LED Solar Garden Lights Are Easy on Spring Budget

As for solar garden lights, in the process of cleaning and maintenance, I believe that many people are most concerned about how to effectively clean and maintain solar street lights. Judging from the current situation, there is a lot of cleaning and maintenance work for this equipment.In the process of cleaning the solar garden light equipment, let's take a look at the actual situation of this equipment. Because the equipment itself is placed outdoors all year round, it is said that a lot of dust and dirt accumulate, which may affect the operation of the equipment. Therefore, it must be cleaned regularly, and you can wipe it with a rag when cleaning. However, during the cleaning process, we must maintain consistent movements and not rub back and forth. And in the cleaning process, the intensity should be moderate, especially when dealing with some chandeliers or other lighting, and the cleaning should be gentle.In the process of cleaning solar garden lighting equipment, everyone must pay attention to cleaning all places. When cleaning the bulb, you should turn off all the lights first, and then you can remove the bulb and wipe it separately during the wiping process. If you are cleaning directly on the lamp, do not turn the bulb clockwise to avoid tightening the entire lamp holder and causing it to fall off.In the maintenance process of solar garden lights, it is necessary to pay attention to layer-by-layer maintenance on the basis of maintaining all lamps and conduct regular inspections and maintenance. When you encounter problems, you must fulfill your responsibilities, and do not hang some decorations on the lights.Shining some light on solar garden subscriptionsFor area homeowners, even renters, the offer is out there: Sign up for a community solar garden and potentially save thousands of dollars on your electricity bills. There are reasons for people to be dubious - skepticism about door-to-door sales strategies used by some solar organizations, the daunting nature of signing a 25-year contract, the complexity of a program that's a mix of government, a massive power company and private developers. Other than a mortgage, people are not usually accustomed to putting their signature on a legal agreement spanning decades. But a community solar garden subscription offers a genuine opportunity to save money, along with supporting renewable energy, according to proponents of the program. And at least three options exist for Xcel Energy customers in Blue Earth County, giving people a chance to shop around and compare. "They likely have access to a community solar garden that will provide them a good value," said Dan Thiede, communications director for Clean Energy Resource Teams. While signing up for a subscription is not difficult, the benefits vary widely by developer. Some offer a straight discount on a subscriber's electric bill. "Sometimes you can get (the savings) locked in as a discount - maybe save 10% on your utility bill," Thiede said. Others offer the prospect of much bigger savings, but the size of the windfall is more speculative. "We generally think it's a good idea to reach out to several companies if several are available," Thiede said, comparing it to hiring a contractor or buying a new car. "It's nice to be able to compare bids, and that's the same with community solar." The 2013 Minnesota Legislature created the program to give homeowners and other customers of Xcel Energy a chance to invest in solar energy without installing solar panels on their property. The legislation requires Xcel to purchase power from community solar gardens constructed and operated by private developers. The developers, though, can not just pocket all of the payments from Xcel. The builder and operator of the solar array must sell subscriptions to residents, businesses, churches, schools and governments within the county where the array is located or within a county bordering that county. Homeowners who subscribe will generally pay a monthly subscription fee to the community solar garden developer - a share that can be the equivalent of as much as 120% of the homeowner's historic electricity consumption. As each subscriber's share of the array produces electricity, it goes to Xcel's Energy's electrical grid. Xcel then credits the subscriber for the energy production, offsetting all or a portion of the subscriber's regular Xcel electricity bill. During the long days of summer when the sun is shining for more than half the day and solar arrays are pumping out electricity, subscribers might see their entire Xcel bill wiped out by the solar credits received. In fact, the subscriber might be consuming less electricity than his or her share of the solar garden is producing, in which case Xcel banks the unused credits in the customer's name and taps into that bank of credits in winter months when the days are short and the solar arrays are less productive. Over the course of the year, the value of the credits paid by Xcel should exceed the cost of the subscription fees paid to the community solar farm developer. Institutional subscribers might be offered a contract where they pay a lump sum up-front for the subscription and benefit over time via the Xcel credits that will reduce their monthly electricity bills. The city of Mankato, Blue Earth County and Mankato Area Public Schools all have large subscriptions. Just last month, the city purchased another subscription from Cooperative Energy Futures for the new array it began operating