Solar Lights
This is information you need to know when using solar powered lighting system.When selecting lights we recommend you to select DC 12 volt lights. As high watt gives high light. And select energy saving lights. Because energy saving lights give you more light and uses less energy. As a sample a 11W energy saving bulb gives light like 60W.
When selecting lights you can see the picture over like this one the box. And see how much watt does it use.
How to connect lights?
Connect always DC lights in Parallel connection. We are not going deep in why to connect in parallel. A reason is voltage fall. See the picture under for wire connections. Do not connect wires in opposite directions if it is written on instructions for bulbs.
DC Lights connected in parallel
When 3 dc lights connected of 11 watt so Ptotal = P1 + P2 + P3. This mean total power = light1 + light2 + light3. Ptotal = 11 + 11 + 11 = 33W.
