Q
Before assembly
The solar panel installed in the article converts sunlight into electrical
energy and stores it in a NiMh battery. Switches on the light as it
begins to get dark. The in-built light-emitting diodes are a very
long-life and energy-saving light source. The light duration de-
pends on the amount of sunlight, the angle of light on the solar
panel and the temperature (the battery capacity is temperature-de-
pendent). A vertical angle of light at temperatures above the freez-
ing point is ideal. The battery does not achieve maximum capacity
until after several charge and discharge cycles.
