Brunton SolarFlat Amorphous Solar Panel

Item #BRU0188 | 0 in Stock

What is the minimum panel that will power a string of Xmas lights...

By Ranked #242 - Lighting December 2, 2008

What is the minimum panel that will power a string of Xmas lights - 50 LED "New Ray" lights - in Boston, in the winter. Collector will get x thousand footcandles, but not necessarily direct sunlight in the winter (it's Boston!) The small stake panel lit string lit for 10 hours after full charge in direct sunlight indoors but only 1/2 hour in overcast outdoors. Ideally want to have 3 strings powered. Installation is in semi-public location and theft is a risk. [We promised to put lights on tree at half-way house, so we are very motivated to get it done, but trying to avoid being stupid... sigh] thanks
