Solar Power Panel
Monday, May 31st, 2010

can you connect a electric lamp to a Solar power panel?
i have a outdoor lamp i want to turn into solar power.
as long as the panel produces the voltage and current the lamp needs, yes.
if not, you will need a converter or inverter.
and most people hook the panel to a battery and the lamp to the battery. it evens out the bright sun days and cloudy days, and a lamp that only works when the sun is out, is not much good.
