Kensington solar lightVerified Purchase
This is our second purchase of these lights as we needed more. They're sturdily made and provide light from dusk till dawn year round in our experience.
We mainly use them decoratively along the drive fence but relocate them to light up steps or gateways if we're having a party in the garden.
I fully recommend this product but do wait until they're on offer as they are more expensive than other options.
Having said that, our first purchase four years ago are still going strong and have been out permanently. By Simon L on Apr 29,2019

We always have lightVerified Purchase
We now have four of these lights and they first two have been on our front drive pillars for two years. The one has a light gone but still gives out light.
These lights are good value as they work in winter.
Make sure no plants/trees block the solar panel and they will always charge. Perfect if you live in the country with no street lights. I'd buy twenty of these if the price was a little cheaper.

Modern Wall LightsVerified Purchase
I have three of these modern lights on the walls surrounding my patio. I have been purchasing them for a few years from The Solar Centre as I leave them on constantly (even throughout the winter months) therefore I am very impressed expecially this year after such a terrible winter and they usually last for a couple of years. The Solar Centre are brilliant as they send the goods out usually same day as ordering and even though I hadn't paid for next day delivery THEY WERE DELIVERED THE NEXT DAY!! AND I RECEIVED A BRILLIANT DISCOUNT!! By ANN on Jun 7,2018

NeatVerified Purchase
This is the second such unit we have bought, the first lasted 2 years then gave up on itself but for the price, it is easier to just buy a new one. In terms of performance, can't fault the unit. Worked in all weathers and temperatures even in the darkest days of winter. We use it to illuminate the house name on the gate post and it is ideal for the dark country lane we live in giving excellent lumens and a nice flood of light on the sign and on the floor to help guide those on foot.

KENSINGTON SOLAR WALL LIGHTSVerified Purchase
I have been purchasing three of these stylish lights for the walls around my patio for a few years. They have been left on the walls over winter and still work fine even though there is not much sunshine. When they stop working after a couple of years of continuous use, I think maybe caused by rainwater ingress, I re-order but I was very disappointed last year, I think I left it too late to re-order as they were 'out of stock' so I was so pleased when I checked the website in January and found they were back in stock and, a bonus, they were reduced by £10 each. This third order was delivered promptly and worked straight out of the box!! I have put a thin strip of self adhesive foam to top of the back of the lights to hopefully avoid rain ingress and have diarised to switch them off and bring them into the garage over winter in future. Please do NOT discontinue these lights as they are perfect for my needs. Would thoroughly recommend this website. Thank you. By Ann Wilkes on Feb 4,2018

Brilliant (literally!)Verified Purchase
Strange as it might seem, I purchased the Kensington Solar Wall Light as a Christmas gift for my husband. I wrapped it up and wrote a clue on the label, "this has absolutely nothing to do with Pink Floyd" (get it?!) My husband was really pleased with his gift, charged it for a few days as instructed and finally installed it on our low garden wall. Tonight he switched it on and guess what? It works! A really brilliant light, which hopefully will prevent us accidentally reversing into the wall in the car.
An excellent website and we particularly liked the online instructions, including how to remove the light from the packaging!
Will definitely recommend. Thank you. By Liz Prior on Jan 16,2018

Kensington Solar Wall LightVerified Purchase
Website clear and easy to navigate. Prompt delivery of lights, which were well packaged. Followed instructions and left them to charge outside for several days before turning on. As they were a gift, will have to check on performance when mounted, but looked really nice.
The only downside I can see is that they seem to just slide onto to fixings and so could be easily removed. This may be an issue when used in front garden, but would be ok for rear garden use. A more secure way to fix the light to the wall would be great. By Phil Long on Dec 29,2017

I have 6 of these now, and as solar lights go I'd say that are the best for light output and design.. You'll get a good 8 hours of useful light from these and maybe a little more in summer direct light. I had 4 of them which I bought last year and they work fine throughout winter and the cold nights... I've not come across anything better thus far, so I don't think you'll be too disappointed. With the offer now on, I bought another two...

Ideal for small dark corners.Verified Purchase
I have only had the light up and running for 48 hours but I am 100% happy with the outcome as I purchased this item to give light to an otherwise dark corner in my front garden outside the door. If it keeps up the performance in the winter months of which it claims then I would happily give it 5 stars but until I see the evidence of this later in the year I can only give it 4 stars. Beautiful designed light. Do not know how long the batteries last. The only thing I dislike about reviews is that you are asked to do one after about a week in which case reviewing after such a short period you can not judge the product fairly.

Could be greenerVerified Purchase
I have just bought another one of these.The first failed after 2 winters. 2 of the leds would not light. I replaced the batteries. No change.
As I had dismantled the light to change the batteries I could see it was easy to replace the whole strip of leds.
Unfortunately I was told by customer service that I could not buy a strip of leds to repair my light. As I had to buy another light this does bring the companies "green philosophy"into question.
If they would sell me a strip of leds I could make use of the extra light.
Whilst they work the lights are fine. I wonder what I would be saying if I did not do this review until 2 years have elapsed!! By Leslie Burgess on Jan 25,2016
