solar traffic safety cone - what’s up with that?

Please don’t hurt yourself rushing to buy this piece of crappy Chinese solar technology.
This collapsible traffic cone presumably fits in one’s trunk. The little built-in solar panel charges a rechargeable battery that powers red LED bulbs. Add some reflective ‘material’ and you have a supposedly green highway safety gadget.
No info on how a it gets solar-charged while stored in the dank, dark trunk of your Smart car…do Smart cars even have a trunk?

Solar panels on traffic signs and call boxes have been using solar panels forever….this is nothing new…
Intended as an example of something dumb…rather than ‘new’. Lighten up.
