One of the most economical ways to make your home safer and to highlight architectural features and landscaping is to install solar lighting. Installing solar lighting is an easy project. No special skills or tools are needed and most installation can be done in under an hour using only a screwdriver.

Sun-powered, solar accent lighting outs out enough light at night to mark and outline the locations of dark areas. Solar lighting should be used where a regular source of electricity is unavailable or difficult to access. No wiring is required, and solar lighting is easier to install than low voltage lighting.

The solar collection panel absorbs energy from sunlight and converts it into electrical power that is stored in highly efficient rechargeable batteries. As the sun sets, the solar lights turn on. In ideal situations, fully charged solar lights remain on for up to 15 hours.
