Solar lamps allow you to create the same lighting as a traditional system, but offer many more advantages. It is important to know the system that garden lighting uses to make the lamps work. Whatever the type of lighting chosen, solar energy is able to satisfy any need by means of a small solar cell that conveys the sun’s rays and uses this energy to ensure that the element lights up. Let’s now begin a more detailed analysis of the different garden lighting systems that use solar energy.

The solar lanterns must be placed inside the ground and everyone can choose the most suitable height. The structure is very simple, they consist of a base and a small solar panel on the end. They do not require any particular care, they light up when they are charged and the intensity of the light progressively decreases as the accumulated solar energy charge decreases. Some models also have infrared sensors that increase the light intensity of the lantern as you approach. The solar panel has a metal body and a glass cover that protects it from shocks but also from bad weather. Moreover, they are a fairly durable product over time.

For this kind of solar lighting, and for all the other models, it is good to point out that the only cost to be faced is the purchase cost since there are no maintenance costs. Unlike the traditional system, which involves the purchase of the light bulb and also the cost of electricity, when choosing solar energy you do not have to face any expense. This is an important economic advantage, especially for those who have a very large garden to illuminate, and this certainly also allows you to place more light points. Not only does the energy of the sun have no cost, it is also renewable and clean. By renewable we mean inexhaustible and non-polluting, thus combining respect for the environment with economic advantage. Solar powered garden lanterns are also wall mounted. In this case the light is projected downwards, differently from spotlights, where the light is instead emanated upwards. They are basically used for two different spaces in the garden.

The spotlight is able to properly illuminate the passage in that area. The solar panel is located in the upper part, and if it is an inclined lantern, the few rays that the sun emanates during the winter are also optimized. The solar powered solar spotlight can be with or without a motion detector. It is always applied to a support or can be fixed directly to the wall. The wall mounted solar panel street light has a sloped panel and also an internal battery. Usually a series is used to adequately illuminate a passage. Some small solar lamps have a suction cup and can be placed anywhere.

The main problem that arises is how efficient solar lighting systems can be during the winter. In reality, the results are quite satisfactory because, depending on the different inclination of the panel, it is possible to capture the few rays of the sun even during cold days. The system that uses solar energy for outdoor lighting represents a novelty that arouses the curiosity of many, who then when they discover the numerous advantages cannot resist the temptation to buy a solar-powered lamp. There are still some skeptical people, but to be convinced it is enough that they have the opportunity to experiment personally.

As for costs, they vary according to the model chosen but are basically in line with those relating to the traditional outdoor lighting market. The choice of the use of solar energy is a conscious and very important choice that allows you to respect the environment and thus begin to spread a very important concept: it is essential not to pollute. Outdoor lamps are one of the novelties of the sector, they have different shapes, some are very simple, others have particular dimensions and, using the energy of the sun, generate brightness. It is also interesting to experiment in this sector with new possibilities that allow us to search for different materials. There is no law that obliges the purchase of solar lighting systems, but it is a personal choice and those who care about the health of the environment certainly cannot do otherwise. Sensitizing the customer and orienting him towards the purchase of a solar system is important because it allows to spread this new culture that enhances renewable sources, and in this specific case, the great resources that the sun can offer us, at no cost.
