Just right Verified Purchase
I ordered one light to shine on a dark corner of the house where there is a step. It's much lighter than I expected for a solar light , not much dimmer than a wired electric light. By Stan Mason on Jan 25,2022

Made up with them as it saved alot of drilling and wiring , got the 5m extension leads also so i could put the panels out of view.
Had a lot of comments about how they look and even more so when i tell people they are solar. By Paul on Dec 26,2021

Lights up my house perfectly Verified Purchase
Recently bought two of these up and down led lights. After charging them up for 3-5 days, one of the lights was not working so I contacted the solar centre who replaced the light.
These lights are reasonably placed outside the front of a south front facing house.
These lights are brilliant. Even in the winter with not as much sun, I am getting at least 5-6 hours of light in the evening.
Note - with no sun light and cloud all day, these do not work. By Jon Pardy on Nov 25,2021

Excellent light very attractive and enhances my garden. Solar panel stopped working on one light after two weeks and replacement panel did not work. Neither did second replacement panel. Complete new light sent which now works fine. Would have liked to purchase a solar panel on its own for the old light but not possible. Still awaiting refund of postage of the returned broken panels.

Love these lightsVerified Purchase
My wife and I were looking for some subtle lighting for our decking we'd just installed. We purchased four of them and they are a great maintenance free addition.
The cabling is discreet, if a little short - would have liked another metre, however this doesn't detract from the sleek design and simple installation the lights offer.
They give all of the light we'll ever need (although we've only seen them charged during a summer day)
All in all we would very much recommend these lights. By Jez on Jul 12,2020

My Chester Up & Down light looks so smart and was really easy to install. It has been much admired by my friends & neighbours. I've had a slight problem with it which meant I had to contact Kayleigh on the chat line. My problem has been easily sorted. Kayleigh was really helpful. It's so good to know that if there is a problem it will be quickly sorted by contacting the chat line.

Perfect Chester lightVerified Purchase
The Chester up and down lights are amazing, not only the stunning stainless steel looks,but the amount of light they emit, easily on a par with similar design electric wires lights .
I have 2 mounted on a fence the clear wire is great as it is not noticeable, I bought the extension cable which gives extra flexibility of where to put the solar panel.
These lights are perfect for highlighting statement plants lighting from above.
My only complaint they now do these in anthracite and I want these too.
Solar centre I can rely on you for stunning lights and super fast delivery , I have a good collection of your lights now.

Good product and value for moneyVerified Purchase
Good quality product and provides decent light which is also attractive from a distance. The only small downside I found is it doesn't maintain light during the darkest of winter months, probably getting a few hours at best from when it gets dark before 5pm. The 4 I have are on top of a block of flats with good access to light and I did experiment with different angles but it didn't make much different to the light collected. Providing good light throughout the evening by early March onwards. By Andy Bown on Mar 6,2020

Bought these as getting electric power to summer house is difficult. The solar powered lights (x2) are very elegant in design and fulfill the need for nighttime lighting.

Bought 2 of these for a patio area remote from the house with no mains power for a bit of feature background lighting. They were easy to install with limited DIY capabilities.
Working very well and provide decent all night illumination on power save setting. The solar panel may be obtrusive unless it can be sited appropriately to get decent sunlight without being on show; the extension lead option is therefore worth considering when planning. All in all I'm very pleased. By Chris B on Apr 1,2019

Excellent Chester solar lightVerified Purchase
I was a bit sceptical about buying a more expensive solar light as all solar lights I've had have been a bit disappointing - but to be fair, they've been a bit cheap. However, we couldn't get electric wiring to the location so had to plumb for solar lighting. The light is located on an east facing wall, under a canopy so the separate solar panel was exactly what we needed (bought the extension wire too). It hasn't disappointed and stays on for hours on an evening (it's March atm). Looking to buy decking lights next as am impressed with the quality of the products from the Solar Centre. Just hope I still think the same in a few years. By Gail on Mar 28,2019

Ordered 2 of these up & down lights, delivery was within two days, unfortunately one only half lit, I sent a picture of the light by email explaining, and a replacement was delivered next working day.
I have one on my front porch and the other at the end of the garden lighting the shed,
I am pleasantly surprised at the amount of light they give .
They took minutes to install and look stylish,
we are in June now, so quite a bit of sunshine, the lights stay on from dusk till dawn.

"functional and decorative, as useful as a mains vVerified Purchase
Although not as warm as described or shown, (it's more like bright, soft moonlight). Nevertheless these are functional and decorative, simple clean design with the operative word being functional. They actually light up quite a wide area fairly well as opposed to past solars I've bought which just produce a rather sad little pool of light.
The panel and wiring are also of good robust quality. (The Solar Centre is always pretty reliable in that respect).
And good enough to order a second one. Now we have the deck by our kitchen properly illuminated for the first time in 18 years, (helped by white soffits which bounce the up-light downwards).
I was even doing a crossword at 11 pm and could see really well. What a revelation....must be these new, brighter leds..
At last a solar light that is actually as useful as a mains version.
Now looking around to see where I could put another one...
I do have to say the items did arrive with a crushed box, but no serious damage to the lights in my case. So maybe SC need to have a word with their courier as I see that's a fairly a common complaint.. By Martin H on Jun 4,2018

COMMENTS: I have ordered several items from the Solar Centre over the last week,all of which were delivered in a timely manner but unfortunately one of the items arrived with transit damage.
The items were received at 1:20 and I immediately emailed customer services to request a replacement; I received an email back from Luke requesting that I send an image of the damage with a view to them sending a replacement. I sent the required image and by 2:00 I had confirmation that a replacement lamp would be despatched the folllowing day.
40 minutes from 1st contact to resolution is incredible customer service and the Solar Centre should be proud of this, the only downside is that I am only able
to give a maximum of 5 stars!
I would certainly recommend the Solar Centre for the quality of thier products, delivery times and thier second to none customer service!
Thank you!
