Which solar light suits which job?

Lighting a path or garden bed

Solar garden spike kits push into the soil and throw a pool of light. Warm white (3000K) suits plants and pavers; RGB kits change colour for parties.

A courtyard or pergola

A solar festoon string hangs bulbs overhead for a cafe feel. Run the panel to where it gets full sun, even if the lights hang in the shade.

A feature or a pool

LED ball and mood lights glow in colour on a lawn or float in a pool. Several in the range also charge from a plug, so they work after a cloudy week.

Security by the side gate

Solar flood lights with a remote light up a driveway or side path without running a cable. Aim the panel north for the most sun.

Getting the most from a solar light

  • Face the panel north and clear of trees, eaves and walls: in Sydney, north gets the most sun all year.
  • Expect shorter run times in winter and after cloudy days. That is the battery, not a fault.
  • Wipe the panel every few weeks. Dust and salt from the coast cut charging.
  • For pools and open garden beds, look for an IP65 rating or higher on the product page.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

Do solar lights work in winter in Sydney?

Yes, but for fewer hours. Shorter days and a lower sun mean less charge, so a light that runs all night in summer may run for part of the evening in winter. Placing the panel in full northern sun helps most.

Do solar lights need an electrician?

No. Solar lights have their own panel and battery, so there is nothing to wire. Push the spike in, hang the string or place the light and it switches on at dusk.
