A little Light were you need it!
Ever walk up to your front door after dark, and with one hand your carrying something, and in the other hand holding your keys getting ready to unlock the door so you can get inside as quickly as you can. You either forgot to leave the porch light on or you just got home after a long day at work. That’s understandable, but you are still having a hard time putting the key in the key hole in the dark.
Have you ever walked out to the shed or garage in the dark, same situation you can’t see to put the key in the key hole and you forgot the flashlight. Been there, Done that!
I found a solution to that problem: it’s called Smart Solar-Solar Key Hole Light. Smart Solar-Solar Key Hole Lights are Solar Power LED light highlights keyholes, door handles and entrances to sheds, garages, greenhouses. Comes with interchangeable covers allow the appearances to be changed to match the door, or as a personal preference. The light stays on for 10 seconds and automatically switches off to conserve energy. It’s powered by an integral low light level Solar Panel to constantly recharge the internal battery ( lithium rechargeable battery ). Easy to use, just push the top of the unit to switch on. Easy mounting adhesive pads supplied or screw holes on the reverse side. A little light were you need it, Solar Lighting
that can make life a little easier.
Decorate Your Landscape
One way to beautify your landscape areas is to dress them up with Solar Garden Lights. With the use of Solar Garden Lights
they really make your landscaped areas, walkway areas, deck and patio areas light up beautifully at night and get a full charge during the day, with the exception that these Solar cells do need to collect sun rays during the day. Almost all solar garden lights are made with different designs, shapes, colors, and for a multitude of purposes for lighting up different areas.
Let’s take a look at two basic kinds of solar panels ( also referred to as a PV- photo voltaic cell ) there is mono-crystalline and poly-crystalline. Each one has it’s own output characteristics. A solar panel made from Polycrystalline silicone yields a slightly higher charging output than a Mono-crystalline silicone cell in direct sunlight, slightly less in overcast conditions.
The solar panels I talk about here is rated at 90mA (milli-amperes), meaning it will put out 90 mA of power each hour in high intensity light or direct sunshine. In overcasts conditions, and even when the PV is not placed directly at the light source, the output is greatly reduced. They may go as low as 6mA on an overcast day, in the shade or indirect sun. This is important to know because they use NiCad batteries and each hold 800mA of power, most lights use two of these, for a total capacity of 1600mA. So, if the PV is putting out an average or 50mA per hour, it will take approximately 32 hours to fully charge the batteries. This, in turn, should power the White LED for up to 20 hours. As the batteries discharge, the output voltage will also decline slightly, along with the brightness of the light.
For this reason it is always good to keep the batteries charged, and to keep the PV exposed to light whenever possible, because that is what keeps the batteries charged up to full capacity. With the use of Solar garden Lights you can add beauty to the landscape and to your home, and also for security reasons too!

“I Need Lights in Here”
Do you remember when you have to run to the shed or barn to get something or look for something that you need, and it’s shadowy and dark in the corners. Especially at night time, it is real dark outside and you know you have to chase down the flashlight if your lucky enough to find it. And usually you have to carry the flashlight plus whatever else you have to carry out of that dark building.
You say to yourself, “Boy I wish I had lights in here so I could SEE”.
And you probable think, running electricity out here is going to be costly, especially if you have to hire a electrician to do the installation.
I have a solution to your problem! With today’s technology, We can have Solar Lights!
Just mount the panel outside to hit the sun, and hang the lights inside to elemenate the darkness.
Highlight Your Garden Landscape
While the decision isn’t set in stone as of yet, my wife and I have been thinking about moving to a new neighborhood. As we’ve mulled things over and changed our minds on numerous occasions, I’ve taken the time to improve our property value just in case. I spent the last few months undertaking home improvement projects: repainting the exterior, re-shingling the roof, and even redoing the tile in the master bathroom.
I hired a landscaping contractor to add depth and dimension to the backyard garden area. Then, in a final elaborate touch, I highlighted the new landscape with solar outdoor lighting. Now when potential buyers pass by the house doing an informal evaluation, they’ll be sure to see all the hard work that has gone into turning this once ordinary home into a luxurious abode.
