#1. Do I need to take the light out of the bottom of the lantern and set it in the sun to charge it or can I just stick the whole lantern outside and let it charge?
#2. Do I need to have the switch turned to on or off? Or does it even matter?
Thanks
Just to clarify..do I need to turn it to on or off while charging it?
It is an "Eden’s Garden" solar light. I don’t know if it was cheap or not because it was a birthday gift
Pervaiz Lodhie of LEDtronics proposed the innovative idea of implementing solar-energy in tandem with the LED lights. A 4.5-kilowatt solar-panel system located near the bridge generates electricity that is then sold to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power. While the LED lights themselves do not directly tap into the solar-generated power, the Vincent Thomas Bridge is the first of its kind to leverage solar-generated power to pay for the cost of operating decorative lighting. A total of 160 LED fixtures light both sides of the bridge, 80 LEDtronics units affixed to the apex of the suspension cables along with an additional 80 located at deck level. Each LED fixture consumes only 19.5 Watts of power, making LEDs the perfect complement to solar energy. Several variations of LED lamps were tested before the solar-powered, environmentally friendly Blue 360-LED lamp received the go-ahead. Blue was chosen because it would standout amid the amber-colored lights and maritime navigation indicators in the Los Angeles Harbor. www.LEDtronics.com

i got my father a set of solar powered lawn lights as a fathers day present and he just said i dont want them and asked me to give him the cash i paid instead, i was kind of upset but i just gave him 60 bucks and thought if thats what he wants thats best. but i really feel bad that he didnt like my gift. so i kept them anyway and put them around the garden. he went out lastnight and said how nice it looked and when i woke up i seen he had put the money on my dresser. now im stuck. i want him to have a gift he likes but he gave the money back, should i insist he takes it to buy a gift he likes or just keep it?
I was given some solar lights for my yard. They run in a line and the metal ends pinch into a cord. The cord runs to a box that has a small hole for solar to charge. The box has a plug that requires it to be plugged in. If it is solar what is the meaning behind plugging it in? Strange..

If Ed Begley is around maybe he can help also!
My home is directly southwest facing and needs a completely new roof (composite shingles)
I would like to place solar panels across the entire front of the roof. approximately 900 square feet in the front of the house.
1. Do I reroof underneath the panels first or can I leave the old shingles on underneat.
2. Will this be adequate to take me off the power grid in my 1800 square foot home and outside lighting in garden aea?
I have a washer, dryer, fridge, dishwasher and electric stove, and air conditioner to run.
thank you for all your help. I need to make this decision before having the new roof put on.
We’re making a portable solar powered USB charger with an LED flashlight, this week. This episode shows how to modify a solar path light into an Altoids tin that can then be a flashlight and charge your iPod in the sun. www.greenerbusinessshow.org
Are there any "solar" garden lights available that are bright enough to light a walkway? The one’s that I have seen seem really dull and not much good. If anyone has a brand name & price, it would be appreciated. I’d hate wire the whole back yard to get decent light.
so we have a bunch of garden accessories outside, and they only light up at night time. They have solar panels on them, so obviously they absorb light during the day right? But that also means that it must be stored for it to turn on at night.
So what if your house was solar powered? Wouldn’t the solar energy be stored also? Meaning it would only power your home at night and not the day?
I’m not sure if I understand how that works. The photovaltaic cells convert light into electricity, so wouldn’t that mean the garden fixtures would be on all day also?
Northern nights Aurora Borealis Pics from my yard. Northern lights originate from our sun. During large explosions and flares, huge quantities of solar particles are thrown out of the sun and into deep space. These plasma clouds travel through space with speeds varying from 300 to 1000 kilometers per second.But even with such speeds (over a million kilometer per hour), it takes these plasma clouds two to three days to reach our planet. When they are closing in on Earth, they are captured by Earth’s magnetic field (the magnetosphere) and guided towards Earth’s two magnetic poles; the geomagnetic south pole and the geomagnetic north pole.On their way down towards the geomagnetic poles, the solar particles are stopped by Earth’s atmosphere, which acts as an effective shield against these deadly particles. When the solar particles are stopped by the atmosphere, they collide with the atmospheric gases present, and the collision energy between the solar particle and the gas molecule is emitted as a photon – a light particle. And when you have many such collisions, you have an aurora – lights that may seem to move across the sky
I installed this Westinghouse solar light on my aunt’s back deck. The light uses 4 1-watt LEDs and is turned on & off via wireless remote. This video was shot in late afternoon. Will get some footage after dark soon. I bought 3 of these at Sam’s Club for less than 20 bucks each. Pretty good light for that price. One of them didn’t work until I discovered they had installed the battery incorrectly. Now all 3 work fine.
