Useful product Verified Purchase
Having used decorative solar lights we decided to try a solar security light to light the approach to the front door. Unfortunately this aspect is north so we bought an extension cable to allow us to site the panel in a better orientation. November may not be the best time of year to try the light but we are satisfied with the results. It arrived quickly and was easy enough to install for a handy person.

Good light Verified Purchase
This is my first proper solar light. Good quick delivery. Easy to install. Working well so far. Only slight issue for me is that the maximum time the light is on could be a bit longer, as one of my dogs can take his time finding the right spot for his nighttime wee!

Great Product. Verified Purchase
Bought a cheap solar light from a local store thinking it would do the job. I wish I had seen this one first, gives out loads of light for the size of it. Very happy with this purchase.

Good performance Verified Purchase
I am pleased with the performance of the action activated solar light. It is very useful to have three separate controls for brightness, timing and sensitivity insuring that stored battery power is not wasted

I am back! Verified Purchase
I recently moved house and, somewhat reluctantly, left my old lights to the new owner. I bought these for my new place but I have not yet yet put them up because I want to be sure that the panel is placed to catch good sun in the winter months. The placement was a no-brainer in my old place and, given the efficiency of my old lights, I am not overly concerned about the placement for these new ones but ... .

Lighting for Dog Exercise area Verified Purchase
I purchased the Evo SMD Solar Security light to illuminate the fenced area used by my dog at night. He turns on the light himself and the whole 15 metre run is lit. It works perfectly in a north facing area with little direct sunlight for the solar panel. The light was easy to fit (I am a Civil Engineer), but fitting the light to the bracket during a hailstorm with frozen fingers hampered the process. An improvement would be to have outward facing bolts built into the light body, with nuts and washers fitted from the outside.

Good lights. Verified Purchase
All fine with these. Have lit up a local path adjacent to my house and they are charged from the panels I've put on my side of the fence. Neighbours are impressed.

First SMD product Verified Purchase
Online ordering process was easy. Delivery was ahead of promised date. Unit was easy to install and easy to operate. I am using it to provide sufficient light at night for a security camera to capture anyone entering the back of the house at night. I was concerned that the SE facing solar panel would not sufficiently charge the battery. So far, so good !

SMD experience Verified Purchase
Easy to order online. Fast delivery. Easy to install. Need to modify lighting conditions/time on to suit - but easy and don't have to dismantle to execute.

Does the job Verified Purchase
Set it at the lower ends of the settings to see how it gets on. So far, after a wek or two, it seems to work fine. It comes on when it should, gives a good cler light and goes off when it should. Installation went like clockwork (except for the little washer for which there was no instruction). The solar panel I fitted to a board and it sits on the garage roof. All in all, chuffed with the whole thing.

A surprisingly good light Verified Purchase
This is the second security light I have purchased from this company and I have found them both very effective. My first light lasted several years until the sensor failed which is not replaceable, however the company were very helpful and I purchased a replacement of a very similar model. This works perfectly and was easy to set up. I moved the first light into my garage as it is still charging very well and I use the on/off switch to illuminate the garage on dark nights so I am in essence getting further use out of it until perhaps another component fails. I was also offered a discount with my purchase of the second light . Overall I am very pleased with both the light and the attitude of the company.

Evo SMD Verified Purchase
Good light. Easily installed and looks good. Had to wait a day for it to fully charge but since then it has been extremely efficient. Good illumination. The controls are a touch fiddly but once in the right position the light is fine. I have made several purchases from the Solar Centre and would recommend. Christine F.

Evo SMD Solar Security Light Verified Purchase
The item was well packaged and delivered promptly. The solar lamp is used to light up the side entry to my house and is ideal for this purpose. First day after installation there was insufficient charge but from day two the lamp provided a good light. Works perfectly. Very pleased with this purchase and definitely value for money.

Evo SMD Verified Purchase
Good price however would not have bought without the 25per cent promotion code discount. Excellent service from the SolarCentre, easy to follow installation instructions,recommended settings ideal for my situation i.e. does not activate too early and switches off after 20 seconds. In all a very efficient company.

A very good outside light Verified Purchase
This solar powered outside light is easy to install and set up with similar controls to mains powered outside lights. It is robustly built and well waterproofed. The solar panel is a good size and the cable length allows a range of choice of location in relation to the light. The installation instructions recommend positions for the 3 control settings - I did not find that these worked very well and had to adjust them once darkness fell, but that was quite easy. A diagram with 'drill your holes xx cms apart' would have been helpful.

