LED solar lights may be the most energy efficient outdoor lights on the market. Using the sun to power themselves and illuminating a wide area with energy efficient LED chips, these lights are the most cost-effective outdoor lighting solution. When it comes to adopting outdoor renewable energy lights, there are some factors to consider in their installation in order to optimize their performance. Charging, placement and how to install them will determine how strong of an investment these lights were for you.

Charge Solar Lights First

Manufacturers fail to mention this on the manuals or online, but your solar lights will not be charged or ready to be used initially. The solar panel would have been in a dark box for some time and would not have received any sunlight exposure. So, your light will not be a simple quick installation and ready to go. The solar panel will need to be exposed to sunlight for a long period of time in order to start up. Like a new phone, the solar lights will need to be charged immediately in order to begin to work at a later time. It is recommended to actually expose the panels to an extended amount of light such as 12 hours, even if the charging time is normally 8. In order to make sure the light is fully charged and ready to go.

Solar Light Placement

When it comes to solar lights placement is one of the most important factors. Outdoor solar spotlights placement will be divided into two categories functionality and practicality. Functional placement is regarding the solar panels ability to get sunlight. In similar fashion to outdoor security lights, outdoor solar light’s placement will determine their effectiveness. The solar panels need to be in an area and positioned so that they can obtain enough sunlight during the day to power the lights for the whole night.

Practical placement is more related to your general outdoor path or spotlights. The lights shouldn't be obstructive but the illumination needs to be effective. Depending on what you’re lighting. If the spotlights are aesthetic and also guiding a pathway, you’ll need multiple lights relatively close together but even spaced out. This will create a balanced and clear illumination of the path. If you’re using spotlights to highlight a feature or front of the home, again they need to be evenly spaced out due to their narrow beams but pointed directly at the feature.

How to Install Solar Spotlights?

Outdoor spotlights usually come with stakes that go into the ground. Where the spotlights are going will dictate how simple inserting the light’s stake will be. If the solar light needs to be put into a flower bed or some form of gardening soil, the installation will be much easier. Flower bed’s soil is much softer and easier to work with that regular hard grass soil. If you’re installing the lights following a long garden path through regular hard grass or soil, its going to be much harder work. In order to make it easier for yourself as you will have multiple lights to install, softening the yard/soil is the best start. Water the soil in order to soften it slightly and try sticking the stake in, seeing if it can go as deep as necessary. If the stake still can’t go in, you are going to need a shovel and dig into the soil at every light position.

What is the Most Cost-Effective Solar Light For 2021?

SGLEDs outdoor solar LED lights are the best spotlight garden option for this year! Their design, performance and efficiency are what will allow them to benefit your yard and fit around your needs. Their adjustable design allows them to be more practical in providing your yard with light. Each light has its own individual solar panel, allowing for the charging to be much faster and last longer overall in a group of lights. They provide a 5000K daylight beam throughout the night as long as the light outside is under 150 lux.

Guaranteed Performance

These lights guarantee highly efficient effective yard lighting. This is down to their daylight white beam, D2D sensor in the solar panel and their overall independent design. Each light is independently charged, powered and sensing the changes in the environment. Resulting in a cluster of lights that are working independently but performing in unison. These lights are the ideal garden solar light for the yard, path and outdoor areas.

Yards need consistent efficient lighting and SGLEDS outdoor solar lights outperform all over lights on the current market when it comes to efficiency and return on investment for gardens lights:
