| | Read Articles from Solar Lighting: | | | | How to use Solar Garden Lights | Solar garden lights work by storing sunlight during the day then using this to power the lights during the night. The light will
consist of a solar panel to absorb sunlight and generate power, a Nicad or NiMH battery to store the power, a photoresistor to detect
when daylight levels drop, a controller board to switch on the light, and the light itself. LEDs are a very efficient form of lighting
as they produce light but no heat when electricity is passed through them, each LED producing approximately the same amount of light as
a 2 watt conventional bulb.
The amount of power produced by the solar panel will depend on the strength and duration of the sunlight, so these lights will work
better during long, sunny summer days of summer than short, dull winter days and in locations where they can receive the maximum amount
of sunlight during the day.
With a full charge from a sunny day solar lights should give you about 10 hours of illumination at night. The light from an LED won't
be as bright as from a conventional bulb so if you want a brighter light look for lights that contain a bank of LEDs. Read More about How to use Solar Garden Lights
