This will help you get the most use out of the batteries without having to change them so often.

Ask yourself what do you want to accomplish with these lights? Would it be just path or landscape lighting, garden decoration or figurine lighting, spot lighting of different articles or plants that you have in your yard? Do you need to light up a set of stairs, patio lights or lights on your fences? Do you want color or just white lights? Or maybe you need a little bit of everything for just the right atmosphere. There are all different types of solar outdoor lighting to choose from for different types of applications. Take some time and shop to see what there is to offer for the types of lighting that will be the most beneficial and satisfying to you.
