So how do you pick?<\/p>\n<p>I have always believed that a spot light should be to highlight something, whether it a statue, a building or a tree.\u00a0 However the majority of solar spot lights simply are not powerful enough &#8211; that was until i discovered the 8 LED <a title=\"Solar Garden Spot\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thesolarcentre.co.uk\/pages\/Solar_Spot_Lights.html\" target=\"_blank\">Solar Garden Spot<\/a>.\u00a0 This really is a super powerful solar garden spotlight like none other on the market.<\/p>\n<p>With 8 Bright LED&#8217;s all lined up in a row with a super reflective backing really make this solar light project over a great distance with a good spread of light also.<\/p>\n<p>Now not everyone is like me, some would prefere a more subtle effect from their solar lighting but I don&#8217;t think i am alone in expecting the solar lights to work for 4-6 hours every night even in winter &#8211; in fact more so in winter as it gets dark earlier and not only do you need light for a longer period but it is when you get to show off your garden lighting for every one to see.\u00a0 The <a title=\"Solar Garden Spot\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thesolarcentre.co.uk\/products\/Solar_Garden_Spot-341-7.html\" target=\"_blank\">Solar Garden spot<\/a> is bright and does last 4-6hrs per night even in winter but if you want a slightly less bright light then my second choice would be the <a title=\"Solar Spot\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thesolarcentre.co.uk\/products\/Solar_Spot-342-7.html\" target=\"_blank\">solar spot<\/a> this again is trully a dusk until dawn solar light with amazing performance for its size &#8211; I would use this solar light for shrubbery and small garden sculptures it will light up a good 5 metre area though so still very powerful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are many solar spot lights on the market &#8211; some metal, some plastic, some bright some decorative.
