Mi Flora battery life

Hmm is 3.2V close enough to 3V?

I wonder if a solar light could be hacked as a solar power manager and power source?

Crush or desolder the LEDs?

Edit: I had a closer look at my local hardware shop (Bunnings). There were only a couple that were 3.2V. They tend to be the higher lumen, higher cost ones (so not so tempting to tinker). Most of the cheap ones are 1.2V. Quite a few use 3.7V (especially in the higher lumen range).
