Harbor Freight Solar Spotlight Review
What happens here
Because the solar spotlights will be positioned to shine upwards, water can collect in the reflector cup, leading to potential issues. To mitigate this, use a cordless drill with an appropriate drill bit to create a small drainage hole at the lowest point of the reflector cup when the light is angled in its intended upward position. The presenter demonstrates drilling this hole and shows the resulting small opening designed for water drainage.
Goal: Create a drainage point to prevent water accumulation in the reflector cup.
