Kept Awake By Solar Lights

Posted on February 21, 2006 at 08:19

My sweet husband and I have been wanting to get some solar lights for our backyard for some time but they are sooo expensive. We found a good deal on a box of 15 for less than a hundred dollars at Costco, so we bought them. Some of the areas we were going to put them in are a little shady so we wanted to charge them in direct sunlight before putting them in the ground. My older girls opened up the box, peeled off all the solar covers, turned them on and placed them all on a table on the back patio. The tops were all facing out toward the sun and the light up parts towards the house. Did I mention that the table that the lights were on is right outside my bedroom? The lights charged well and all lit up after dark and stayed lit alllllll night. All 14 (one was already in the ground, it was our “test” light) … all fourteen of them stayed lit up alllllll night facing our bedroom window. I was amazed by how well the lights lit up our room! The window in our room is a very large with vertical blinds and it all just kind of glowed. I slept horrible, I need dark!! Lol

This is so funny, I shared this with my husband who laughed and said, "Remember that when we buy ours."
