Why Do My Solar Lights Come On During The Day? (Easy Fix)
During day time, the solar lights are supposed to stay turned off because who needs outdoor lighting when the sun is shining bright? However, as soon as it starts to get dark, the solar lights'' sensors recognize the absence of sunlight, and the LED lamps light up automatically, using energy stored in the batteries.
Not too hot, not too cold. What''s ''just right'' for solar PV?
We noticed that the amount of solar energy (solar irradiance) on a clear day in summer is about double the sunlight we receive in winter. Despite the fact that temperatures outdoors are higher in summer (sometimes over 40 °C), the amount of light converted to electrical energy is still far higher in summer than in winter.