Perfect Verified Purchase
This is the second light I've bought from the Solar Centre so needless to say I'm a fan! Nothing is too much trouble and it's easy to contact them if there's a problem. Would recommend..

great quality Verified Purchase
These are a very good heavy duty quality , substantial piece of kit. Very pleased with the way they work in our hotel garden to light up the steps to the deck, where I also have the fairy lights. Very pleased with purchase.
By Fran on Apr 30, 2017

Great Verified Purchase
... same as all other comments! Also, I have bushes in the garden that sway in the wind, so I was concerned they would keep setting off the light, but they never do even though I can set off the sensor just by waving my hand across the area. Very good and good service from Solar Centre too.
By Phil Hale on Apr 20, 2017

Perfect Verified Purchase
Great little light, bright enough and not too blinding for neighbours. Able to put it up easily, no electrician needed ! Only worry is the cable from the light, I would have like it too be longer and thinner to allow it to be hidden to protect it where it joins the 5 meter cable to the solar panel.
By Edward Wegelius on Mar 30, 2017

Superb Verified Purchase
I purchased the light to illuminate my chicken run at night to stave off foxes and rats. The solar panel cable tied wonderfully onto the run cage roof and I cable tied the light into the corner of the run cage. The variable functions to set the light intensity, duration etc are a fab feature too. Would highly recommend. I don't have to worry at all about my girls being down the bottom of the garden in the dead of night anymore!

So far so good Verified Purchase
First impressions seems very robust. The metal plate solar panel is certainly better looking and more solidly constructed than the plastic predecessor I had at my last house! So far so good for lighting but not been up more than 2 days so I will review again if charge starts to drop. Solar panel is south facing so hopefully won't be a problem
By Tom Stenning on Jan 13, 2017

Ordered light on Monday and delivered on Wednesday, kept informed of order progress from despatch to delivery. Given a 1 hour delivery slot, great service. Simple installation, good quality lamp, great price. Worked straight out of the box. If you want a Solar Security Lamp then this is the one. I would buy again from the Solar Centre.

Lights well Verified Purchase
Lights a dark path well. A tad fiddly to fix due to small bracket fittings but okay providing care is taken. (detach the bracket on a table first prior to location fitting to avoid losing small parts.) Speedy delivery.

Poor instruction manual Verified Purchase
Fitted the solar security light today and found the instructions not very clear as there was no mention of a rubber O ring in the box. Also the connector plug was not a good fit as it would not tighten up fully so had to wrap some electrical tape around it to prevent any rain water from getting in. The solar panel is also very difficult to install,do you attach the wall brackets to the light or to the wall first as there is no mention in the instructions as to the order this should be done. Hopefully the light will operate without any problems only time will tell.

Great Product Verified Purchase
I moved to a house where there are no street lights and after dark in winter it is dark. I mean dark that when you come out the front door you cant see the car 2 meters away, oh the caris also white!!!! I have bought lights in the past and whilst they work great in the summer they just dont in the winter. Well not the case with this baby it's now late November and when I get home on comes this little light every time. It is still going strong when I get up early to get the train. Simple as anything to fit and to set and made of proper material not the cheap stuff you get at the DIY store. The only bad thing I could say is that the cable from the panel to the light was not long enough in my case but I found out that these guys also sell a 5 meter extension cable. I have now just ordered another light for the Back of the house with the extension cable.

no fuss Verified Purchase
after trying to rewire a replacement security light for my back garden five holes later and a lot of wire no joy I decided to buy the solar security light 10 mins later it was up and working. Yes the light is not quite as bright as the hard wired light but it is enough for my small back garden. I am very pleased with it.

Bought at Last Verified Purchase
After many month pondering whether to buy or not ,I decided to, and so far I am very pleased with the light it gives. It was easy to fit though like other have said the crews are a bit to small for it, no trouble as I was prepared, and used my own. Will buy again. David P D from Sheffield

Light on my darkness Verified Purchase
Never any problem with their prompt delivery.I thought the unit had a weighty gravitas. My fourth from Solarcentre. Sorry that I could not get a match for an earlier light on the same building line. This one is not as bright as the other but it serves requirements. Concern initially with inability to have it switch off, having tried various positions on the PIR controls. These I found small. Difficult to see and adjust until I used a "light-up" magnifier. (73 with "essential tremor" was added problem in setting. I think I've cracked it. Solacentre are good for service and after-sales. I would recommend them.

