If you're asking would I use the wires that come out of the lantern, yes. Since I'm (frankly) unaware of alternatives. Frankly = clueless on electricity.

My concern about a battery is that in summer it can get HOT where I am. I can come up with schemes of where to hide it but my concern is if a battery can simply spend weeks at a time over 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

When you say 'charger' do you mean a mechanism that instructs the solar to be saved to the panel? Or from the panel to the lantern/bulb? Or both?

Thanks for your response.
