If you have lights outdoors, why not let the sun power them?
Outdoor Solar Lighting, like all Solar Power, is clean, natural and sustainable. A solar energy home can help you reduce your energy usage which helps reduce pollution. How? By using Solar Energy, we put less of a strain on the power plants that cause pollution.
How Outdoor Solar Lighting Works
Sunlight is collected and stored in a battery so when you need the light, it’s ready to go. Some can even collect sunlight on cloudy days. And they work with no wires.
A Solar Light has two parts: 1. the light itself and 2. the solar panel.
The solar panel collects the energy so it must be in the sun to charge the battery.
Some units have the light and the panel together in one piece and some units separate the light and panel. This allows you to put the light where you want it, even in a spot that does not receive much sunlight, as long as the panel is in the sun.
Note: There is usually a limited distance you can separate the light from the panel. Some lights allow a larger distance between the two.