Excellent Products Verified Purchase
Having purchased products at retailers and on line I can honestly say that these products exceeded my expectations. Delivery services was great and the fitting and set up was very easy to do. Excellent products that I have been looking to find for a long time now.
By Chris Jones on Apr 25, 2016

Seems to do the job Verified Purchase
The light arrived quickly and was well packaged. The instructions are easy to follow and the light appears to be well constructed. As mentioned elsewhere, the ball joint on the solar panel is inadequate - despite tightening the keeper screws, it would not withstand strong winds. The sensor has a good range and the 30 watt bulb is adequate to illuminate the area that the dogs use at night. Also as mentioned previously, the fitting screws are not up to the job and I substituted them for a larger size. All in all, it has saved me a lot of time and expense that would have been incurred by fitting a mains powered light but time will tell!
By Victor on Apr 21, 2016

---

Good, but room for improvement! Verified Purchase
The light is a solid metal construction (PIR is plastic) and good quality for the price. The amount of light is pretty acceptable and lights up the ally-way at the side of the house pretty well, never quite as bright as you expect (approx. to a 30 watt bulb) but OK. As others have mentioned the ball joint connecting the solar panel to its base is pretty poor, it does have positions where it 'locks' into place, but it's pretty weak and I'm sure it will move over time. One solution could be to fill the ball joint with silicon filler once you're happy with its positioning, but this really shouldn't be necessary. Finally, I highly recommend that you throw away the cheap and nasty screws and wall plugs supplied with it and use some of better quality, the screws are soft so the heads round off really easily, and the wall plugs don't grip very well. It's a good product that with a few minor tweaks could be made pretty much perfect!

Excellent service, good product. Verified Purchase
Package arrived quickly, well packed and intact. Product did everything it said on the box. I bought the 350 lumens which lights up about 15 feet of garden parthway, exactly what i wanted. Very strong light.
By Sam Hall on Apr 2, 2016

very good product Verified Purchase
Order was managed extremely well by excellent staff. Light arrived as advertised and fitting was straightforward. Light worked well from the day of fitting and light is strong and effective over driveway. Would recommend for normal everyday use in domestic settings.
By rob on Mar 30, 2016

---

Reasonable Verified Purchase
As with other fitters, solar panel ball joint loose. Mounted at 2.5 metres from the ground, the PIR sensor did not operate over a distance of 15ft over the roofs of cars and so did not trigger and light up dark corner of car park. A bit finicky!
By Ohgrief on Mar 28, 2016

---

I have 3 of these now Verified Purchase
Very good light that works as advertised and is easy to install. My only gripe (see other reviews) is the ball joint on the solar panel which is a bit inconsistent in terms of tightness and cannot be adjusted which means that the alignment may not hold in a windy spot.
By Steve on Mar 8, 2016

Fabulius Verified Purchase
Love the light give off. Just a bit fiddly to try and fix on wall. But end product is faultless. Very happy !
By clara on Mar 6, 2016

Odd idea Verified Purchase
I haven't yet fitted this anywhere. It may yet be returned for refund, as I find it odd that a security light should have an easily-accessible and clearly labelled on/off switch! Unless an intruder is spotted immediately - unlikely if the householder is in bed - there is an opportunity for the intruder to switch the unit off without being noticed. If I do keep it, I'll be using different mounting screws to the ones supplied, as those are inadequate.
By Malcolm Pitts on Mar 5, 2016

Solar Security Light Verified Purchase
My light arrived on time, this is my second Evo SMD, it's small powerful and very easy to install, the extension cable (bought separately) allowed me to install the light 10 metres from the solar collector which is exactly what I needed. The light was pre-charged and therefore worked straightaway, it was very easy to set-up and it works perfectly with good illumination of my garden, I would certainly recommend this product.
By Paul on Feb 20, 2016

---

Simon Verified Purchase
I like the light. The remote solar charger gives great freedom of placement and the light charges quickly. I bought and installed during early Feb and the unit has been working well. There are some issues; The solar panel is loose in the ball and socket joint and has no way to tighten it. I was unable to adjust the sensitivity. Even with the sensitivity turned to minimum, the light still triggers in bright daylight. It was not as bright as I had hoped, but is adequate for visitors approaching the front door. Overall a good product, but needs some tweaking.
By Simon on Feb 19, 2016

---

Brilliant service Verified Purchase
I have now bought 3 of these lights for members of my family. However I do agree with Steve's review of 6th Feb. "the light works well, sensitivity and adjustments work very well also sensor range however one issue was the ball mount on solar panel couldn't tighten up enough to make the panel immovable." Service from "The Solar Centre is second to none. Each time my order was delivered the next day without having to pay extra for next day delivery. Well done! I shall certainly recommend the Solar Centre and this light to all of my friends.

New EVO Solar Light Verified Purchase
Was disappointed that the box in which the light was delivered was very damaged and had been previously used. This was a concern that it was a return from another customer. I have misplaced the page of instructions that came with the light and I cannot find a copy on your website.

