Ans 1. Take the light out of the box, put it beside your walkway or in your garden, and you're done. Because most solar lights have a built-in darkness sensor, you don't even need to think about turning them on and off. The technology for outdoor solar lighting is constantly improving.
Ans 2. Place the light on its own on an outdoor dining table or with two others for an enhanced, brighter display. To create a focal point in your garden, hang the Solar Crackle Jar from a tree branch. This idea will also look great with multiple crackle jars and makes the perfect addition to a sunset picnic.
Ans 3. Solar lights absorb the sun's energy during the day and store it in a battery that can generate light once darkness falls. Like solar panels used to generate electricity, solar lights use photovoltaic technology.
Ans 4. A photoreceptor on the light detects when it's dark and turns on the light, which is usually made up of several light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The battery then supplies electricity to the light throughout the night. This process repeats on a daily cycle.
Ans 5. You can apply silicone directly on the gaps and holes on the light casing to prevent water from seeping in. Heat shrink wrapping is excellent for sealing the wires and connectors into the bright light fixture. Make sure to seal any gaps that you find and ensure that the material used is waterproof.
