Extending a solar cell?

262 Views 4 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  Oldmaster
I had recently mounted a solar cell under the eave. The solar cell controls a bunch of lights including two post lights and four step lights leading up to the front door.










I guess I mounted the solar cell too high so it's under the eave and not getting enough sun so it's "in the dark" a lot.


I know I can move it lower. Is there a way I can mount a conduit to the box so the solar cell can be extended "further out" from the existing box? I don't think using an extension ring to push it out another 2-3" will make a difference, might have to be 10"-12" I think.

Swap the conduit around and come out of the bottom of the box.
