solar_window_light

This is my conversion of a dollar store solar garden light stake into a window mounted ( with suction cups ) automatic ( with a switch to turn it off) nightlight/ flashlight. other solar light parts could be made to fit but there are so many I cant really say what will and whont fit.

Requires:
-1pc solar garden light ( from dollarama Canada ) the light I used came with the switch and battery mounted to one board .
-2pc m3x8-10mm fasteners
- metallic paint ( or something similar to make the reflector reflect)
- clear paint ( for no particular reason I just like smooth parts)

INSTRUCTIONS :
-Print the lens and panel mount that fits your panel that is installed into you garden light .

-Paint the lens portion with metallic paint , then clear coat when satisfied with effectiveness.

-Use hot glue to attach the panel to the holder , then solder the leads back on to the board in the appropriate connections .

-Use small screw to hold board in place and use hot glue to secure the board further.

• Now attach the lens reflector , by feeding the led thorugh the hole ( may need to be cleaned or opened slightly)

-Use m3 screws to fasten the 2 cases pieces together.

-Glue in suction cups to the holes on the panel side .
