The solar panel that sits on top.
Solar motion sensor light circuit.
So batteries and the circuit dictate the solar cell size there are some of these lights with pr sensors that use a 3 7 volt battery and a solar cell of 4 5 volts.
This can be done on perfboard too.
A simple circuit controlled by two major things.
When the pir sensor distinguishes anybody in its range.
The solar security light.

The figure beneath shows an automatic solar powered motion detecting sensor for outdoor lights.
Like any solar energy device solar motion sensor lights work by harvesting the sun s energy to either power a light immediately or to store the energy for future use.
The light is designed to be mounted on a wall that has direct visibility to the sky above it.
It will charge a 6v 1 2ah lead acid battery in the day time within the sight of daylight and enact the lights after sunset.
A solar motion sensor light usually features a metal frame and is typically positioned so that it can receive maximum solar power.
The solar panel sits at the top perpendicular to the wall that the unit is mounted onto.
