By the time you get done building something that can run that kind of power, you'll have spent thousands of dollars on panels and batteries. It's the same with the electric car, great in theory but the reality is it's a lot of up front cost for little performance. You'll have to wait for us to catch up to George Jetson - maybe in 500 to 1000 years. Sorry you would need a HUGE solar panel and a bunch of batteries to produce that many watts.

Could be expesive. Try a system that uses low wattage LED. The link is for a turn-key system that will actually work. It is not cheap. If you have grid power, use it with a battery backup system. 2 100 watts is a lot of power for a solar system. Could be expesive. Try a system that uses low wattage LED.

You would have to get solar cells and transfer the power into a motor which would give the lights power.... I would goto Home Depot and purchase ones that are already set up for Solar Power…..

Maybe you could design lamps made up of hi-output LED's. If you did that, the size of the solar panels and storage batteries could be reduced! :-)= Too much power required to be economical.
