Great lights, fragile bulbs!Verified Purchase
I’ve recently bought three sets of these lights and very happy with the quality - as I would expect at this price point. Only knocked down by one star because of the fragility of the bulbs - the glass is insanely thin and incredibly easy to break. Despite being very careful putting them up, I’ve still managed to break three bulbs! Luckily the package includes a few spares but I wonder why they have to be quite so fragile for outdoor use and whether a plastic bulb could be used?

Falmouth Festoon Verified Purchase
I purchased two sets these 2 years ago, noticed a couple of bulbs were not working ( they had almost corroded inside the fitting ) I emailed The Solar Centre, who sent me a replacement set at no charge - I have since purchased another two sets as I think these are brilliant - they have looked fantastic all winter and I wouldn't hesitate in reccomending them - Ella at the service desk was very helpful too and resolved the matter very quickly - THANK YOU !

All aglowVerified Purchase
I have now bought a number of different products from Solar Centre and all of them have been really excellent. The first thing to comment on is the customer service which is exemplary. The second is the quality of the products.... each of the products I've bought so far have been made of really robust materials and in a very cleverly designed manner. I also think that, apart from the quality of manufacture, material and design, the products are excellent value for money. They work very well indeed and just as described. The Falmouth lights are a good example, being really bright and robust enough to leave outside over winter. Instructions and guarantees are also excellent. By Mike King on Oct 6,2024

Very happy so farVerified Purchase
Quick delivery...well packaged and useful little set up video online. They give off a very impressive amount of light and the usb charge feature will be good for year round use.
I have only been using for a month or so, paying more than I normally would and the real test will be if they are atill working this time next year and beyond. Fingers crossed !! By Jenny on May 12,2024

Amazing lightsVerified Purchase
Absolutely brilliant lights. I paid a little extra than I usuallly do but have already been so impressed. The solar panel looks like it means business - definitely not cheap and tacky like many! I love having the ability to charge by USB meaning these lights were ready to go tonight. And wow! They look fabulous. They create the perfect ambience. I love them. So durable, cool and striking day and night.
Buy them. You won't regret it! By Georgina on Apr 5,2024

Great product excellent service Verified Purchase
Great service -
Having enjoyed the Falmouth lights I purchased earlier this summer I reordered another set. I am very happy with their quality and performance. The lights are attractive, robust and still lit at 05:30 in the morning even after a partly sunny day.
Excellent service is more than just posting boxes promptly, it's how you are treated when your delivery Âgoes astray. My post code was one digit out on my second order and the lights went on a trip to the seaside. The prompt response to my emails from the Solar Centre was brilliant they were helpful and efficient in resolving the issue.
I can recommend them as a good company to do business with. By Pete on Nov 8,2023

Bright Festoon LightsVerified Purchase
I returned a set of Elan Solar Festoon lights which I received a refund for without any problem. I returned them because they weren't as bright as I expected and bought a set of Falmouth USB Solar lights. The Falmouth lights give a fantastic amount of light out with a choice of three different levels. Even the lowest setting gives an adequate Iight. I would thoroughly recommend these if you are looking for a good functional level of lighting and not just a decorative effect. By Brian Talbot on Aug 8,2023

Blown away how bright they areVerified Purchase
So impressed with these solar lights, they are so bright they look like plug-ins, so much brighter than other solar lights I've seen, really glad I paid a bit more for these. The build quality is good with glass bulbs. 3 brightness settings. Only thing I would change is that there is a short distance between the solar panel and the first bulb - not an issue for me because we installed the panel on the fence but could be tricky it you wanted the panel in the ground (your bulbs would start halfway up the fence). Love them so much going to buy more! By Lilly on Jul 13,2023

I am always thrilled with the lights I have brought from solar centre, they work great, my son brought me some 3 years ago & they are still working like they are brand new, I have brought several sets

These festoon lights are excellent. They are really bright on the brightest setting, so light up a dark seating area in the garden. Only negatives are short lead from solar panel to first bulb, so have had to perch the panel, in view, on top of fence panel; also the hanging hooks on the bulbs are only on one side and I can't use them to hang, double sided hooks would be better.

Brighter than i thought they'd beVerified Purchase
These things are great. I built a patio all the way at the end of my quite long garden and did not want to run extension cables all the way from the house.
I was having a BBQ with some mates and after the sun went down, even with a small bonfire going it was a bit silly. A couple of guys turned the torches on their phones on.
I set up these lights around the edge of the patio and it light up the area great. Not so bright as to disturb the neighbors (although there are several settings where i can turn the brightness down), it gives just the right background light so we can all stay outside after dark and keep drinking...

Great solar lightsVerified Purchase
I have 3 sets of these set up along the top of the garden fences. They work really well, but the bulbs sometimes go dark - easily fixed by reinserting them into the holder. One set started to flash rapidly and I managed to fix this by replacing the lithium batteries. The surround of the panel snaps off and there are 8 small screws. Inside are 2 18650 LiOn batteries which aren't soldered in and are easily replaced. By Philip Smith on Feb 18,2023

Have these in my kitchen charged via usb, they are much brighter than any other solar lights I have used. Great quality, and good you can replace the bulbs and buy an extension. Only minor criticism is that the black cable isn't very attractive, it would be great if you could get a white/clear version which would blend in with the decor better! By Cath on Nov 14,2022

Superb lightsVerified Purchase
Initially I bought the Edinburgh festoon lights which were perfectly good however I was drawn to the Falmouth lights because the bulbs can easily be replaced and I could extend the lights together if purchasing more than one set which I was.
It now looks like I'll need another 2 sets to extend them even further round the garden.
Love how they also come with a couple of spare bulbs.

Highlight of my patio..Verified Purchase
These are a great quality product with real glass bulbs and on a decent length cable (8m).
Don't be put off by being solar powered, they have a good light with 3 levels of brightness from 'low and cosy' to 'who's drinking my wine'.
Easy to recommend and the box includes 2 spare bulbs just incase... (beware of the Penyata stick) By Michael Taylor on Oct 4,2022

I've generally been sceptical about solar powered lights....however I convinced myself from these reviews. And I have to say that my doubts were unfounded here - what a great set of lights. Arrived quickly and beautifully packed (thank you), with spares as well. Pretty bright on full power, a nice ambiance on lower power. Look fantastic.
