Customer service Verified Purchase
Hi, after posting a review earlier today, negative review I suppose. Customer service have been in touch to say replacement has been dispatched to my home address. I've got to say this is outstanding customer service I had no idea light was under warranty and company were under no obligation to make me aware. This is very much appreciated and clearly I will amend previous rating. I will continue to purchase from solar centre in the future, if that there is no doubt.

I have now bought two of these spot lights to light up individual tress in the garden.
They both work superbly,with a lovely light and spread and the light lasts well into the wee small hours.
I had the first one for over a year and still works brilliantly,more so in the summer than winter,but only to be expected.
Overall well pleased with these and have recommended to family and friends. By Brian McGhee on Apr 29,2021

These spotlights are worth every penny,
Well constructed using quality materials and the solar panel is big enough to ensure it stays on all through the night even in the shorter days of Winter.
Why would you buy mains wired lights when these do such a great job for less with hassle.too.

A good strong spotlight and easy to set up. I wanted to uplight three Silver birch trees so bought one as an experiment to assess it. It does that but it's a cold white light and I was looking for a warmer atmosphere so I'll resite it somewhere else as a security light and keep looking for a warmer solar spot.

We have a large garden and they are just what we needed to replace the old hardwired lights, many of which I had cut through as I worked!
I am particularly impressed with the fact that although a couple don't receive much direct sunlight they still shine through at night.

Getting betterVerified Purchase
When I first installed these (and they aren't the first Helios Solar Spotlights I've bought) I was a little disappointed with one of them not charging well - I think that a nut was loose which meant the P/v panel wasn't at a great angle, albeit in direct sun a fair length of the afternoon/evening. That said they seem to have come into their own and are now lighting the garden features very nicely. They are a little large in dimensions, so a little unattractive in daytime, but come night time they really work well now. It's a case of you get what you pay for... at twenty pounds each it takes a lot of money to get a full lighting set-up in the garden. By Philip on Aug 3,2016

Great quality and solid feel, but needed a spotlight to face West and unfortunately the solar panel will only tilt up and down in the same plane as the Spot (they do not swivel independently). The best site for the solar panel is to face South and as the sunlight available in the site is low, we need all we can get! Solar Centre were very halpful and we have exchanged for the twin Selene Unit with a seperate wired Solar Panel (a wire between each and the solar Unit) - will buy again from this site.

Agree with all other reviews on build quality. Things that stand out for me: on/off switch - we use the light to illuminate our steps to the front door when we have friends round who might not be used to them. The light isn't in the best place for charging but with it off most of the time its fine when we need it. You can replace the rechargeable batteries: they will slowly reduce efficiency so to have the ability to replace them makes this light a winner for me. By Bob Vine on Apr 4,2015

I now have six of these lights and they are so much better than the lower cost multi-buy units generally available, better construction and much brighter light when fully charged. My only slightly negative comment would be that the latest model does not come with the spike extension (included with earlier units). This enables the unit to work better in flower beds, the current small spike means the light is more likely to be obstructed by foliage. Please provide the extended spike. By Mike Rice on Mar 18,2015

It works! Even in the winter gloom. To be honest, I thought it would give more light output, but maybe I was expecting too much. I will have to buy more lights to illuminate one particular feature.

I cemented the lights using the ground spikes on top of a wall. The recent storm sadly snapped one off just where the spike joins the light.The other one is still OK. By stuart crookshank on Dec 8,2013

The Helios Solar Light is an all metal affair save for a Plastic Ground Spike. It also comes with a metal wall plate. I purchased two Helios Spots and secured them with the Metal Plates High up on the Back Wall of our Swimming Pool (8 x 4 metres). In this South Facing Setting and from their high position on the back wall(3 metres above water Level) the soft illumination from the lamps creates a very pleasing effect on the eye. Prior to the arrival of my order I had been contemplating employing an electrician to install mains lighting around the Pool. Howeverwith the installation of the Helios Spots that idea has been quickly shelved and kicked into touch. I am more than satisfied with the Helios Spots and at this time of the year here in Andulucia both Spots are lasting the whole period of time from Dusk to Dawn approximately 11 hours. I would Highly recommend this product. By Locheil on Oct 16,2012

