Somewhat mower related. I rigged up a solar cell and two 12V lights mounted to the ceiling. I mounted a cigarette lighter on both mowers.
When everything is plugged together, this whole setup serves three purpose:
1) Solar cell recharges my batteries over the winter
2) Lights get power from my lawnmower's batteries
3) Lights my cigs while mowing
Everything is wired in parallel. So power can transfer from the solar cell to both light bulbs and both batteries. No switches involved. I just unscrew the light bulb to turn it off.