Bought a second one Verified Purchase
Our communal car parking area was vulnerable. The first light was so good we decided to buy a second one to protect the other corner. Enough power to last the whole night even in winter
By Hillel Fridman on Feb 1, 2016

---

I did it Verified Purchase
My old evo security light finally died after many years of good service. This was a replacement, to be situated on a metal bar projecting over a passageway. It was not a straightforward swap. I needed to drill a hole in thick metal, no easy job for a short 68 year old widow but that was the most difficult part. The light is in place, held by two good bolts through the metal and is working very well.
By maria on Jan 29, 2016

Very Handy Verified Purchase
This solar flood light is very handy to install on walls where a mains supply is difficult to obtain. Easily fitted and a good light output.The three controls for sensitivity,time and lux level are very useful as some lamps don't have them.
By Nigel on Jan 29, 2016

---

Problem with connecting cap Verified Purchase
The plastic cap which screws over the connection between the light and the solar panel was on the cable side of the the panel connector and would not slip over the raised rings on the connector in order to screw into the light connector. It took me as long to force it over the raised rings as it had done to install the entire lighting system. The light works well.
By Paul on Jan 21, 2016

Good product Verified Purchase
Wasn't sure if the light would be good enough - but works very well for the side of the house\garage, only issue was trying to fit it without removing the light is fiddly.
By Paul on Jan 21, 2016

Brilliant Verified Purchase
Great product at a great price. Bought 2 of these and they are performing well. Powerful light for the size and sensitive PIR. Only downside are the cheap screws provided for fitting, so consider using your own.
By Rob on Jan 21, 2016

Excellent product Verified Purchase
I bought these to light up a dark passageway long enough to walk down. One is set in an area shaded from direct sun. Both work perfectly and have done so in the winter as well. As a result of my experience, I have purchased three additional ones for other parts of the garden. I am totally satisfied with the product and recommend it.

I am very happy with the product so far. It looks well made, although there is a mark on the solar panel which I hope will not impact its performance, and was easy to set up. I was also impressed with the speed of delivery.

Solar Light Verified Purchase
I am impressed with the product and the speed of the free delivery. I think that the method for holding the solar panel in position needs a locking system to hold it more firmly but apart from that - a great product.

Best solar light around Verified Purchase
I had earlier versions of this and was impressed. This latest version with the LED chip is even better. This is the third one I have ordered. Only thing I would suggest is keeping some cockpit shine or some similar polish on the solar panel to stop the plastic face fading in the sun over time.
By John Henderson on Dec 19, 2015

By Chris Bradbury on Dec 17, 2015

Excellent bit of kit. Verified Purchase
Much more subtantial and brighter than I thought it would be. Only moan is that it thinks a winter day up North is night time, so it switches on when it detects someone during the day - even when it's adjusted to its limit. Not a problem though, as there's not a great deal of traffic where it's sighted.

They keep texting better! Verified Purchase
This light performs so well. It seems to have enough charge even with this dreary weather we've been having! It out performs the Astron, even though the panel is half the size. I've avoided ones with sensors in the past as they never seemed to work, but the PIR on this one is sensitive and so far working perfectly.

Good, powerful little light Verified Purchase
So far so good! Delivery was quick and I agree with Pat G, screws need to be better and bigger! Have had the light itself angled on a piece of timber as it was wanted for a corner light and as light itself doesn't pivot my fitter came up with a good plan! But those screws would never have held it! Hence the four star rating. Light came on first evening, without much powering up and as it is angled to our south facing garden it just keeps on getting brighter! Not sure I would have paid full price but so far pleased with my purchase.
By F H on Dec 10, 2015

Solar works! Verified Purchase
Delivery very quick. Needs better screws to make secure fixing, but easily changed. Light works well. Not a bright light but sufficient to light the drive around the back door, without causing irritation to the neighbours. Pleased with this purchase.
By Pat G on Dec 7, 2015

Best & brightest light ever! Verified Purchase
Very pleased with the prompt delivery and ease of ordering. Had to get a handyman in to fix it up, as I can't hold a drill! The light itself is very bright, just the thing to lighten up a dark driveway. The build quality is very sturdy, and very bright. Thank you for an excellent product & service.

excellent Verified Purchase
brilliant light powerfull enough to light my drive way and path.it could do with better wall plugs i would like to buy another one for my back garden but it is in a heavily shaded location unless i can extend the cable and run it through my garage to the front of my house.i would buy the next one up from this as there is a bigger area to cover.
By chris merritt on Nov 14, 2015

---

More than Adequate Verified Purchase
An excellent light which does the job very well when the product cost and ease of installation are taken into account. No, it's not a high wattage mains device so, if you need really bright illumination over a large area, you'll need to make a greater investment in product, installation, and ongoing costs. For my job, lighting the frontage of a Summer House, it performs very adequately.

Good idea..for hard to light areas or sites with restricted mains access. Would like the light unit itself to be movable from side to side as with the pir unit..would like to be able to extend the cable from the solar panel . ...worth buying.

Excellent Verified Purchase
Really excellent kit - powerful enough lamp and easy to setup. I'd suggest better raw plugs and longer screws as I used to fit them securely to the outside wall but all in all happy with this it's brilliant - highly recommended

Fine - does the job well Verified Purchase
Basically met me expectations but as it's mounted quite high it doesn't come on quite soon enough even at max. sensitivity.

