My 12 volt holiday tumbleweed.

cabin2-275.jpgIt was really windy today. In town, there were tumbleweeds blowing everywhere. I decided to buy a string of 12 volt LED lights from the guy at The Solar Shop and decorate a tumbleweed for the holidays.

The lights are hard wired to my storage batteries and only draw 1 amp hour all day. They look pretty, but I was hoping they would give off more light. I might wire them to a cigarette lighter plug so I can unplug them.

Update: Once my eyes adjusted to the darkness these were okay. Giving off at least enough light to find my headlamp.
