Noma Solar Powered Deck Lights? Just purchased 6 Noma solar powered deck lights; it seems some go on completely as nightfall sets in while a couple of the others continue to flicker off and on for several hours. They are all well under sun light during the day and are getting the same amount of "solar" recharging; we've had them for about 2 weeks. Does anyone know why this is happening or could they be defective? Should we take out batteries & replace? Any "light" (no pun intended) anyone can shed would be appreciated.
It does sound like they are defective. It sounds like the circuit to turn the lights on is not working. Check the photo-cell on those lights to see if it is clean. Its best for you to just return those and get new ones. Below is a link that may help you. References : http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/lighting/
We, my wife and I, have bought once solar powered garden lights. I discovered that the rechargeable batteries should be charged first. They stopped giving light at 23.00 hours although we live in the tropics.
My suggestion is to charge the batteries first and then enjoy the lamps for the rest of their lifetime and discharge them later.
Solar energy is nice to talk about and use in an calculator.

No Sun, no energy.
