ADVICE FOR THE USE OF SOLAR LIGHTS
Solar Lights are a tricky subject but in certain areas they can be useful and with the development of super bright LEDs now do have a use in the modern garden lighting world.
It should be noted that the vast majority of solar lights are a waste of money however we at Garden Lighting London Ltd have been testing the latest offerings and have decided to offer a small selection of the best via our sister online company Garden and landscape lighting.
The main types of solar lights we recommend are the spot lights and spike lights but particularly the fairy light sets which we have been very surprised with. They are not only bright but simple to use and very effective. However there still are certain limitations with solar lights in terms of aesthetic appearance and switching but in general they are heading in the right direction.
Q: How does solar energy work?
A: When the light shines on certain materials it turns into an electrical current this is turn it into power. The solar cells are made of either silicon (which is very effective but expensive) or copper-indium-gallium-selenide (which is less expensive but at the same time less effective).
