Where To Buy Solar Lights



Outdoor solar lights are easy to install and virtually maintenance free. Best of all, using them won't increase your electric bill. Popular home uses for outdoor solar lighting include pathway light sets, wall-mounted lamps, freestanding lamp posts, and security lights.




where to buy solar lights



Outdoor solar lighting systems use solar cells, which convert sunlight into electricity. The electricity is stored in batteries for use at night. Manufacturers most commonly use nickel cadmium, sealed lead acid, and lead acid batteries.


Outdoor solar lighting systems work well in most areas of the United States. However, it is important to consider geographic and site-specific variables when choosing a product. A solar lighting system will work well only as long as the solar cells receive the manufacturer's recommended hours of sunlight.


Some solar lighting systems are self-contained units: You only need to place the lights in a sunny location. Others have the lights separate from a solar cell panel, in which case only the panel needs to be placed in a sunny location. Units vary in size from small, glowing pathway markers to pole-mounted patio and high-beam security lights.


Nearly every day, we receive questions about solar lights from people all over the world. At Solar Us Shop, we love solar powered lights for their ability to provide bright and functional lighting solutions, all with the free, sustainable energy of the sun.


Yes, most solar lights can get wet. Long-lasting designs are typically able to handle ordinary outdoor rainfall. If your solar light has IP65 waterproofing, it will be resistant to rain as well as damaging dirt particles in the air.


Solar lights work best under direct sunlight, but can also be charged at a less efficient rate with indirect light. Some solar lights may also be able to supplement their batteries with a charge via USB or another alternate power source.


Some solar lights are delivered with a full battery and work instantly out of the box. If the battery is empty, solar lights typically take between 4 and 10 hours of sunlight to fully charge. If they are placed in an area with full exposure, lights installed in the morning will most likely work that night.


As maintenance-free devices, it is okay to leave solar lights on all of the time. Most smart solar lights automatically toggle on and off at sundown and sunrise without any manual operation. To maximize the lifespan of your solar lights, you may want to bring them inside or turn them off when not in use for long periods of time.


In most daily use scenarios, you do not have to physically turn off solar lights at night. Instead, photocell light sensors will activate solar lights when it is dark and automatically shut them off in the morning. For some products, controls can be set to turn your solar lights on and off at specific times each day.


Yes, many solar lights have multiple brightness levels to optimize your outdoor space. High-powered devices like solar security lights can easily match the brightness levels of any existing property lighting system.


Yes, most well-manufactured solar lights can be left out in the rain and maintain their functionality. Although some units are not completely waterproof, most sealed solar lights with a weatherproof resting of IP65 can withstand extended rainy conditions.


Yes, many outdoor solar lights accept rechargeable AA or AAA batteries to power lanterns or property lights. Not all solar lights accept normal batteries, but many can be charged with another electricity source of some kind.


Solar lights turn on at night after detecting the absence of sunlight with a built-in photocell sensor. Lights are activated at sundown and will deactivate in the morning if there is any battery life still remaining.


To install solar lights in hard ground, you will need to hammer in foundation stakes before placing the lights around your yard. Most landscape solar lights include an installation mount and stake for easy set-up and transferring.


Solar lights typically last for between 6 and 10 hours each night and operate for 2 to 5 years. By bringing your solar lights inside during the winter, it is possible to extend their expected lifespan.


Yes, you can leave solar lights out in the winter and there are many solar holiday lights specifically designed for seasonal use. Occasionally, people find that solar lights are not worth it in the winter due to limited sunlight hours and heavy weather conditions. In these instances, solar lights can be brought inside until spring to keep them working at their best.


Yes, solar lights can still be charged indoors with direct sunlight through a window. For some products, it also may be possible to charge solar lights by plugging them into a power source with an included adapter.


Sometimes, too much dust and debris build-up may need to be cleaned in order to revive a solar light. If your light does not seem to be charging even after cleaning the panel, test the light with regular batteries or another power source if possible.


Yes, in most cases solar lights are worth the money when operating on completely free electricity. Ordinary lights consume utility electricity every second that they are running, which can quickly add up to annual amounts far beyond the initial cost of a high-quality solar light.


Solar lights require ample sunlight to charge, usually six to eight hours for a full charge. Once charged, the battery will power the light for three to eight hours, depending on whether the light runs continuously or turns on only when it detects motion. Dusk-to-dawn solar lights require large-capacity batteries. They also usually have oversize solar panels, which enable them to draw and store as much solar energy as possible during the day so they can remain on all night long.


A majority of options on the market have LED (light-emitting diode) lights, which tend to hold a longer and brighter charge than incandescent or fluorescent bulbs. You can typically find the fully charged runtime among the specs provided by the manufacturer.


The light produced by a solar path lighting system differs depending on the product. Both the brightness and the color temperature can be different between products, and some solar path lights have multiple brightness and color temperature levels, allowing the user to choose the ideal setting.


Light color temperature refers to the color the light produces and is measured on a Kelvin (K) scale. It ranges between 3,000K (warm white) and 6,500K (daylight). Solar-powered sets typically emit a soft white or amber-colored light, though colored lights in hues like red, green, and blue are another playful option to consider. Of the available options, amber lights tend to use less energy and last longer than their white-light counterparts.


The average solar path light delivers an effect similar to that of a string of fairy lights, although stronger options are also available. Consider installing several lights in a more tightly packed formation when using low-lumen lights to provide a soft glow along the pathway. Alternatively, brighter lights can be spaced further apart for a more dramatic illumination effect.


Perhaps the most significant factor to consider is the quality of the materials used in making the lights, because solar path lights will be exposed to the elements for weeks or months. Over time, plastic light housing is likely to crack, while metal housing typically lasts longer. Bear in mind that products that feature UV protective coatings will be less likely to bleach in the sun over time. Shoppers should also take care to ensure any exposed wires on the lights are robust enough to resist nibbling from garden critters.


I bought the lights at a grocery store for $2 each and have a large collection of jars that I sorted through until I found the right ones. I found my lights at the Real Canadian Superstore but I have also seen them at Target, WalMart and Dollar stores as well. The best time to find them is when the seasonal outdoor products are stocked. You can also find some here and here.
