It’s all about the lighting.
When it comes to decorative lighting outside, the electricity is like 90 percent of the headache. It’s pretty easy to come up with cool things to do with lights like this and it’s pretty easy to put them where you want them.
But what are the odds that you’re going to have an outlet outside exactly where you need it to make the whole thing work? Slim to none. You end up with extension cords or a light string awkwardly winding it’s way to the outlet box by the front door, or…something. It’s not usually a good look.
Except these are solar! Which means that in addition to costing basically nothing to run and being vaguely positive for the environment, they don’t need to plug in anywhere at all. You just put them where you want them and then point the unassuming solar panels at the sky.
Super easy.
You can run these wherever and they’re just going to work. The panels will soak up enough juice during the day to run for up to eight hours at night. The simple, classy-looking LEDs can blink or remain solid—totally your call. Change it from night to night if you want. Keep the neighbors guessing.
It’s pretty great. You get 110 lights (times two) and the solar panel (times two). It’s really the easiest exterior home upgrade you can do, especially for fourteen bucks.
