[QUOTE="Wheel Gun, post: 2348937, member: 19286"] It's a pretty good idea. This summer, I realized that I'd wiped out enough of my driveway lights that a new set was warranted. Walmart always has them cheap, so I bought a box of them. The display box is a flat box with a dozen or so holes in it and the lights just stick in the top of the box. This clusters a dozen of the lights right next to each other in a rectangular pattern. I bought the whole box and took them home. Well, I pulled the little battery strips from each and got ready to put them in place. But, something interrupted me and I just put the box of lights on the ground in the sun and ran out of time. At dusk, I put the box o'lights in the garage. At bedtime, I noticed light coming from the garage and figured someone had just left the light on out there. I was shocked to see that it was my box of solar lights. A dozen solar lights all clustered together, after a day in the Summer sun, puts out an impressive amount of light. I hadn't thought about this since then, but a box of these in the bunker might be a good idea. If you don't pull the little battery strip/tab, they'd probably store for a long time. Cut off those ground spikes and build a little rack to hold them. Free light. Not a shabby idea. [/QUOTE]
