Why the bulb light up at night?
Because electricity is flowing through it. If you are referring to a light that turns on automatically at night and off in the day, this is usually done with an electronic switch controlled by a photocell. However some are controlled by electromechanical timers and involve no electronics at all.

Can you wire a photocell to work at night instead of during the day?
Photocells are designed to work at night when it gets dark and turn off in the morning when it gets lighter. If the photocell is on during the day then it is not working the way it was designed to. Time to get a new one.

What is street light?
A solar street light is the same as a typical electric street light; however, it is powered by the sun and is typically grid free. The solar panel provides the energy needed to run the light at night and stores the energy in a battery bank. At night, the photocell (solar panel) sees that there is no more sun available and turns the light on. The light runs during the night using the power provided in the battery bank. Most commercial solar street lights provide up to 5 days of backup storage for cloudy and rainy days.

Why does your outdoor area light turn on and then off over and over?
If the fixture is a photo cell driven device at night when this happens the most likely cause is the photocell is seeing a light source from its self. Reposition the sensing head so that the light from the bulb is not reflected into the photo cell. The cycling is caused by the unit thinking it is daytime when the light is on so it shuts off. When it shuts off it thinks it is night time and turns on. <<>> The light bulb might be about to call it quits, or you might have an electrical fault. Try changing the light bulb; if this makes no difference, you'll need to call an electrician.
