Start collecting old solar calculators and salvage the solar cells. by soldering them together it is possible to build a collector with enough power to light a small light such as a diode or mini flashlight.

Sorry. Your question is too vague. A lamp is for lighting a space. So I guess you want to use the sunlight to light a space (that is not near a window?).
Place a collector on the roof where it will always be in the sun. A simple cheap collector is a vertical tubular mirror. Use mirrors to reflect the light into the desired space. Use a frosted glass distributor in the space to spread the light evenly.
Enjoy the sunshine!

probably what the other guy said would be the lowest cost, otherwise you could buy a solar panel, hook it up to a battery to store power, and at night time hook that up to a light.

"photograph voltaic" shows that the potential source comes from the sunlight. the clarification why "photograph voltaic calculators" functionality indoors is they are able to turning the gentle interior the room into usable potential. yet, even a photograph voltaic calculator demands an sufficient gentle source; many times presented by the lighting fixtures in a room that are powered by classic gentle components. Powering a lamp demands far greater potential than powering an consumer-friendly calculator. you have 2 photograph voltaic structures accessible to you for indoor gentle using at present's accessible technologies. the 1st is to open the residing house windows to apply passive photograph voltaic potential. of course, this permits you to have greater examining time interior the summertime and much less interior the wintry climate. the different demands a device to capture photograph voltaic potential, harness it right into a device, and convert it into electrical energy to run your lamp. many times, that's finished by some variety of a photograph voltaic panel potential device using at present's technologies. photograph voltaic panel potential structures are heavily accessible yet, are somewhat greater in touch and expensive than basically procuring home equipment and plugging them in.
