However, these hardly affect the appearance, as they are often not even directly visible - so the solar lamp or solar light chain does not lose any of its design.

However, this is not needed directly in a lamp, as it should only light up in the dark, so a high-quality solar light one battery in which the electricity is temporarily stored . The lamp does all this all by itself with the help of sunlight - so you don't have to worry about anything except placing the lamp in a place where it can soak up the sun.
