                                                                  This guest article discusses the use of solar lighting for the patio, deck or yard. Outdoor solar lighting has improved over the years and is a viable alternative for outdoor lighting.

                                                                  Are Solar Lights Viable For Home Use?
                                                                  by Darell Brown

                                                                  Outdoor solar lights are an effective way to spruce up the outside of your home and to avoid paying on electricity each and every month to have a great look for your landscaping. Solar lighting in general is more viable than ever before with the current technological advances, and homeowners all world wide are discovering how affordable, 
                                                                  attractive, and long-lasting they really are.

                                                                  A common misconception surrounding solar lighting is that it will not stay on once the sun has gone down, and that the lighting itself is not strong enough to make any real impact. With today's indoor and outdoor solar light options, these once-true preconceptions are no longer how it is. Today's solar options are equipped with nickel 
                                                                  metal hydride batteries to retain the charge even after the sun has set. These batteries will provide power to a light fixture for five to eight hours, which is perfect for most outdoor use.

                                                                  Aside from a financial or environmental standpoint, what else makes solar lighting a good option for landscaping and general outdoor use? 
                                                                  The design. There are actually several manufacturers of these kinds of fixtures these days, most of that are getting creative with their designs. Aside from the classic standards, cute and novelty patterns are becoming popular to go with the theme of pretty much any home or landscape. Animals and flora are both popular choices, as well as some more abstract designs.

                                                                  The solar lighting of years past is gone, and today is a extremely viable option for pretty much any home. While solar fixtures are not all that popular for indoor use due to restricted battery charge, they're very popular outside of homes and businesses alike because they're an inexpensive, eco-friendly, and trendy option. One can save a good sum of money per year on their power bill just by switching to solar-powered fixtures for the outside of their home, and they could still feel safe knowing that they'll have good visibility with those fixtures late into the night.

                                                                  Most home improvement and even interior design stores carry some sort of outdoor solar light fixtures, and every store will have something completely different. There are also plenty of options for shopping over the internet if you are looking for a specific style or theme to your lights. Though a few years ago you'd have never thought you could possibly use solar lights at night, but today it is very possible and is a sound option.

                                                                  There is almost no reason not to switch to solar light fixtures for your patio,deck, or landscaping needs. This type of lighting is more viable, stylish, and affordable than ever before, and finding the perfect solar patio lights is just a few clicks away.