Good value Verified Purchase
Good value and easy to install. Particularly liked the sole powered idea due to the placement of the lights would have made it difficult to connect to the mains power. Got 2, one for the garden and another for the driveway. Wish I'd gone for the 750 lumen one for the garden, as I hadn't truly understood how much light cover it offers. But the one for the driveway is perfect. Also have to admit, trying to fix the light to the wall was challenging as the holes in the bracket are obstructed by the light. However you can take the light off the bracket but then you have the challenge of trying to refix the light to the bracket once the brackets fixed to the wall...could do with a bit more consideration on this and it'd be perfect. I'd still buy these, if I need more lighting in the future, though from experience will know what I need to buy. (I'm now considering the sola garden post lights.....).

The lamp unit needs larger "flathead" screws to mount it properly. The ones supplied are too small. Otherwise, it is a good lamp with reasonable illumination. Speedy delivery.

Purchased agan Verified Purchase
Purchased my 5th EVO SMD Solar Security light as fed up with my mains light which kept blowing the bulbs. Have had other lights for 2 years now and they work brilliantly so i purchased this latest one to replace the mains light. Works really well with 2 other ones t illuminate the pathway to my garage down a shaded pathway.

Brilliant! Verified Purchase
I really like this one. It is bright, works in winter, even though the solar panel is in a less than perfect location, and is very robust. I've had it for about a year so far with no problems.

Bought another one Verified Purchase
The unit seem s to work well so far (two weeks) The screws were too small for the lamp bracket so I had to use my own! The cable is too long (some complain it is too short) a flexible system would be better where you could shorten or extend it as necessary. I have bought a second one so putting my trust in the product.

Already have 2. No good if you want to read 20 yards away but fine for getting about without kicking the cat.Would be better if the cable could be shortened. Also the screws provided are too small for the lamp housing. None the less work well and I now have 4

Works well, hope it lasts Verified Purchase
I bought this to replace a similar light which had worked well but stopped doing so after about a year, the lamp section was fine but there were signs of water in the PIR. They are easy to install and give a reasonable amount of light. Delivery is very quick and the price is fair.

A cost effective Security Light Verified Purchase
I wanted an effective security light that did not require connection to the mains supply with its attendant wiring and switch installation on my old stone cottage, which has two foot thick walls! I ordered an EVO SMD as it appeared to meet my requirements. I have not been dissapointed. It is was fairly easy to mount and set up and worked as desired from the outset. I was so pleased with its performance that I ordered two more to cover other parts of my property. I recommend this product as a cost effective security light solution.

Brilliant light - better company! Verified Purchase
I've purchased a number of products from The Solar Centre, and always been impressed with their prompt delivery and the quality of the lights. I purchased an EVO light just over 12 months ago, and it has given brilliant (excuse the pun) service throughout last winter and into this year; however a couple months ago I noticed the PIR unit had filled with water and the unit had stopped working. I contacted The Solar Centre and they immediately sent a replacement, which they said had improved sealing. Only a couple of months into the replacement - I started having issues again - so again contacted The Solar Centre; who were very surprised to hear of additional issues - after a couple of messages back and forth and to my intense embarrassment it was found that the fault was of my making!! - I had mounted the unit in such a way the PIR was upside down - thus allowing water into the unit - Whoops!! But in true customer service fashion, The Solar Centre have sent me a replacement free of charge, which I have dutifully promised to fit the correct way up!! Thanks very much to The Solar Centre for all their help with this issue. I would whole heartily recommend both this light and The Solar Centre.

Great product Verified Purchase
Couldn't get the waterproof cable join to screw back up, and wasn't quite sure of the point of the hinged flaps on the very large mounting plate so took them off (a smaller neater plate would be better), but apart from those minor niggles this is a great product - very solidly made, detection is faultless and the light output is amazing. Definitely recommend it so far.

Bought another Verified Purchase
Just bought a second one of these lights. The first I installed in November behind an oak tree in a very rainy area. It has worked throughout the winter reliably to light the area around the drive/back door. Not as bright as the old mains light they replace but adequate for getting around, causing less light pollution and cheaper. Excellent service, easily fitted.

Great Light Verified Purchase
I was surprised at the brightness of the light - it's certainly not a mains halogen brightness but it's quite adequate for a smaller area and doesn't require the expense of a mains installation or the on-going running cost. A very good product at a reasonable price.

Very impressed Verified Purchase
I recently purchased the Evo SMD Solar Security Light to trial and was so impressed with it that we have just ordered a second one. It is exceptionally easy to install if you remove the bracket first but I was sorry to see that despite having being told about it in other reviews that the screw heads are STILL TOO SMALL and either need to be changed or you have to fit a bigger screw. The light however does everything it should and is certainly bright enough for our entranceway.

