Solar Circuit (Advanced)

edited May 2013 in General

I wonder if someone can help me, I want to ramp up the Simple Solar Circuit using the solar panel as a darkness detector.

what I was hoping to do was to take a 12v 10w solar panel (Caravan battery charging type) using this panel I wanted to charge 2 sets of 7.2v battery packs 6x AA then use those packs to power 2 camping style lamps that use TTS-3WCREE bulbs (3.5v to 9v) I want the lamps to turn on after sunset automaticly. the lamps need to be in 2 different locations so I guess the circuit needs to be split from the solar panel then each lamp would need its own light detecting circuit

 

I wonder if someone can help me with a circuit blueprint, I'm new too electronics but I can read the blueprints in the style used here
