Best Rated Solar Lawn Lights

Solar lights, unlike other electrical lights, do not require any power source to operate. They work with the Sun’s power and can provide the same lightning illumination as you can get with other sources.

There is a huge diversity of solar lawn lights that you can choose from for your house. All the more, a major benefit of these solar lights is that you can install them at places where there is limited accessibility of electricity. And not to mention the savings with this kind of addition will bring to your house income.

The Beauty of Solar Lights

Solar Lights like any other kind of lightning can be manufactured into different forms and styles. All the more, these kinds of lights are even more accessible and creative as they have more mobility than the electrical lightning.

Solar lawn lights need the sun to work at night. So, when you are installing these lights make sure that they get enough exposure to the sun. They need to be charged before you can use them in the night hours.

Placing these solar lights along the pathway in your lawn or even lightning up the patio with them will certainly make it look more extravagant and beautiful. The origami solar lights or lights made with laces or even with glass crystals add a whole new look to your lawn.

Here are five different types of Solar Lawn Lights

MEIKEE Spot Lights:

The 270° rotateable spotlights produce a cosy yellow light to illuminate the lawn. The extended light spike will make sure that the spotlights are affixed either in the ground or in the walls. Producing 150 lumens of light, these spotlights offer good heat dissipation. Even better, the solar panel can be placed at a different location than the lights. MEIKEE has provided a 4000mAh capacity solar panel having lithium-ion rechargeable batteries to help power up the lights.

   Pros

• You can use these lights in a number of places all around the lawn and make sure it is lightened up.
• Automatic on and off function saves the solar-charged batteries from over-draining.
• Fix it in any way you want. Either screw it to the walls or affix it inside the ground with the spike.

   Cons

• There have been some complaints about the battery running out before time.
• The size of the lights does not fit the description. The size is too small to use in a big lawn.

  Best Review From Customers

“Wonderful, the spotlights are very powerful! Brilliant to light the back of our garden. The lights stay on usually from dusk to about midnight”

Worst Customer Review

“Easy to put together but its not fit for purpose and waste of money as after the first couple of days the lights come on dim for about an hour and then switch off”

FLOWood Solar Lamps for Outdoor Gardens

These lamps come without wires. The best thing is that the solar panel is affixed inside the lamp only. You will get 8 lamps in one package and they can be installed anywhere on the ground in your lawn. The stainless steel built light frames are corrosion resistant and are also waterproof.

   Cons

• The battery backup is also not appropriate as it may stop lightning for a long number of hours after a few weeks.

  Best Review From Customers

  Best Review From Customers

“At night it casts beautiful patterns on our deck. During the day the lantern is a lovely decoration. I was slightly concerned that the light would need lots of sunshine to be effective, but it still manages to produce an impressive amount of light even on a cloudy day”

Worst Customer Review

“Loved this when I got it. Been using inside as so nice. Only had on a few times & no longer working. Disappointing”

Worst Customer Review

To Summarise:

Even though the solar lawn lights are built to provide an amazing quality of lightning and decoration to the lawn, you need to make sure that these lights are installed in the right place. Since they are powered by the sun, their placement and exposure to sunlight for a long number of hours is essential for a good backup.