in November near Janesville. US Solar has sold subscriptions to Bremer Bank, the YMCA, and the cities of North Mankato and St. Clair for community solar gardens it built last year near Good Thunder. For residential subscribers, most will be offered a "pay-as-you-go" subscription, which involves little or no up-front cost but will entail paying two bills each month. They will be billed monthly by the community solar garden operator for their subscription. And they will continue to receive their monthly Xcel bill, minus the credit - the size of which will be based on the amount of solar energy produced by their share of the solar array. One type of pay-as-you-go subscription has a set discount - the subscription costs are locked in for each of the 25 years, with the annual increases in the subscription rate spelled out in the contract. The value of the solar credits offered by Xcel are also fixed, including the annual increases, and the value of the Xcel credits are a bit larger than the cost of the subscription fees. "Our prices are all locked in," said Dana Hallstrom, residential program manager for Minneapolis-based US Solar. "You know what your rates are to start and for the full 25 years." Even with those fixed rates, the ultimate savings are not completely locked in because they will be determined by the actual amount of electricity produced by US Solar's next solar array - one under construction near Nicollet. If the array is a bit more productive than expected, savings for subscribers will be higher. If it pumps out less electricity than anticipated, the total savings to the array's subscribers will be less. For this story, a subscription application was made to US Solar for the rural Nicollet solar array that's expected to begin operation by mid-summer. After giving Xcel permission to share the electricity consumption of the one-story, three-bedroom home in Mankato, US Solar offered a subscription it projected would provide $89 in savings the first year, an annual benefit that would gradually decline to $79 a year by the end of the contract. The cumulative savings were estimated at $2,089 over 25 years. That home actually uses less electricity than a typical home, so the savings stemming from the solar subscription are less, Hallstrom said. "The average is actually $120 savings (the first year)," she said. That brings the cumulative projected savings to about $2,850 for the average subscriber. Information about US Solar subscriptions can be found at us-solar.com/minnesota. Another subscription application for the same Mankato home was made to Cooperative Energy Futures for the solar garden near Janesville in Waseca County, and the offer by the co-op represented another subscription model. That model is based on the assumption that Xcel will continue to regularly increase its rates over the next quarter century and those rate increases will exceed the increases in the solar garden subscription. The projected savings are more speculative but also much larger, with the estimated savings for the Mankato home projected to be nearly $10,000 in reduced electricity costs over 25 years. The projections were based on the assumption that Xcel will raise its rates annually by 3% a year - making bill credits provided by the community solar garden more valuable. The cost of the subscription, by contrast, will increase only 2% per year during the first eight years of the contract, at which point the subscription cost would remain constant for the rest of the contract. In the first year, Cooperative Energy Futures would charge the Mankato homeowner $1,190 for the solar garden subscription while the credits applied to the homeowner's Xcel bills would total $1,276 - a savings of $85. By the eighth year, with those 2% annual cost increases, the annual subscription cost would reach $1,304 and would stay at that level for the final 17 years of the contract. If Xcel's rates rise by 3% a year, the solar energy credits applied to the homeowner's electricity bills are expected to total $1,461. Subtract the cost of the subscription from the Xcel bill credits, and the projected savings total $157 for the eighth year. After that, assuming Xcel's rates continue to rise by 3% annually, the savings really start to accelerate because the subscription costs are no longer increasing. In the 20th year, for instance, the savings are estimated to be $656. In the 25th year, it's projected to be $899. The estimated total savings stemming from the solar subscription for that Mankato home are $9,976. "Basically, people are locking in a stable utility rate over the 25 years," said Timothy Denherder-Thomas, general manager of Cooperative Energy Futures. "So as utility costs rise, you are saving more and more money." Of course, the savings would be less if Xcel does not raise rates by 3% a year. What happens if some revolutionary new technology is discovered, and the cost of producing electricity actually falls? That would threaten the savings predicted in the Cooperative Energy Futures contract. "So you are taking a little bit of a gamble that way," Thiede said. "... That's why some organizations who are a little more risk averse sign up for the discounted rate." But even if power generation somehow becomes surprisingly cheap in the future, Denherder-Thomas said Xcel will probably still be raising rates for the foreseeable future. The reason, he said, is because Xcel's investment in existing power plants and other infrastructure wo not be paid off for decades to come. For a subscriber to actually lose