Standalone garage lighting, we consider all possible options

Garage - is the holy of holies of many men, where they spend a lot of time sometimes. And so I just need lighting in the garage. And what if it is in your garage it is not in the near future is foreseen or it is turned off very often. Then let's look at a few alternative ways to organize the lighting in the garage. So, let's begin.

Note. In this article I will tell you about how it is working and less of available methods and about the questionable and even exotic (suddenly is an exotic option is suitable in your case the best).

The use of solar panels

And I'll start with solar panels. Yes, it is not the cheapest way, and the cleanliness and safety of the panels have to constantly monitor, but you always It is light in the room, and if you install more and batteries, even in the dark you will not be without sanctification.

Diesel or gasoline generator

Using the generator, you do not depend on the sun, in principle. That's just the noise from the generator running and the price of gasoline makes use of this alternative source of illumination (and depending on the capacity of the generator can, for example, grinder work) and only quite short urgent case.

Now let's move on to the not quite conventional, and even exotic options garage lighting.

LED lamp with battery

Another decision to make the lighting in your garage is the use of LED lamps with built-in battery. According to the manufacturer, such LED elements able to work on a single battery charge to 12 hours. But personally, I have not yet met the lamp with a large autonomy, a maximum of such light bulbs two o'clock (naturally lamps were from China).

Battery and LED lights on the 12 Volt

A better option in this case would be to use ligament LED lamp (LED strip) and a car battery. In such a tandem you will be provided the lighting for a very long period of time. And then the battery can always be charged. And special efforts to carry this coverage is not necessary.

Well, now let's look has an exotic variant of lighting your garage.

Philippine lights

Philippine lamps work on the principle of refraction of sunlight. And yes, in most regions of Russia, this option is completely ruled out. But, for example, in the south it can be applied.

The essence of this method lies in the following, you consciously are doing in their roof openings (which I in your garage will never do, I'd better put a generator or solar panels). They insert a plastic bottle filled with water, and the remaining slots are sealed with sealant, or any other method.

The finished result looks like this:
