It seems a waste to just throw out working bulbs, so I'm just doing it as they burn out.<BR/><BR/>When I go for groceries, I take a bag full of cloth bags to carry stuff home.

But, if you use the solar panel to charge a SLA battery (I think some lawn mowers run of these anyway)that might be doable.
