Solar cell controlled mooring light with various bulb types.
14.4V .240A # 1891 lamp the 2nd night I used it the light sensing control system failed in the
off state.
Note: a 14.4V .330A # 1816 is readily available at auto parts houses.
a 14.4V .200A # 1815 lamp may be a reasonable sub for the 1891
I loved the anchor lamp when it worked with the .100 A lamp that only draws about .075 at 11V.
The auto parts house will special order the 1813 but I need to buy ten at a time
roughly $19.00. I guess I'll buy ten next spring and leave the energy efficient mooring lamp on 24/7
I also bought an Intermatic Inc. Model LZ 10131 Garden lamp with built in solar panel, 1.2Volt/700mAh battery, but it did not give out much light. click here for pictures.
In the winter of 09' I learned about Malibu's solar collector for 8 LED's (three batteries) and built in controller. All 8 LED's run off of the 3.75 Volt battery combo. click here for pictures of the adaptation. visible more than one mile. Click here for the pictures.