Thief Deterrant! Verified Purchase
Following theft of parts from our charity minibuses we installed a camera and two of these lights. On the first night in use the thief returned and got the shock of his life! Very bright, clearly illuminating facial features. He took off at a lick and hasn't been back since. Highly recommended.
By Midge Curry on Apr 7, 2015

EVO SMD TReview Verified Purchase
I was doubtful that it would be bright enough but was pleasantly surprised by the effective light. Installation was straight forward as I was prepared with my own fixings. A downside is that the solar panel moves in the high wind and there doesn't appear to be a way of locking it in position. Otherwise a good product.

Shine a light Verified Purchase
Needed light above my garage so I could locate door locks in the pitch black. Very easy to install ( I removed the light bracket first)& once done left it switched off for five days to ensure full charge. once it got dark gave it a test by walking towards the garage and hey presto, we have light. Great light source for what I need. My only niggle is on mine the Solar charger is fixed to a ball joint to allow it to swivel, I found that it was way too lose without means to tighten it. On my set up this is not a hardship. The problem could be resolved by a couple of screws to allow the user to adjust the panel and to maintain the direction with out a even a slight breeze knocking it of course. Winter light will be the real test for charging but looking forward to summer before then.

Beating the Tinkers! Verified Purchase
Dial-a-Ride is a charity providing transport for the elderly and disabled. Of late we have had a spate of thefts of wing mirrors and starter motors from our vehicles. A security camera and two of these lights were installed two weeks ago and it has been hilarious watching the thieves jump out of their skins and scarper when these lights come on. They are tremendously bright and worth every penny.

Weathered the Winter Storms! Verified Purchase
Like others I was sceptical as to how solar security light would work but I bought one of these in the summer but waited to see how it faired over the winter weather and it coped BRILLIANTLY with the wind/rain/snow and is still belting out EXCELLENT light after 6 months use. Only down side is that the bracket is a pain to screw into the wall because the flood light gets in the way. I would highly recommend! 5 stars
By Dogshape Brown on Mar 22, 2015

Nice light Verified Purchase
Easy to install. Looks bright enough for me and a good amount of adjustable parameters. Only negative was that there wasn't enough screws and no washers to fix the light bracket to the wall. Luckily I had some of my own. Other than that, tickety boo!

2nd light purchased Verified Purchase
Bought a 2nd one of these lights in the sale as I was very happy and impressed with the first light I bought. 2nd light is just as good and great for places where you have a sunny / south facing place to put the panel and where getting electric is an issue. I'd not hesitate to recommend this light.

listen to customers Verified Purchase
As with other customer feedback a good product let down by irritating oversight of fixings not suitable for the job in hand. Whilst easily remedied by the buyer, I wonder why the supplier does not do likewise, hence only three stars.
By William Brown on Mar 13, 2015

---

Great little light Verified Purchase
I bought two of these lights, one for each side of the house. Fitting was straightforward, despite the inadequate size of the screw heads, which meant that I had to add washers before screwing the bracket for the lamp to the wall. The 5m connecting cable was more than adequate for placing the solar panels in optimum locations away from the lamps, but needed to get a pack of cable clips to secure the cable run. Light output is good enough to provide low intensity illumination from a height of about 4m.
By Martin on Mar 8, 2015

Screws to small/Don't be put off Verified Purchase
This is a very good lamp. Easy to install. I cannot comment on the actual working of the lamp as it was for a customer and not my own use, I have not had any feed back so it must be OK. I have only given this a four star rating, the reason is that the heads of fixing screws are just not large enough to secure the lamp. Would i buy another one? Yes indeed. first class service.

Let down by screws Verified Purchase
Get light output for a solar light. A great security deterrent. Was let down by mounting bracket holes are too large for supplied small screws or even a standard screw head. You need to put your own washers under the screw head to mount the light or re-drill the bracket. Turns a simple job into a trip to the DIY store.

This is a unit that will last outside unlike cheap diy store products that last 3 months. The remote panel is great for getting to the south facing wall. Working perfectly in Scottish january/Feb. Belts out plenty light when triggered .... for free (well after the purchase). Great company and very high product quality . As per other review the mounting screws were missing a couple of washers to stop them going through the bracket but i have a tin of them so no biggy. Fast delivery see a good bunch lots of products.

