It’s not the solar panels we were looking at before, but these solar lights from Ikea look pretty darn nice. Plus, they’re good for impressing men and women who don’t shave regularly.

Both the stick and dome lights work on the same principle—they’re LEDs and store solar power in replaceable/rechargeable batteries. No external wiring is required, just place them on the ground and let them soak up the energy.
They’re listed on the Ikea site quite cheaply (5 for $15, 5 for $20) as you’d expect from Ikea, but you can’t buy them just yet. [Ikea via Inhabitat]
