So I had bought some of those cheap outdoor solar lights - the ones you just stick in the ground - and they worked for one season then quit.
I recharged the rechargeable batteries and even replaced some, but no dice, these lights are goners!
So now I'm wondering if I need to do something special to recycle them? I will remove the batteries for future use, but what about the tops? They have those little solar stickers on top - what's in them? Anything hazardous?
The main parts of solar power light as
1)solar PV panel (life time 4-5 years)
2)lighting circuit (life time 4-5 years)
3)Recharge battery(life time 1-2 years)
The poor quality battery will have very short life time. some components' pin may break off from the PCB circuit.
