Light Up The Night With Solar Outdoor Flood Lighting

Many homeowners illuminate their outdoor areas to extend their use after dark and end up paying the price on their electric bills. Flood lighting can provide light over a large area for outdoor living or for security, but the added cost to the monthly bill may inhibit its use. With solar outdoor flood lighting there are no additional electric costs to prevent people from using the lights any time they choose.

Solar power pathway lights are in use in many places, more so out of convenience during installation due to the low amount of electricity they require. However, not having wires running through the yard also makes it safer for children and pets. With solar outdoor flood lighting there is no need to run electricity from the house, often requiring the services of a licensed electrician. Again, the lack of wiring improves safety for children and pets who may end up playing with the light.

Some of the most popular solar outdoor flood lighting also have remote control on and off switches to enable them to be turned off at night when the light is not needed or wanted. While some may choose to keep them lit for security purposes, others may not want the additional light penetrating their bedroom and will turn them off. Solar power motion detector lights are also available that will only come on when activity is detected.

Outdoor Activities Continue After Dark

With so many families spending a lot of time outside in good weather, they want the fun to continue after dark but may want some light, especially around swimming pools or patios. Using one or more units for solar outdoor flood lighting can do so without the fuss of installation and cost of electricity, extending the hours available to enjoy their outdoor lifestyle.

They are also great for camping and installation is as simple as setting them up, making sure the photovoltaic panels are pointed towards the sun. There is no need to carry batteries for flashlights and fuel for lanterns and can be switched off when not in use at night. Solar outdoor flood lighting are especially helpful for remote camp sites where electricity is not available.

Having light from solar outdoor flood lighting available around a campfire, even in the backyard can make the experience safer reducing the chance of tripping and falling over unseen obstacles in the dark. They can also help stop the approach of wild critters wanting to investigate the darkness for unknown noises.
