Motion activated lighting with solar charged battery power
Here's the problem space. A relatively high powered LED light (four feet of 60/meter LEDs) that consumes about 17 watts is being powered by a 7Ah sealed lead acid battery and the available power for recharging the battery is from a 2 1/2 watt solar panel. Figuring roughly 10 watt hours out of the panel on a given day, there is only enough power to run the LEDs for 35 minutes every 24 hours. So if the LED lights aren't very very smart they'll be useless.
