I'm looking for something more powerful than those pale useless self-solar single lights, such are sold at Home Depot.
I'm looking for functionality, not a bargain.

Does anyone know of any reasonably priced solar powered landscape lighting that DOES NOT use batteries?

I've heard of lights that use capacitors but have only found them in paver type applications. I am looking for traditional "stake" lighting.


no, thats how solar works you use the sun to charge batt, then use the power at night, I have a set of 12 that i got thru Harbor freight 3 yrs ago there still working,
they were around $20

In terms of light out-put,how do solar landscape lights compare to low voltage lights?
Mighty Sun - The Mother of Energy Source

I have been looking at Malibu Solar landscape lights and notice that they post no information as to how much light they put out. They have some solar lights that have two LEDs and some with three LEDs. How do these compare with the standard 4 watt low voltage lights?


About the same but more importantly for solar non-wired lights, what is the average run time? Some cheap ones will last only 4 hours while others can make it all night.

solar landscape light malibu.How to charge the battery?

Bought new Malibu Landscaping Solar lights. The problem is it is rainy for the past two days and dark and since I have bought them they never charged fully. I bought them two days ago.

So If I want to charge my Malibu Solar batteries with a Charger, what should I care about and how long to charge thnx


Im not sure I would go through the trouble plus I don't know if they are made to be put in a recharger. You can bring them in the house under the light and they should recharge. This is going to happen on many cloudy days too. Welcome to solar lighting.

Do solar powered landscape lighting systems work well?



We tried them along a walkway and were very disappointed. The light they produced was very dim at best. We soon replaced them with low voltage wired lights. We now use the solar lights on a boat dock and still consider them ineffective.

Good luck with your lighting project.

  • Solar Road Panels On U.S. Highways May Fulfill Country#39;s Power ...

    Solar powered products are made all the time; from phones to boats, just about anything can run on solar energy. However, roads which are treated to sunlight all through the days have never been used to harvest solar energy and that is quite surprising.

    Whatever the difficulties had been in harvesting solar energy from roads, Solar Roadways have finally won a grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to do just that. The $100,000 grant would be used to make Solar Road Panels which are basically panels of solar cells and glass that would catch the rays of the sun throughout sunny days.

    The Solar Road Panels would be used on roads and parking lots instead of the petroleum-based asphalt that is generally being used currently. The panels would also contain LEDs that light up the path and even give warnings about roadblocks and wildlife ahead of drivers. Although the Solar Panels are just in the prototype stage, designer Scott Brusaw believes that layering the entire U.S. interstate highway system with the panels would garner enough energy to sustain the country.

    After all the effort and expense you put into your yard, it’s natural you want it to look it’s best—day and night. One option that can really help show your yard at its best is solar landscape lighting. It’s cost effective, easy to install, virtually maintenance free, and available in plain old ‘white’ light or bright colors to accent your home and landscaping. Solar landscape lights need four basic components to function:

    A rechargeable battery to store the power generated by the sun’s energy A small photovoltaic cell or solar array that captures sunlight during the day and converts it into electrical energy. The solar array is usually built right into the light standard; however, some light designs do have separate solar arrays connected by a thin wire allowing the light to be located in a shady area while the solar array itself is positioned in a bright,...
