You can charge it up during the day and it automatically turns on at night.
Plus sun-powered lamps are cheap to buy and won’t add to your fuel bill.
Let solar energy light up your life for less.
BRIGHT IDEA: Solar-powered garden lights look lovely and are low-cost.
To light a path or the side of a flower bed, inexpensive stake lights are your glow-to.
Look out for deals, such as a set of four bauble lights from Dunelm, now half-price at £10.
You can also loop solar lights through trees.
For a summer party, try the string of ten lights in pretty pastel colours from Matalan, down from £11 to £8.80.
IN AND OUT: You can use the power of the sun to light up lamps to use indoors.
Some lights have sensors to absorb the sun’s rays when put outside.
Dunelm has a solar lantern for £9, and the Tesco solar rattan table lamp is down from £20 to £15 with a Clubcard.
MAGIC IN A BOTTLE: For a stunning outdoor display at garden get-togethers, fill empty bottles with solar bottle lights.
This works best if you group a set of bottles together. You can get a pack of six solar bottle lights from The Range for £8.99.
It’s a fantastic way to give a new life to an eye-catching gin or wine bottle that is just too pretty to be thrown away.
GUIDING LIGHTS: Solar kit really comes into its own when you go camping or to a festival.
Decorate your tent with fairy lights so you can find your way back to it in the dark.
You can get a string of 100 outdoor lights for £9 at Wickes, which charge in the sunlight and then illuminate for six hours.
You can also use the power of the sun to keep phones charged while off grid.
One of the most affordable is a Mixx solar powerbank, down from £17 to £12 at Robert Dyas.
