Imagine a solar powered light fitted into a wall, the lightbulb on the inside of the builing, the back of the lamp which holds the solar cells on the outside of the wall..

Errrr....No offense, but wouldn't a window serve the same purpose? :-)

I've tried solar-powered outdoor lighting, but our homesite is so heavilly shaded that they won't take a good charge. It's either solar lights or trees and ain't nobody cuttin' down my trees!

However, we do have a solar-powered clothes dryer. It's called a "clothesline".
