Nowadays, solar-powered LED lighting is becoming more and more popular, the package of which includes a battery that charges during the sunny time of the day and releases its energy at night. With the help of a photosensitive element, at nightfall, the lamp turns on independently. Such a lamp is easily carried from place to place, well illuminating the space.
