Default Solar lights

I would really like some that had a timer - I could turn them off when
no longer appreciated to save flattening the battery every night.


You'll need to roll your own then, decent panel (choose your angle), charge
controller (includes timer), SLA battery, low voltage cabling, marine box.
I've recently put in some non-solar using cheap GU10 spike lights but with
low voltage GU10 lamps instead of mains, very effective but the cabling is
an obvious overhead.
