I am not sure if this is the right forum but here's my query. I want to install some garden lights but, for various reasons cannot use a mains source of power so am considering 12v lamps powered by a 12v 12Ah sealed, rechargeble lead-acid battery (eg a Yuasa NP12-12). I thought that a solar panel, for example a 12v 4.5W charger, would keep the battery topped up. Based on empirical evidence (not vendor's often overly-exaggerated data), would this be a viable arrangement and, if so, how many lights could I reasonably run from the same battery (say, 3 hours lighting a few evenings a week)?
