Well here are the pics of my solar panel lit sheds! and they work!!!...........of course they do I here you say............well I must admit I had my doubts but yes they do and we have even had some sun to charge them! I am now going to sort out solar panels for the electric fence batteries which will save electricity in the summer although with our current lack of sun they will have to have extra charging in winter. I have also got yet another water butt and a water diverter for the down pipe from the lower roof.....we are now a 4 water butt family!
Also bought some scaffhold planks that were no longer suitable for their original purpose and here they are in my trailer.....they are 13 ft long and make super raised bed edges.
