Running on solar energy means that you do not have to pay anyone for electrical power, solar energy is free for everyone. This means saving up money and cutting on electrical bills.

This can be good for outdoor places like gardens, backyards or sheds, or other places without electricity. At home a nice option would be to use LED solar flood light as a front door or garage light combined together with motion detector to save up more energy and provide longer work time with one charge at time.