money, Xcel's rate increases would need to average well below 1% a year over the next 25 years, Denherder-Thomas said. More details can be found at www.cooperativeenergyfutures.com/subscribe. CleanChoice Energy is a third solar garden developer taking subscriptions for 15 arrays being developed in Minnesota, including in Blue Earth and Nicollet counties. More information is available at go.cleanchoiceenergy.com/solar-in-mn-bluebird/. More options may arise if additional arrays are built by other developers. Other opportunities will disappear when arrays reach capacity as subscribers are added. Cooperative Energy Futures officials said their array may reach capacity before the end of this month. US Solar expects to continue accepting subscriptions a bit longer for the Nicollet array. "I would say by the end of spring it would be filled, if not sooner," Hallstrom said. A 25-year contract might seem unworkable for many people. Renters probably do not expect to be in their current apartment anywhere near that long. Even homeowners might figure on moving up to a bigger house or downsizing as children leave the nest. Older residents might wonder if they will be in an assisted-living center, a nursing home or even more constricted quarters in 25 years. Which is why it's important to look at the fees related to breaking the contract, according to a community solar garden advisory issued by the Minnesota Attorney General's Office. "Cancellation penalties can be expensive," the AG's office warns. "Therefore, consumers ... should consider whether they are able to commit to the entire term of these agreements and the penalties they will incur if they must break that commitment." Subscribers can transfer their subscription to a new home as long as they are still in Xcel's service territory and as long as they are still in a county adjacent to the location of the solar garden. Alternatively, someone selling a home can transfer the subscription to the home buyer, assuming the buyer wants it, or to anyone else in the eligible area, Hallstrom and Denherder-Thomas said. If a subscriber simply wants to immediately break the subscription, there's a fee. Denherder-Thomas said the fee is waived by Cooperative Energy Futures if three months' notice is provided. Hallstrom said US Solar allows people to cancel every fifth year. Otherwise, fees as high as $250 will be charged for immediate cancellations. Cooperative Energy Futures offers something most community solar developers do not : a chance for almost any Xcel rate-payer to participate. "That's kind of the approach we've taken from the beginning," Denherder-Thomas said. Applicants with low credit scores are often rejected by other developers. Cooperative Energy Futures does not even require a credit check. As mentioned earlier, subscribers also can get out of the co-op's solar program without penalty with three months' notice. The reason the cooperative can deal with a less stable batch of subscribers is that they establish a back-up subscriber to take over any portion of a solar array's energy production if residential subscribers fail to keep up on their subscription fees or otherwise drop out. That's a role the city of Mankato recently agreed to play. Mankato's subscription will involve 15% of the Janesville array's capacity with the solar credits providing discounted energy for street lights and power consumed by the civic center. The city's contract allows its share to grow to as much as 40% of the array's capacity to cover gaps created by those shorter-term residential subscribers who leave the program. "Our additional capacity and allotment will allow renters and small-business owners the opportunity to participate with short-term agreements that can be canceled at any time with three months' notice," the City Council was told in a Jan. 27 memo. "... The city's backup subscription provides access to residents of all income levels to join and receive value from the solar garden." The Attorney General's Office cautions subscribers to look closely at the details of a contract before they sign up. Understand if there are any up-front costs of a subscription and look closely at the subscription "escalators" that push up the monthly costs over the years. Also be wary of projected savings that are based on predictions of excessive increases in utility rates. Thiede considers a prediction of 3% or less to be a good escalator: "If it's 5%, then 'buyer beware.'" Also look closely at cancellation penalties. "Those should be clearly printed in your contract," Thiede said. "If it's not, you should ask." CERTs, which has a mission of connecting Minnesotans to the resources they need to implement clean-energy projects, does not recommend specific solar garden developers. But Thiede said the organization does recommend doing a little research on a developer before signing up: "Do they have staying power to be around for the next 25 years? What is their background, and do they have the right experience?" Thiede said a reputable solar garden developer offering a good contract is likely to provide savings to subscribers, considering how electricity costs have risen historically. "But nobody has a crystal ball on the future," he said. Thiede has a community solar garden subscription, is satisfied with the results, and regularly looks at how his Xcel bill is reduced by the solar power credits generated by his share of the solar array - particularly in the summer months. "I do not actually pay a utility bill, typically, from May until September," he said.

