I have an area on the side of the garage, about 28-30 feet long, that has enough lighting to walk without stumbling at night, but would like to add a bit more light. I saw these ( http://www.lowes.com/pd_111185-337-MSLED1801UT_1z10fip__?productId=3743705&pl=1 ) and I think it would fit my needs...

Any thoughts on how good, or not, solar powered outdoor lights are now? A few years ago I wouldn't even consider it, but not sure if they have come far enough for consideration instead of running line to an eave or other location. Also, in the event of power outage there is an obvious...

In 2 weeks I have a solar consultant coming to the house. I'm thinking of going all solar instead of the generator route (although I will have a small generator for backup). Anyone have first hand solar experience to share?

Hey guys. Looking to set up a panel on my shed to power a trickle charge to my generator battery for a key start. I'm not handy with electric. Please help me figure what I need and how it should be set up. Again. Just to charge my battery for the gen starter. Bonus would be to have a small...
