Are solar barricade lights truly more environmentally friendly than battery powered barricade lights?  Well, to be honest I do not know the answer, but by posting this I hope to stir some thought about this ‘green’ product as well as others.  Though you may not need to change the batteries and worry about disposing them (as often) with solar barricade lights, they still may not be ‘green.’

In other words, do we know what these solar barricade lights are really made out of?  Solar barricade lights still have batteries in them, so are they any more or less recyclable than the 6 Volt or D cell batteries we find in battery powered lights?  This may be worth looking into if you want a ‘truly’ green product.
