able batteries could cause chemical burns upon
contact with skin; that is why you should use suitable
protective gloves.

Q
Functioning
The integrated solar cell
4
of the article converts solar radiation
into electrical energy and stores it in the NiMH rechargeable bat-
tery
9
. The light switches itself on when it starts to get dark. The
integrated LED
2
is an energy-saving illuminant with a very long
life. The burn time depends on the solar radiation, the angle of in-
cidence of the light falling onto the solar cell
4
, and the tempera-
ture (due to the temperature dependence of the capacity of the re-
chargeable batteries). The ideal situation is a vertical angle. Given
the best conditions, a burn time of 6–8 hours can be achieved. The
rechargeable battery
9
will only achieve its maximum capacity af-
ter several charging and discharging cycles.
