How does a NST solar light work?
Solar energy (Direct Current-DC) is collected via the solar panel(s) and is transferred to the power system. The power system stores the energy and either keeps the voltage at Direct Current (12 or 24VDC) or steps it up to Alternating Current (110VAC) using power inverter. This stored power is then used to operate the light. The power system turns the light OFF automatically by sensing low voltage from the solar panel when the sun goes down and automatically turns the ON when it senses the higher voltage when the sun comes up the next morning. It is critical to size the solar panel(s) and power system according to your geographic location and the wattage of bulb(s) to be used.
