Solar?

There's thousands of them.

That's so cool, I did a little poking around on Amazon and there are so many new solar light products around now. Is there anything I should look for for a long lasting solar light product?

We use lots of them. The only helpful hint I can think of is that if they aren't working well try cleaning up the solar panel.

Dust or grease can block the power source. We just wipe them with a damp cloth now and then.

I'd love to hear what you use them for. I saw lots of ideas on Amazon, but would love to see how someone else is actually incorporating them.

We recently had tremendous storms and power was out for more than a day. We used a string of solar lights on the coffee table to make the room feel better.

They lasted for hours, and then we just went to bed.

We use them on the stairs and porch outside. They last for years.

If the light is inside, where does the solar panel go?

In the window. Ours is lying on a shelf. We have one on a windowsill.

We used to have one hanging on a curtain rod, but replaced it.

Anywhere sun is daily.

My favorite joke is to place the solar panels near your cats. They have always been solar powered. 🤗

My cats will definitely find a patch of sunlight wherever they can.
