Poundland's solar uplight
I think the main feature of this light is the combination of the solar panel, LEDs and circuitry onto a single PCB with a thick resin coating. It means that the only other components needed are the NiMh cell and the switch (which can be shorted out for reliability.)
If I sound a bit lacklustre in this video it's partly because I was tired when I made it, and was also slightly disappointed at the lack of hackability due to most of the components being potted in resin.
The housing seems sensibly designed and will tend to sit above the surface it's positioned on, reducing the risk of water penetration.
If modding this I recommend adding some resin, hot-melt or other glue to the wires on the back of the PCB to avoid them snapping off.
If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:-

This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.
