These are mostly plastic but not altogether unattractive. Unfortunately they do not produce enough light to be of any use. If you think about a 1.5 volt LED flashlight these lights seem to me they produce barely that. I would call these marker lights as they might possibly mark the edge of a path but are not bright enough to keep you from tripping over things in the dark.
These are good for the price if you want something temporary. They are not bright to light up the surrounding area but you can tell they are there. They are made of plastic so when you put them in the ground you can’t use too much pressure, which is hard to do… 2 of them disintegrated in my hand – the top broke on one and the bottom on another so I was able to put the good top on the good bottom and am saving the bulb for when another one breaks. Maybe because they are lightweight, they seem to migrate – I have to adjust them from time to time to stand straight up and point forwards.
The amount of electricity your house could produce depends on the roof square footage thats facing the sun or that can have stands to angle the panels. Many people go for a system that gives them about half of their total usage. The actual amount per square foot can vary slightly depending on the pannels you get there are amorphous and crystaline as well as different formulations of the solar material. The best bet would be to contact a solar installer in your area for a free evaluation or for a quick look you can check out manufacturers websites like sharpsolar, bpsolar and I believe home depot also installs solar now.
I hope you have a lot of money cause it is gonna cost you probably more then a years morgage to just buy the equipment. Very expensive, however in the long run it will pay for itself if you live for very long. Do some research and do a web search for solar panels. You will see what I mean. More to it then just the panels too.
