Wow factor lamps Verified Purchase
On a trip to Rome this year we came across a restaurant that had some beautiful mesh lights outside on the terrace. I immediately wanted the same for when I'm eating spag bol in my back yard and thought finding them would be easy and there'd be a thousand options - but no. Maybe I should have asked the restaurant owner where he bought his. Anyway, after an evening of clicking, image searching and guessing what they might be called I found these on Amazon and ordered a set and these are more impressive than the Roman ones, I think. I've never heard so many comments about outdoor lamps so it's not just my opinion. The shadows made by the mesh is quite hypnotic. That said, here is some feedback: There's no timer or power switch so the lamps burn all night until the sun comes up or the battery dies. My solution was to get the pliers out and fit a simple table lamp On/Off switch. A dimmer might be possible but these are mood lighting rather than reading lights. 10 lamps is not enough and the flex is too short. My solution was to buy another set but offering a 20 lamp version would save some faffing about. The one switch (see above) and Leaf now controls and powers both. The battery from Leaf 2 went into Leaf 1 so they have enough juice. As they use some old school DIN type connecter, maybe some daisy chain solution would be possible? Regarding shipping, delivery was fast outside the UK (there's the post-Brexit postage surcharge of course to make them a little more expensive). They arrived in tact and well packed, the box being adequate for winter storage if needed. In summary, a great purchase to add some charm and a wow factor to your outside space. Hoping for years of pleasure, of course.

Quality lights with a unique look Verified Purchase
We're fortunate to have a street light provide a lot of illumination into our small courtyard garden at night, but there was one problem - our shed blocked the light from getting to our back gate and the approach, so it sat in a dark unwelcoming corner. I've had solar lighting before of varying quality and decided to give these a go as they seem pretty new and uncommon. So first things first, they won't look as good as the reference photo on the website - nothing ever does! But I will say that they do cast a decent amount of light onto their surroundings, which is what I wanted. Too many cheap lights are basically just a tiny bulb visible in the dark, but these, with their gold mesh, defintely have some presence! I went for this design rather than just a regular bulb partly as a talking point, but partly because I thought the lights glowing from within the cage might give off a greater glow than I'm used to, and I think I was right. My one criticism is that maybe the gold is a bit too OTT for a garden and it could do with being more of a bronze (maybe even a colour selection?) but that's personal taste really. The leaf panel is novel and seems to give a decent charge to the one battery I have in it. Obviously it's summer and we've got long days to get it charged, but so far it's been still providing power into the early hours of the morning. I did give it an initial charge with USB when I got them, but haven't had to since. I look forward to seeing how long it lasts mid-winter, but I'd be happy with another battery or two to bolster that. And that I suppose is the real unknown of any solar light, and something I can't speak to now. How does it fare in less than ideal conditions, and also how well will it work in a year or 3? I've bought Solar Centre post lights before and they looked great that first year, but over a few years stopped working one by one. Time will tell on these but initial reaction is very positive. If their look and colour would suit your garden then you won't regret them, but if you're looking for something a bit more subtle then I'd suggest the Edinburgh lights instead.
