I love your fairy lights and have both plug in and solar, inside and out, and all year ‘round. Since it is now December I put up extra lights. My problem is the wreath on my west facing front door is a dark hole at night, while the porch railings and bushes are twinkling with lights. Is there a product of solar lights with a removable collector so I could set it in the sun on the south side during the day and then connect it to a string of lights in the evening which is 4:30pm these days. If not, I think you should invent this. I would use a product like that in other places as well, like in my north facing guest room, and on the picnic table in the deep shade. Thanks.
