Do solar lawn lamps charge while power switch is off?
Question:
Answer:
Mine don't . I took one of them apart to see how it worked and if the switch is off the solar cell is not connected to the light or the batteries.
The ones I have uses a diode which has voltage limits is how it turns off the light in the day light. A diode has a voltage range and when the voltage is over the set voltage the light will turn off. An extra wire is ran from the switch to the batteries so the they keep charging when the light is off. Really cool setup.
