Excellent product and serviceVerified Purchase
Ordered these a while back and only just got round to setting them up. Great product, the USB rechargeable battery is a stroke of genius. Lights look great at night.
Packaged and delivered super fast, very impressed with service. Definitely going to order from Solar Centre again in future. By Paul on Jul 22,2015

Preferred the old versionVerified Purchase
I run a Glamping site and have brought a new set of these lights each year for our tents (probably in excess of 25 sets in total). Unfortunately I found the older version of these lights to be better for us. The charge lasted an awful lot longer, the controller could be placed inside the tent rather than have to go outside to the solar panel to switch off at night, and there was much less chance of rain reaching the battery. These are still the best that I can find in terms of brightness and durability, but it's disappointing that they are not quite as good as before. The first set of these that I brought were still twinkling away most of the night in the deepest winter, these sadly will only manage a couple of hours, and that's if the batteries haven't got wet first and given up. I find the USB charging facility a bit of a gimmick, I wonder how many people actually use it? Surely if they held their charge better, you wouldn't need to charge from mains? Isn't that the point of solar power after all? I still given these a 4 star rating because they are the best I can find. By Diane Prentice on Mar 16,2015

Nice productVerified Purchase
Easy to charge up straight from box via USB - not that they needed long. Easy to install. Even in February daylight they charge enough to last from around 6pm to past midnight. So far so good, looking forward to summer evenings with these. By Richard on Mar 4,2015

These solar lights seem to be so much better than the ones you can buy at DIY stores, they really do charge when it cloudy, but with a bit of sunshine they last amazingly well..

Solar Fairy lights - warm whiteVerified Purchase
The product is advertised as "works in winter", but on receiving the product I read that it needs sunlight. And indeed, after two bright days but without direct sunshine the lights are not coming on in the evening. I am sure customers would appreciate more detailed information on this product.
Also, I was expecting something a lot 'warmer' with the "warm white" but the light from the chain is quite cold. By Claudia on Dec 31,2014

Love these warm white lights, I have them around our tree at the bottom of our garden, I have the 100 leds which give really good coverage, and look fantastic at night. Being able to have the option to charge the lights up with USB on lap top is one of the best features of this product, and makes these lights well worth the money for guaranteed twinkling lights every night, no matter what the weather is like, will be purchasing more for Xmas presents.

Lovely warm white colour,. Only drawback is that they do not charge as fully maybe as I had expected when the weather is bad. I do live in the south west and it is rainy in winter, maybe this makes it worse. HoweVer there is the fail safe of the USB charging, which makes all the difference. A good purchase at a good price.

Was very worried about purchasing solar lights as many friends/relatives who have purchased them before have been disappointed however these are brilliant. The charge lasts for quite a while (I've used one charge up over a couple of evenings) and they are nice and bright. As noted by other reviewers, the fact that the solar panel can be removed is great and the USB charge option is very helpful as well. Will definitely be purchasing other sets and have recommend to others. By Tanya Talbot-Butler on Oct 17,2014

These lights are brilliant ! So much better than the rubbish sold by a well known high street chain.
The USB charging facility is useful but the lights never fail to come on even on the dullest of days.
Service by the Solar Centre is also first rate. I forgot to claim my 10% discount at the time of ordering but one quick email and it was sorted out (thanks Luke).
They even email you with directions telling which way is South (the best direction to position the solar panel) from your postcode .
A top quality product and first class service . What more could you ask!

Excellent service and lights. Packaging and unit top quality. Just one bit of advice ... DO go straight to USB charge first, which only takes two hours, and do follow instructions totally.

...suggest the on/off button was instead a rotating dial which when turned indicated when the lights were switched on (so will come on when it gets dark), when they were switched off (won't come on when it gets dark) and the option to switch on the lights (override the light sensor) for early evening illumination - otherwise great!

Great ProductVerified Purchase
Web site was easy to use and informative. Lights easy to put up and solar panel nice and neat with a really useful wall mounting option. I was disappointed at first as I couldn't get them to work. They seemed to charge OK from my computer but wouldn't turn on. However, I rang customer services and they said they had been aware of the issue & gave me a simply way of kick starting them. All is now fine and they are charging in the sun and shining in the dark! The only criticism is they should add the kick start to the standard instructions, just in case. I shall be ordering more lights to cover the rest of the garden. By Sarah R on Mar 13,2014

Fantastic having pushed them to their UK limits inVerified Purchase
Great service and delivery. I'm in London, uk and sited these in our back garden, one on south facing and one on a fairly north facing aspect but still with some indirect light. We wall-charged the units as instructed when first received and they've worked extremely well, though after a week of grim january uk weather (permanently wet with little to no direct light) we have noticed they are dimmer when they come on at night, than they were the first couple of nights - so perhaps need the odd top-up at the mains to negotiate the poorest periods of the year. Overall i'm still impressed and these will draw a lot of interest from friends and family as well as adding a great new dimension to our garden. they will make a perfect gift too!

Middle East MagicVerified Purchase
I bought these lights knowing that they would get a lot more sun than they are designed to work in in the UK. We live in the UAE and receive 364 days of sunshine a year. Although I take them down in the middle of summer as the temperature reaches 52 degrees C sometimes, and nothing lasts outside in that heat for long. These lights endure being taken up and down time and time again and they still work beautifully after a few years of this treatment. I am so happy with them, I have bought them as gifts for friends and family. By Jude on Dec 26,2013
