How to choose solar lights correctly?

At sunset, most of us put away our garden tools. You can't really weed, harvest or weed in the dark unless you have outdoor lighting. But good outdoor lighting can be expensive, and you'll often need a licensed electrician to install the system in your landscape. Solar lights can be a great option. They're available in a variety of prices and styles, and most can be easily anchored to the ground along driveways or paths, hung from tree branches, or attached to existing structures, such as deck posts.

These lights work by absorbing sunlight in photovoltaic cells. These batteries then charge the batteries that power the flood light, or light-emitting diodes, when it gets dark. Because they used traditional light bulbs, the first solar lights were somewhat dim. But today, most lights use super bright solar flood light, which don't generate as much heat as traditional bulbs. Today's devices also feature more efficient batteries, so they can function even in winter when the days are short. And because solar lights don't require as much electricity as traditional lights, they're cheaper to run.

When you're ready to light up your landscape, use our tips to help you find the right light for your needs:

1. First, decide how much light you want. 

If you just need a soft glow, accent lights will do the trick. You'll find models with amber, soft white, or super bright solar flood light; some even look like they flicker like candles. Accent lights provide the least amount of light in the solar lighting category, but are also usually the least expensive.

Look for solar planters, cubes, spheres, lanterns, and fiber optic bundles; solar string lights; floating solar pool lights; and even decorative lights that look like fireflies, morning glory, and more. Some change color.

2. If you need to mark paths, driveways, or other areas, look for solar path lights. 

They are usually sold in sets of 4, 6 or more. Some can be fixed to the ground, while others use mounting brackets or hooks so you can hang them up. They are in the middle of the solar range in terms of price and lighting.

3. Want to highlight a feature, like a tree or sculpture in the garden? 

Try solar-powered spotlights, sometimes called solar-powered work lights. Most spots are about as bright as a 40-watt incandescent bulb, so you may need more than one. Some have motion sensors to save power when you don't need them, so you can also use them near doors and other entrances.

4. Think about how long you want your solar lights to last.

If you live in an area with cloudy days, or you have a shaded yard, you can still use solar lights, although they perform best when there are 8 or more hours of sunlight per day. For even better results, consider installing a remote photovoltaic panel, which you can mount on your roof or place in a sunny location. You'll need to attach its panels to lights used around the yard.