Impressed Verified Purchase
I have to say I was sceptical of Solar lights after seeing the dire garden lights you usually see in peoples gardens. We have just bought a new house, with a garage with no power which is a long way from the house. The cost to get power was going to be expensive so I thought i'd spend £40.00 and give the Evo a try and I have to say I am very impressed so far. The install is easy, long cable to the solar panel which i've placed in a good South facing position at the other side of the garage and the light is excellent. Great power and very happy. I'll be buying more lights from these guys.
By Jules on Feb 3, 2015

Excellent piece of kit
I installed one of these at Christmas and it has worked excellently. So impressed I got a second one for my daughter and now have friends queuing up for them... Good light, excellent range of controls and good flexibility for installation. As noted by other it would be good if the screws didn't slip through the holes but a screw cap soon fixes that...
By Brian Westhead on Feb 1, 2015

EVO Security Light
So far so good. I've had a solar light in my garden shed, and another solar security light. The EVO seems much better built. The screws supplied for the brackets have too small a screw head and I had to use different screws. No big deal but would be nice to send proper screws.

Good light Verified Purchase
Pleased with the light - plenty bright for what I want and easy to install. Just two minor points of criticism: as others have said, larger and round head screws are needed for the light mounting bracket, and the swivel for the solar panel seems a little on the loose side - I'll see how it fares in use.
By Peter on Jan 15, 2015

---

Works Great Verified Purchase
I installed this easily and the cable stretched from one end of my largish shed to the other end across the roof. It was a little fiddly to screw the light onto the shed so I do recommend (as the instructions say you might have to) that you remove the light from the bracket using the side bolts. Light was charged up when it arrived and light was a lot brighter than I was expecting. The light angle can be moved up and down but not side to side which is a shame. I would prefer a light that illuminates where the PIR is pointing rather than just straight forward but I can rectify this with some DIY on the shed. On/off switch is a little too visible and if you are using this as a security light on the shed you do not want anyone reaching up to switch the light off. I would prefer that this switch is hidden around the back more. All said I was very pleased with the light.

Good light - traditional style Verified Purchase
Good traditional style security light where you can individually adjust the angle of the light, the sensor and place the solar panel where it gets the most sun. Adjustable for lux, time, sensitivity and so far is working with our limited winter daylight hours. Detects to 12m as it says on the box. As previous reviewer says - the screws supplied are too small to mount the light, they fell through the holes. Seems they have had a batch with the wrong screws supplied. I just used my own stainless screws that I luckily had to hand. Still 5 * rating.

Did the job Verified Purchase
This was bought to floodlight an area around a door, where any caller at night could be well illuminated, for security reasons. It was placed on a south facing wall, so no particular need for siting the panel. It was relatively easy to fix. When switched on during a dull winters day it functioned immediately and continues to do so. Good value.

This lamp is very easy to install, reasonably unobtrusive and (after a few weeks use) seems to perfectly satisfactory.

Solar security light Verified Purchase
Bought this light as a replacement for a light that had water in it. This looked more robust and after initially charging it the light is really powerful and easily lights up the area around the back of the house. The one suggestion I would say is if the lead could be longer or be able to be extended. The light relies on the sun and sometimes it's not possible to mount the solar panel in its optimum spot so you have to take that into account when mounting the lamp. Apart from that a good bit of kit and the usual prompt efficient service from the solar centre.

Very good quality light. awesome PIR distance. good light output for the tiny 10w SMD led. im using it to light up a driveway at end of garden.. time will tell.. as my place is on coast and gets hit by strong winds/rain. I had to secure the light/pir/pv cell better with bits of wood. A few things required for next version..... -- consider a brighter LED option. are you able to make a option for a 50w SMD light? or would pv panel have to be increase? -- Add a position locking mechanism for the PIR sensor. you can lock it in position on the vertical axis, but not horizontally. Have had to secure mind further with zip ties due to strong winds moving it. Although the vertical locking isn't brilliant (change to a secure nut/bolt design?) -- the PV cell ball joint isn't idle in windy places. and it could move easy on the slightly touch. add a option for the user to detach the ball joint and fixing points on side of panel to allow direct fixing to a surface... or on another note. change the ball joint for one that can be tightened securely. A two light option and 1 pv cell option would be good.

Very Impressed Verified Purchase
So far so good. Without any sun this week the light has continued to work normally, It was easy to put up, and although the dials to set the sensor, and timer are a bit fiddly I'm more than happy with this so far. Would definitely recommend,

Evo SMD Verified Purchase
Lights up a north facing entrance from 35 feet, and at 90 degrees to the light. Mounted the panel on a bracket to face south over the entrance door. Currently set to turn off after 45 seconds. Very useful lighting up the access steps, saving electricity. Much appreciated by the rest of the household. Will see how it enjures the Welsh weather at 700 feet altitude.

Just The Ticket Verified Purchase
I run an eco friendly Guest House and wanted to light up a dark area of my car park without having the expense of calling in an electrician.. This security light is just the ticket, although it does not light up the area like a mains PIR spot light, it is excellent and the amount of light far exceeded my expectations... it looks a solid piece of kit... and installed for under £40

Evo SMD security light Verified Purchase
We have put this light on a porch attached to a holiday let mobile home in our farm yard. It was easy to put up and picks up movement effectively . solar panel is situated South West and obviously works well as there is effective low light to guide visitors to the front door. We would reccommend this product.

