Hello!
Im looking for a cheap & simple solar setup to get some light at my wood shed/storage spot. I only require roughly 10/15 minutes of light for when I go to chop wood at night.
The location is under some trees/has no sunlight - so I would have to run cable to a solar panel roughly ~10m away. Looking to jsut pwoer a simple LED strip or something
(maybe this -->? https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p...--fyXyFbajZrvDbCRrxoCe_8QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds)
(Or this? not sure which is better --> https://www.jaycar.com.au/48-led-aluminium-led-strip-with-switch/p/ST3930)
Im hoping the solar panel will generate enough power in winter (im located in australia so fairly sunny)
