Solar Post Lights Outdoor

Solar post cap lights are very simple in their operation. During the day, sunlight collects on a solar collector panel, which turns it into usable electricity, which is stored in the internal rechargeable battery. A photo sensitive sensor in the top of he unit 'sees' the sunlight, and knows when to turn the light on and off. As long as they get plenty of sunlight during the day, your solar post cap lights will continue to provide hours and hours of gentle nighttime illumination.

Homeowners who have decided to use an outdoor post light for safety and security have made a decision to install an important safety feature as well as adding beauty and light to their yard. This type of lighting is the most common type of lighting found in lawns and along neighborhood streets and highways. Outdoor post lights that are installed along streets and highways are typically called streetlights while the same lights installed in the landscape lighting plan are outdoor post lights and come in various types with various installations.

Most utility companies will install a streetlight or outdoor post light for a nominal fee. The homeowner simply puts in the request to the utility company and chooses where they want the light post placed. The utility company sends out a crew to install the pole and light fixture. Once installed it will power on at dusk and off at dawn through the use of photocells.
