Solar Powered Landscape Lighting

Solar powered landscape lighting is becoming very popular these days and was even featured on Good Morning America, August 28, 2008. There is really no reason to use traditional wired landscape lighting unless there are areas of the garden that just do not get enough sunlight. Solar lighting is powered by the sun and must have some sunlight in order to operate properly. Five hours of sunlight is usually enough to keep the battery charged and ready for operation come nightfall. The lights use a photoelectric cell that turns them on at dusk and off in the morning.

Solar Lights are made from a variety of materials, such as plastic, metal or stainless steel. The lighting mechanism is almost always LED lights. LEDs (Light Emitting Diode) are quite bright, draw very little current and last a very long time, typically up to 50,000 hours. There is a battery to store the power, usually Lithium Ion or more commonly Nickel Metal Hydride. These batteries last about 2 years before they have to be replaced. The very inexpensive plastic lights do not have replaceable batteries, something to consider. There is a small solar panel on top of the light fixture to generate power during the daylight hours to keep the battery charged, so the light will function at night. These lights are very safe and quite easy to install. Just find a location that gets ample sunlight, use the ground mount stake and drive it into the ground. Be careful not to hit the stake with a hammer if it is made of plastic, it may be damaged. Some lights can even be mounted on walls, posts or fences and often come with all of the mounting hardware necessary.

There are a wide variety of lights to choose from as well as a variety of applications. Solar walkway lights, light up paths or walkways. Solar spotlights light up trees and other outdoor features. Solar Shed lights light up remote storage sheds with easy installation and minimal wiring. Solar address lights are self explanatory and there are even patio umbrellas with solar lights for that dinner party on the deck after sunset. The lights usually come in sets but the number of lights in a set varies. Some have two per set; some have four and some six. Prices seem to vary considerably with some sets costing $30 to $40 and others closer to $100. The difference in cost is reflected by the quality and brightness of the lights, how long they will last and styling.

So if you are considering installing solar powered landscape lighting you might want to ask yourself a couple of questions first. Is there enough sunlight to keep the lights powered? What kind of application will they be used for? What kind of styling do I like? Am I looking for lights that will last a long time or do I just need them to last a little while? How and where will I mount the light and is all of the mounting hardware included? There are prices, styles and types for any budget or taste. Solar outdoor lighting is a great way to improve the look of your home and to improve the outdoor safety of your home. They are very easy to install and on top of every thing else, they will lower your energy costs.