Does the job
We needed two security lights on the drive and outside our back door. The delivery was fast and efficient. My husband found them fairly easy to install but siting the panels to get the sunlight proved a bit awkward. However after a bit of trial and error the units charged up quickly and are working well. We would recommend this product.

Evo SMS solar light Verified Purchase
Bought this to light up the front of our house as people walk down. I was not sure if it would be bright enough but I am very impressed with it and did not realise solar lights could be so bright. Well worth the money and really easy to set up and it was delivered quickly

Very easy to set up and ample cable length between light and solar panel allows fitting options. A great product does just what I wanted it to do would recommend the product

Good quality Verified Purchase
I needed a light for my garden to allow me to find our rabbit and put him away in his hutch for the night. The light is very well manufactured and was very easy to install. There are however two small issues that I have found : 1: The solar panel does not stay at the angle it is set and falls flat as the knuckle is loose so, optimum angle for catching the sunlight maybe affected? 2: The brightness. The unit I purchased has the lower output. In hindsight, I possibly should have purchased the more powerful Evo56? All in all though, a very good quality product that was dispatched very quickly and well packaged.

So Far So Good Verified Purchase
Easy to install. Bit fiddly to set controls, got easier when I put glasses on. Works well, even though weather been quite dull. Been up 2 weeks so far and survived few days heavy rain and high winds.

Does the job well Verified Purchase
This light is well constructed. Excellent precise connections and easy to reach on/off switch. The light is adequate but not as bright as the more expensive model sold on the same website. Improved waterproofing .Very pleased. Excellent friendly service as usual. I have bought several products from this seller and will continue to do so.

Good Product Verified Purchase
I live in a village with very limited street lighting and didn't want the expense of installing 240V ac armoured cable to light the car parking area at the top of my garden, 20 metres away. This solar light does the job very well, easy to install with good instructions. Well worth the money.

One satisfied customer! Verified Purchase
Only bought this light recently but so far very pleased with it. It is, in fact, the second one I've bought from you this year. They are straightforward to install and give a very good light. Would like to compliment your company on your customer service regarding a battery for a previous Evo light. Would certainly use the Solar Centre again.

Does the job! Verified Purchase
Fitted to the shed to illuminate a dark pathway. Took a few days to dial in the sensitivity and duration. It's transformed a passage along the path in the dark. Both the light and panel were smaller than expected (good) and it works effectively so far.

Love it. This gives the bin area of the garden next to the shed excellent light. I thought it may have been better if the light could have been more directional,but not a problem.

Good Light
I was going to buy another Eye Security Light, but saw this new light at a tempting price and bought it instead. The problems with waterproofing in older generation lights have been addressed, and this is a robust looking light. It was easy to install and gives out a good bright light, however it does not have the versatility of the Eye: the sensor is beneath the light instead of separate, which limits its range. The solar panel is of a good size and has a fair length of cable which attaches securely to the light. I have not been able to position the panel in an ideal spot, but it works well anyway. Overall, I prefer the Eye, but if the waterproofing of this light could be used on the Eye, that would be the perfect light in my opinion!

A good buy Verified Purchase
This is robustly made and works well. I can't believe it's really the equivalent of a 100w bulb, but it gives a good light and was easy to install and adjust. Much better than what I've seen in B&Q.

Evo Security Light Verified Purchase
The first light had the mounting bolts cross threaded, the glue on connecting tube from the light to the sensor did not take. Contacted The Company and they immediately sent out a replacement, however the ball joint on the Solar Panel was loose and unable the position the Solar Panel without it falling down. Used the Solar Panel from the first light, so I have made one working light from 2. I am not impressed by the quality control on these products but impressed by the responce of the Company

Brilliant lights Verified Purchase
I bought one for my garden and was pleasantly surprised at the brightness, so ordered another one as my garden is fairly large. This one was faulty, but upon ringing them, they sent another one out the same day! Great service and once the solar panels have charged up the lights, my garden with be protected. Let's hope they stand up to the winter well.

First impressions Verified Purchase
I had problems with water getting into my Evo36 so I contacted solar centre who kindly offered me money back and this new Evo SMD fitting. The difference is obvious the minute you take it out the box. The waterproofing weak points on the older model have been well and truly dealt with on the SMD which has been sealed to a very high standard. The light has been working very well so far but the true test will come in winter.
By Eugine on Jul 23, 2014

Massive improvement on older Evos
Didn't expect this to compete with my Evo36 which finally gave up the ghost after 3 years service, but it does. If anything its actually brighter than the 36 even though the unit is quite a bit smaller (the solar panel is same size as 36). Definitely prefer the warm white on this to the blue white of the 36 and the unit looks much more waterproof too.
