I am thinking of mounting the lights vertically to shine onto a step, the mounting area will be in direct sunshine for sometime. Can they be mounted vertically and will they still be waterproof ?

What is the light output of this unit in lumens?

Does powersave mode actually dim the leds, as I can't see any variation in the setting on mine
Asked by Lloyd Fifield on 22 Apr 2021
It will run them at a lower level to run longer. If they are on the right setting then the mode would be activated.
Could these be affixed to a low brick wall? I am looking lights to put on two low walls which border the entrance to my driveway and which I park my car between...hope that makes sense! thanks.
Asked by JO HEMMINGS on 21 Mar 2021
No, as the panel is integrated and on top, I would not recommend this. They will need to have direct access to the sun.

The lights are held together via the screws in the corner, they do not need to be secured to the surface as they are designed to fit in between bricks.
I live in Scotland and have found solar lights work brilliant in the Summer as we get 16 hours of daylight. In the winter we only get 9 hours so they normally don't work for me. Do these charge in low light and how long for a full charge?

Our lights are designed to work all year round in the UK weather conditions, run time/ brightness will be reduced.
Does the lights switch on at night and off in the morning by itself, and have to set on/off setting times? can I place it on loose stones in the front garden?
