The wide 270° angle detection ensures comprehensive coverage, while the intelligent sensor modes – including full brightness, dimmed brightness, and motion activated – allow you to customise the lighting to suit your needs.
Designed with outdoor use in mind, this set of four lights boasts an IP65 waterproof rating, making them robust enough to withstand typical UK weather conditions. Powered entirely by solar energy, they eliminate the need for batteries or external power sources, offering a convenient and environmentally friendly solution. The adjustable light output delivers up to 1000 lumens, providing bright and clear visibility when required.
Installation is straightforward; these lights are designed for wall mounting, utilising an E27 bulb base.
