I purchased some "wedge" solar lights about 8 years ago from the "Improvements" catalog. Each light shines straight down, (not in your eyes). I have 3 lights on the deck, (12X12) on the rail support posts, and 3 lights on the stairs going down to the patio. The units each have 3 batteries and keep light on for 8-10 hours. The batteries need replacing about every 2 1/2 years. The deck is lighted well enough with just these 3 lights to be amble to sit around and share drinks and snacks in the evening with friends. I can highly recommend these, (I'm not sure if this same item is still available).