Fit new rechargeable batteries, the ones they usually come with are of a low standard, but it can be cheaper to buy new lights, as the cost of the batteries can be more than the units are worth!!1. deciphering growing lights specificsThe important factors are the light spectrum and the lumens , not the watts.

Gardens are usually the first location visitors appear at when they enter your gate or drive by your house. A huge majority of the population invests significant amounts of precious time and energy making sure their garden is in tip leading shape. The problem is although that unless the garden is nicely lit no one can completely appreciate it when it really is nighttime. Most homeowners do not comprehend that their gardens might be greatest displayed and appreciated throughout the night. The remedy to this problem is easy. Install solar powered garden lights so you'll be able to see your garden both day and night.SensorsAmong the greatest rewards of solar lighting today is sensors. Most outdoor solar garden lights on the market nowadays have sensors to detect the dusk as well as the dawn. The sensors turn the lights off through the daytime and turn on automatically inside the night. Solar Lights once installed are self effective. Even in the midst of a power outage the lights will continue to function.SecurityAnother benefit of solar power garden lights is the security they provide. By illuminating your property it'll not just appear far better but deter criminal activity. Low lit areas have verified time and once more to be hotspots for criminals to conceal themselves from sight. Foundation plantings, shrubs, and densely wooded locations of one's yard are frequent hiding spots for would-be burglars. Crime statistics show that if burglars are at danger of getting noticed in a bright light, they are not most likely to hide anyplace in the location.InstallationInstallation no longer requires an professional technician, and you'll find no far more high electrical bills with lights burning all night. A commonly wired light fixture would require someone to come set it up, run the wires after which ground them properly. With solar lighting, all that's necessary to set it up would be to place the light fixtures where you need them. These will likely be either mounted on a pole or wall or they could be basically staked into the ground. The video I have added below shows you just how easy it really is to install solar garden lights.Prevent Theft1 question I get asked frequently is how you can stop solar garden lights from finding stolen. I've heard many various ways from pouring cement to installing security cameras. The cheapest and ideal suggestions that I have received is to do as follows. Drill a hole by way of the base of each and every light. You want the hole to be just beneath ground level. Subsequent string a plastic jacketed steel cable although all of them. Lastly, dig a shallow trench between the lights to location the cable. I've by no means had or heard of any lights being stolen with this strategy.LED TechnologiesOne of the principal concerns that I hear is that solar lights are dimmer than regular lights. This may have been the case years ago but new LED (Led Emmiting Diodes) technology has changed this belief. Depending on the model some solar lights are just as bright as conventional lights. One more thing to consider is the fact that LED's lasts longer than conventional lights since there is certainly no filament in them and they don't waste power by giving off heat. Most of these lights have many LED's and have a reflector inside to give off maximum light which is distributed evenly.LED solar lights are potent sufficient to supply fantastic lighting for your garden.Shopping for Solar Garden LightsIn one way or another, we all desire to save some funds.

These lights will not leave any carbon footprints and are completely safe to use. In fact, they have several features and advantages that are beneficial for both you and the environment. The use of these lights reduces the depletion of natural resources. Here are some of the benefits that solar decking lights offer.Solar energy is one of the safest and best forms of energy. Although, the earth receives 174 petawatts of solar radiation, approximately 30 percent of it is reflected back in to the space and the land, oceans and clouds absorb the remaining 70 percent. Solar garden lights use this renewable energy and help to save our depleting sources of energy. These lights get charged during the day from the sunrays and light up in the evening. They also use mirrors to track the sun's rays. Solar energy is also utilized for thermal purpose and in heating water, cooking, air conditioning, and for water treatment like solar disinfection, solar desalination, and solar still.BenefitsSavings - Installation of these lights drastically reduces your electricity bills. These lights do not need electricity connection or charging. The panel is fitted in an open area to draw the sunlight.

