How Solar Lights Work 1 - Why Choose Solar Garden Lights?
Solar lights have photovoltaic panels that absorb sunlight during the day.
When it gets dark outside, the stored solar energy is converted into electricity as the battery charges the battery and powers the LED light bulbs.

Solar garden lights are available in a variety of shapes, sizes and prices. Some applications include:
Pile into the ground along paths and flower beds
hanging on a branch
Attaches to existing structures such as deck columns
Types of solar garden lights
Older models use traditional filament bulbs that only light up for a few hours and often emit a faint glow. Advances in solar lighting technology have resulted in the greatly improved performance of modern solar lamps. Now they're anchored to ultra-bright LEDs that require less power and glow for longer.
Photovoltaic cells are more efficient at storing solar energy. Circuits and batteries are more reliable. These developments allow solar garden lights to now operate year-round, even on cloudy and rainy days.
