Is anyone familiar with these early SOLAR Brass Headlights?

Re: SOLAR Brass Headlights
Are they charged by solar energy? If so, I wonder why we didn't use solar energy many years ago? There was a few years ago a Depot Hack with a solar collector on the top to keep his battery charged. I don't know who had it or if it still exists.

Badger Mfg. likely wasn't a Ford supplier, but Solar brand lamps were found on other early cars.\

Most of these were used on big Brass Era cars, not Fords.

Re: SOLAR Brass Headlights
What model are these ;lights? The model should be on the thumb screw on the door. I have a Model 10 Buick that needs a good set of lights if you want to sell them. PM me at imnuts4fords at comcast.net
