Are there any good solar Christmas lights? My research is showing these are not truly waterproof, low quality and have a high rate of early death. Also, the specs are too embarrassed to disclose the battery source (I would think you would need at least 8 nimh AA, 16 NiCd or 2x18650), much less the lpw rating of the bulbs and drive level.
I hate plugin Christmas lights, I can't look at them without seeing a copy of the electric bill in my head and thinking of the children on poorer continents with only 1 watt of light each night. But suspect that a good set of solar Holiday lights will run double the cost of what I am seeing, and the positive reviews, are those who just got the lights, or got the 1/3 portion of those lights that aren't shipped defective.
