Going through the solar lamps and rocks: Most still worked and just needed the batteries charged or changed, some attention with the switch cleaner and to the battery contacts, and the solar cells cleaned up with some Brasso to remove the mistiness on the surface that they develop over time.

Down to 3 rocks that need closer attention, one lamp that wont turn off in the sun and one that does nothing at all.

Two of the rocks above probably need my upgraded solar cells and batteries as they are the older 2 battery types. The remaining one has had the upgrade but needs the chip changing as the leads have rotted through.

The lamps must be well over 10 years old and the plastic (ABS) is getting brittle. They did cost quite a bit at the time but are very bright and much better than the tat turned out today.

Edit: The lamp that did nothing was just flat batteries, cleaned up and working now.
