I have some of those solar power lights in the back yard (garden) and no
matter how bad the day they always have some amount of light when it goes dark.
remember they are light powered Not specifically even (direct) sunlight.
Wonder what sort of charge you would get parking your car directly under the
street lights.....
Could be useful.

Don't knock it until you've tried it (as a lady once said to me after
making a particularly bizarre suggestion...). I have a solar trickle
charger wired in to Carly's battery, and despite the typically dank and
overcast weather we've been having over the past few months, I still
always seem to have enough juice to start on the button.
