I've looked on packaging of several models of solar LED lighting, and can't find any kind of information on brightness. How is that determined?

Good question. I bought a small solar powered spot to illuminate my house numbers a few years ago and it was so dim, I had to buy another. Even if they labeled them dim, dimmer and dimmest it would be of some help. RScott

Why is it that something that comes free from the sun costs so much to collect? [www.chinavasion.com ] Patio lights and landscape lights spend all ...

All the ones I see have a tiny collector and a pale single LED light. Are there any that are like real lights? At any price?

if there is i haventfound them and believe me ive tried,

I have some cheap solar powered lights. They each have 1 ni-cad??? battery.
Can I use higher rated batteries as long as they are AA size?
Also if I use higher rated batteries ex 1200 instead of 600....will this help my lights to be brighter for longer? thanks for the help in advance.
thanks aussie

I had one of those lights quit working and I had to break it to get inside and fix the broken wire. It is now my toy that lays on my desk. It has 2 ni batteries in it rated at 600. I replaced them with 2 rated at 2500. They charge great and work great. But the light don't seem any brighter. I did find out with the one I have that when the switch is turned off the batteries will not charge either.

I have a small Solar powered pathway lantern that no longer works,When I looked inside I see there are two batteries in there.Is there a way to get new batteries for these things or should I just toss it? Such a shame to toss it because it is metal and still in good condition but useless unless I could get it to work again.

I can change mine. Mine requires 2 AA rechargable. You have to use rechargables since the solar panel is charging them.

Does anyone know if these are any good in the UK? ie, is there enough bright light in this flippin' country in the middle of December, to power them properly?

Not even contemplating Christmas yet (until at least 20th December), but just need to resolve an argument! My friend wants to get some for her tree outside, but I say it would be a waste of money....

they should work,,
