noor Hassan
  • Dim next to the mains ones

    It is USB-powered, so it is never going to match a plugged-in projector. In a car that is plenty.
    Terry Blackwood
  • Bought it sceptical, use it weekly

    Assumed it was tat at that price. It is not.
    Alicia Verhoeven
  • Goes in the hand luggage

    Hotel ceilings. Weighs nothing, needs no adapter beyond a USB port.
    Jonathan Speed
  • Three months in the car, no rattles

    It has been through winter, potholes and a car wash with the window down. Still solid.
    Femi Adebisi
  • Works, but read the safety note

    Do not stare into the head. Obvious for anyone who has handled a laser, less obvious for a child - it is worth saying out loud.
    Rhona Kirkbride
  • The gift I now default to

    Anyone with a car, anyone with a teenager. Never had one come back.
    Sebastian Iwu
  • Fits the boot socket in a van

    Works as a rear cabin light for camping. Not what it was made for, but it is excellent at it.
    Petra Lindgren
  • No app, no pairing

    Plug it in, it goes on. That is the whole interface and it is perfect.
    Douglas Menzies
  • The stars move slightly

    Very slow drift rather than static. Some people want static. I like it, but it is worth knowing.
    Ayesha Rahimi

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from the Solis Astra?

Price, size and what lands on the ceiling. The Astra is a disk projector with a real lens throwing a sharp photographic sky, at three times the price. The Orbit is a small nebula projector on a gooseneck that plugs into any USB socket. Do not buy the Orbit expecting the Astra's image.

Does it have a battery?

No. It runs from the USB socket it is plugged into, which is why it works in a car and why it never needs charging.

Will it work in my car?

It takes USB-A at 5 V, so any car USB socket or a 12 V USB adapter will run it. Aim it at the headlining, not at the driver, and do not set it up while moving.

Can I focus it?

Yes - there is a collar on the head. Set it for the distance you are throwing to; an unfocused nebula looks like a smear.

How many colours does it do?

The supplier does not publish a count or a mode list, so we are not going to state one. We will list them from a unit.

Does the room need to be dark?

Yes. Any projector needs the lights off.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are confirmed and processed within 2–3 business days (Monday to Friday, excluding Chinese public holidays), then typically arrive within 6–12 business days in the US, UK, Germany and the rest of Europe, or 8–15 business days in Canada (7–14 elsewhere), tracked all the way to your door.

Is shipping free?

Yes, on every order of $29.99 or more. Below $29.99, standard shipping is a flat $9.99, shown at checkout before you pay.

What is your return policy?

30-day returns, no questions asked. If it isn't right, contact us and we'll arrange the return.

Is there a warranty?

Every product carries a full 1-year warranty on top of the 30-day money-back promise.

Which payment methods do you accept?

All major cards, PayPal, Apple Pay and Google Pay — processed through Shopify's encrypted, PCI-compliant checkout.

How do I track my order?

You'll get a tracking link by email as soon as your order ships, and you can check progress any time on our Track Order page.