I have had the Helios Solar Spotlight now for two weeks now and can confirm what others on here have said about the product. It is well built easy to install and to my surprise charges in watery winter sunlight! The product comes with a choice of fittings either a long spike which can be inserted into the ground or as I have used a wall fitting which enables the spotlight to be elevated a highlight a feature. I currently use the spotlight to illuminate a silver birch in the back garden but come the summer I think it will be ideal for late BBQ's. I would thoroughly recommend this product to anyone considering a solar light. By Adrian Dodd on Mar 21,2011

Securely packaged and arrived intact. Appears to be of good build - solid feel. Charged up for 3 days and despite Scottish dull for one of these days light was good and bright. Ideal for paths drives and patios. However I decided on a diferent use having had a few annoyances with local kids coming into garden. I used a small piece of wood and attached the light to a roof support on the inside of the greenhouse. Although not bright enough to illuminate the garden (that's done with two Evo 36 solar security lights with PIR's))it shines out the front of the greenhouse and illuminates about 10 feet out from the door. South facing garden so the sun (when we get it) always gets to the solar panel. Job done. Highly recommended. By Willi C on Mar 16,2011

Good solid solution for lighting a small area. You get the usual plastic spiked post to shove in the ground (which works well enough) but also you get a metal bracket that allows you to mount the light from a wall fence post or anywhere else you can get screws in (and they are included too). For this kind of light where you want good illumination of a smallish area that's a lot more useful. I have mine mounted so it illumates the patio just outside the back door. You can also reverse the solar panel on it's mount to get a better angle - useful if it's mounted pointing down - which is a very nice feature. Battery life and recharge seems to be very good after a 3-day precharge it's been coming on at dusk without any issue for the last couple of weeks and is certainly staying on until well into the early hours (I haven't been up to see if it's still on at dawn though). If anything it's a little sensitive coming on perhaps 10-20 minutes before it really needs to but that's a minor niggle. Being able to switch it off is really useful too for those times when you want it to be dark. All in all it's a nice product that does it's job well and can provide an elegant no-wires solution to lighting dark spaces outside doors for security as well. By Demonlair on Mar 16,2011

The first thing I noticed about the Helios Solar Spot Light was its weight it might be an old fashioned point but the solid weighty build (not heavy!) provides me with a bit of reassurance about its quality. Having previously experienced buying solar products out of the newspapers and feeling conned by their poor flimsy plastic build quality this lights aluminium body ticks all the boxes for me. I've got the light attached to its plastic stake so assembly was idiot proof though one concern I do have is I wonder how many times the light can be detached and re-attached to the stake before the joint wears out as it's just a compression fit. I gave the lights solar panel 2 days to charge the internal battery (3 is recommended) before switching it on and for a spotlight with 4 LED's it gives a cracking light. Mine is positioned approx. 3 metres from a trellis fence and it is illuminated nicely. I can also confirm that it does stay working from dusk to dawn having had an early start one day last week I looked out to see the light on. If I could ask for an improvement in the future it would be that the solar panel has a left to right rotation as well as an up and down movement. So for a solar product I'm sold on it and its nice to know I can have a good light without the electricity bill going up! The light has an optional wall mounting bracket also made of aluminium. By J.

The Helios Solar Spotlight is an ideal product if you are interested in illuminating an area which would otherwise be difficault if electical installation is not your strong point, or maybe the area you want to illuminate is an area where you would not want the wireing to show. Generally, I look for a product that is environmentally friendly, fit for purpose, robust, value for money and EASY TO INSTALL. This all in one solar spot light has all of those things. It is compact (solar panel attached to the light unit), sturdy, very simple to install and provides a good amount of light! It can be wall mounted or pushed in to soil! Best of all, it even charges on the duller days where other products fail to. All in all, this product gives excellent value for money and ticks all the boxes. thepjones 13/03/2011 This spotlight can either be staked into the ground or attached to a wall, which is great for flexibility. It looks modern and smart, and the light given out is great, it currently lights up the path at the side of my house perfectly. Previously I had the light shining onto a corner of the garden which looked great, and come the summer I will probably move it back there so that it can be enjoyed come the warm nights sitting out. I would certainly recommend this spotlight for any garden use. By England 1 on Mar 12,2011
