Good Solar garden light

Ldknight on 15/12/2008 - 11:47

Hi guys,

We're moving to a new place, with a small back garden, and want some solar garden light to lit it up a bit at night. I've looked around for a good solar garden light, but they're so varies, and I can't work out which ones are good.

I remember seeing K-Mart having 20$ for 10 light, which is pretty good, but they look a bit dodgy (plastic and flimsy a bit)
Then there are some from crazy sales (http://www.crazysales.com.au/index.php?productID=896), 12 for 50$ + 11.25$ delivery.
And then there are 6 for 25$ from bunning warehouse, which is my current prefered choice. To confuse the matter further, there are a lot of different solar light from bunning.

If any have any previous experience with them, or know of a good deals somewhere, please let us know.

Thank you very much, and Merry Christmas.

    the Kmart ones are ok. They come with AAA batteries - marked 600Mah, but with my recharger - i found they only came to around 300mah (As I have the recharger I do cycle the batteries first before using - which is something you probably wont/cant do). The lights stay on most of the night if they get good sun, and when on sale at $20 its only $2 a light. They are "flimsy" but thats no big deal, they dont have to support any weight, they just stay in the garden. Hope that helps

    Thanks, ozpete. I probably only need the light to stay on till mid-night. I am bit worried about the AAA batteries though, as it can be a bit expensive to replace, especially when they are out with the element as these would. But 2$ each is … quite a bargain. WIll have to look at them again in case the sales has gone
    Cheers

    Trying to revive this old thread. Some things might have changed…
    Looking for suggestions for good solar garden lights. Bought many: singles, fairy lights, big, small… From Bunnings, KMart, BigW, Target, Masters…. None of them seem to last a year. Some didn't even work since Day 1!
    Looking forward to some sharing. Thanks!
