just thought i would share this thing i made up last year or so,it's a battery powered solar yard light for hunting in the forest or where ever light for the night its a battery pack with a 110 volt inverter to power a 9 watt florescent light bulb and charge it with a solar panel in day light found some problems with it if it cloudy and rainy you don't get a proper charge threw the day ,so going to try a 2.5 watt LED light and see if i can get more time out of it

if anybody has any sugestions please post them and let me no what you think

Just thought I would pass this on. Seems good for a small price

There are others , seen them which have a pull cord and they last for hours and easy to pack around ..no heavy weight and not bulky.
