But, how about the eco. costs of making this stuff, the plastics, battery and solar panel? I have 12 of these things and when I got them out of winter storage I found only 7 of them worked. Three had faulty bulbs and one a bad battery and one a broken wire on the circuit board. That I was able to re-solder. It now works okay. To date, I have been unable to locate repacement parts of any kind. When they stop working are we to simply trash the entire unit? That is most certinaly not eco. freindly. I also question the life cycle of the battery. Though small (AA) they do contain dangerous heavy metals and should have special disposal handling. So, considering all aspects, these things, though inexpensive, do not appear very eco friendly. Just my 2cents worth. bill Sure, the sun is eco. freindly and all that.
