We live in Arizona and have lots of sunshine. We installed solar outdoor lighting in both the back yard and the front yard. The lights look great and are so easy to install.

Using the sun is the way to go. Just think if everybody would tap into the power of the sun. Many wasted and unnecessary use of the earth would be eliminated.
