Solar Power Outdoor Lighting

I've looked on packaging of several models of solar LED lighting, and can't find any kind of information on brightness. How is that determined?

I don't have time to do a lot of research on this so I need your help. I'm hoping to find an outdoor solar-powered light that either turns off automatically when it's light, or is motion-activated but stays on for a minute or two after kicking...

A 15 watt halogen bulb is really bright, much brighter then a 15 watt incandescent. Wattage isn't how much light it gives off but rather how much energy it consumes. Lumens is how much light it gives off.

I don't have any outdoors sockets and want to put up Christmas lights on the front of my house. I do have one outdoor light next to my front door but there is no plug, the wiring dissappears into the wall.

Go to your local home building store. In the electrical department you will find a "Y' connector on one side you put in a plug in and the other a light bulb. You screw the "Y" connector into your outdoor light. This gives you one out
