I think Canadian Tire actually sells the caps with LED lights built-in and you just replace the caps...

DIY Solar LED lighting?
I have just built a fence and I want to incorporate some solar LEDs under the lattice cap. Any kits out there selling the solar panel and leds?

That copper one is pretty nice, but I actually want this for the rail that caps the lattice (not the post). Besides I would need 6x6 post caps and really didn't want to spend 25+/cap.

Solar light strings
I'm thinking you're looking for something like christmas lights that you can string under the header?

I'm not sure if these at Factory Direct are for outdoor use = 7.5m.
and an 18m version

I wasn't thinking Christmas lights and rope light is too much light, but some of the Christmas kits there could be modified easily, plus they have the solar panel and charger worked out. The factory direct might work too, but I am a bit skeptical of that solar panel.
Anyway, that looks like it could work.
Thanks