As a proud home or business owner you have many reasons to supply outdoor lighting around your property. By illuminating the exterior portion of your home or business you are sending a subtle signal to strangers that your property is occupied and secure. At the same time you, your family, and all those who are welcome can navigate outside of your home in a safe manner.Outdoor landscape lighting comes in many forms with numerous uses. Primarily, you have a choice in the type of lighting you select and in many cases you can use a combination of both. For a bright constant glow you may choose low-voltage electrical landscape lighting. Although these lights are brighter they also come with a cost as monthly electrical bills will be impacted by this style of lighting. Furthermore, installing an electrical landscape lighting system is more complicated, requires various components, and offers less flexibility when comparable outside solar garden lights. The low voltage systems also depend upon an external electrical source.No such complications exist with outdoor solar garden lights, the other primary style of landscape lighting for homeowners to consider. True, the intensity of a driveway solar light is not as bright as their low voltage counterpart, however cost of ownership, installation, and durability are superior to low-voltage electrical systems. Outdoor solar garden lights can be easily installed anywhere exposure to direct sunlight is available. Once a location is selected, solar garden lights also can be relocated with ease by simply removing the mount and reinserting into another location.In many cases driveway solar lights and other solar powered pathway lights are mounted onto a ground stake that's easily tapped into the ground. The driveway solar light fixture is then mounted on top of the stake and secured with a twist or snapping mechanism. Other outdoor solar lights can be mounted directly on top of the ground along curbing, on steps and stairs, and on other solid structures such as fences or posts. Typically, all mounting hardware for these various applications are included with the light fixture.Low voltage systems reduce the electrical current from 120 volts to 12 volts by utilizing a transformer. Obviously this system requires external electrical access and the need to dig a trench about 3 or 4 inches deep to bury the electrical cable mounted to the lights and connecting to the transformer. The 12-volt system costs also must include not only the light fixtures but also the transformer and electrical cable. In addition to longer installation periods for this system, a homeowner also must consider other issues like potential voltage drops for lights installed furthest from the transmitter. There's less flexibility with electrical systems as the lights usually need to be installed in line allowing for the connection of the power cable between lights.Certainly low voltage systems do emit a consistent light throughout the night whereas solar powered outdoor landscape lights reduce in intensity throughout the night and are least bright as the sun rises. However, a homeowner needs to consider all options before installing a lighting system. Solar lights offer a softer glow but they continue to be a very suitable outdoor lighting option.

I would recommend you check out the offerings at www.campmor.com. Everything they sell is decent quality or better and they have dozens of models with very good comparison tables on size, weight and featurs. On a budget, all of the Eurekas are an excellent and I have heard good things about the fairly new Big Agnes brand. They also tend to have specials like discontinued models. I've bought gear from them for about 20 years and have always been pleased with products and service. L.L. Bean's house brand tents are well made and designed too. For packing in a lot of rain and wind, I recommend getting a tent with a good sized vestibule fly -- it's really nice to have that sheltered space for cooking and gear storage. Also, a catenary angled roof, rather than a curved dome, can be better at shedding wind and hard rain, but a dome does give a more spacious feel inside which is preferable if you are stuck inside for a while. Again, it comes down to personal preference. Bargain tents that I would avoid are the house brands at Sears or Walmart. I would be careful of Coleman and Swiss Army too -- mostly made in China with flimsy materials.How do I get tent stakes to hold in sand?This is somewhat like some camping I've done in a place with barely a half inch of soil over bedrock. Obviously, stakes do not work there, either. In that case, we used stones to weigh down tent corners and guy wires. No matter where we stopped our canoes, we knew we could find plenty of stones. However, the beach may not supply that. I suggest that for each stake you would normally have, you bring a square of burlap, about a foot and a half on each side. Burlap is cheap and water goes right through it, while sand holds pretty well. It's nice and lightweight to carry in your tent pack, lighter than your stakes. Turn each square into a stone-sized sandbag by scooping a couple of handfuls of sand into the middle of the square of burlap, then tie it shut with a bit of twine. After you strike camp, just untie or cut the twine, dump out the sand, and you are good to go. It will probably survive a couple of camping trips before you need to replace it, but burlap is cheap and available at any fabric store.Why do people always complain about the size of their tent?It's been that way ever since I can remember with dome tents, if I go to buy one I always figure double the size I want and that works out!Why are refugee tents white?So they can be recognized as a refugee or noncombatant tent and (hopefully) not attacked
