I made a big deal out of these back in February, but one of my solar lights has given up due to internal corrosion (unusually wet winter/early spring) so I sent off for a replacement – we had a pair of owls in the garden and for reasons beyond me, this time we ended up with a horse – but because of course the acrylic bits are detachable from the solar supply, I could re-use the original owl which has been decorating our living room in one of the USB-powered equivalents.
So now we have a horse AND an owl – the two owls look great together in the garden. We love them. Maybe a little silicone this time.
My Owl is still going strong with the clear waterproof tape over the solar panel. And it’s been a tad wet out there….
Our problem with that would be the extreme heat here in Southern Spain in July/August, the sun would ruin any tape in no time – glad its working well, they are great.
