My husband wanted to keep them, and I was ready to sell them. However, we made a compromise. The cords were an electrical hazard, and he just didn't want to take the time to replace the cords. I got tired of staring at them in a box on the floor.
I had an "aha!" moment. I cut the cords off (he can replace them any day he wishes if that's the case), and bought two chargeable light bulbs. We have end tables in our living room, where it needs light, but no way to plug a cord in.
The bulbs work great! Three settings, comes with remote with dimmer and timer. I'm happy, we have extra light (especially in the dark days of winter), and he's happy we have the lamps.
I am however, still wanting to buy solar charging light bulbs. If you have a link for a source (Amazon would be great), please comment. I have two solar (actually 3) outdoor lights already for the new coop, but we would like to have some "emergency" lights for in the ho

Check the October 2nd post for the 5 Acres & A Dream blog. She recommends a solar light bulb.
The lamps are really pretty. I would have never thought of that solution. What a beautiful solution to your no light, no plug in issue. I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you on where to find the bulbs.

What an incredibly smart move! We have an odd space that could use some light and I have never thought of that!
Great idea.

Katie C. I did, but those are sold out on Amazon, and have been since her post. I'm trying to find a suitable set that is similar and not too expensive either.
Betsy, I found mine on Amazon. They have many different kinds. I also found them at Menards. Lowes may have some too.
Anne in the kitchen, we now want to put a small lamp on our counter top in the kitchen for extra light this winter. I can always move it in the spring.
Thank you R's Rue
