Hello Deadpool, Ring Solar Panel are weather resistant and are designed to work in all weather conditions. The first step in maintaining a good solar charge throughout the year is ensuring your solar panel is properly installed in a well-lit area that receives direct sunlight for several hours per day. "Direct sunlight" is when the Sun hits your solar panels in a perpendicular fashion. To ensure your solar panel receives direct sunlight, your device should be unobstructed by shade from trees or nearby structures, such as a home's shadow, overhangs, or trees. By ensuring your lights are mounted with a clear view of the Sun’s rays, you will maintain a steady charge rate during the day. For people living in the US, this also means installing your light on the southern part of your home so your solar panels face true south - or towards the equator. Facing your panels south gives you the best chance of receiving direct sunlight. While you may still receive diffuse (as opposed to direct) sunlight rays when installing your light on the north side of your home, you are severely limiting your device’s charging capabilities. This is even more pronounced in winter months when sunlight is already lacking.
