I've been turning Bunnings Owl solar lights into Meshcore repeaters. (Check the reviews for details)
The best way to provide a power switch seems to be to replace the waterproof switch thats included on the standard charging board.
This is a simple board to replace the PCB, it has the same screw layout so you can use it to position your own switch in the correct place to make use of the waterproof button.
Clip the power to the LEDs off as close to the charge controller as possible, you don't need them. Connect a single cell 18650 BMS directly to the battery power terminals, leave the existing charging board connected as it is. Connect the output of the BMS to the mesh board of your choice, via a latching switch on the ground line.
The clipped off corner goes in the bottom left of the case and allows you to route cables to the button.
