Great lights

These are perfect, chunkier than I expected which is great, much higher quality than most cheaper versions. Will be ordering more.

Love these lights
Verified Purchase
I bought two sets of these lights a few years ago and love these lights that I have now bought another set. We use them outside our caravan as they are easy to store and easy to set up. The lights seem to stay on for a lot longer than any others I have had and are much brighter. Certainly the best solar lights I have ever had.

Great lights

Easy to install (Unlike some other reviews, I had no problems with the switch). Give quite a bright light compared to previous solar lights that I have purchased. They seem well made and the first few weeks of use have proved great. Time will tell whether they last.

Excellent
Verified Purchase
Bought first set as present for my Dad and he is so impressed with them. You may think you could buy cheaper but they would never be able to equal the performance of these lights. I have just purchased a second set for my friends Birthday, safe in the knowledge that they are a quality item. Can't rate these high enough and fast delivery too.

Having purchased sets of these in the past I was glad to find solarcentre had these in stock to replace worn out ones.Wonderful in place in the garden. As mentioned in another revue the switches can be a bother just getting the setting right, but apart from that great.

Good product
Verified Purchase
I bought two packs (8 lights). Any more than this would be overkill for my project. They look the part, being smart stylist and a bit understated. The only gripe I have is with the switch, it is not positive enough, and you have to fiddle around with it in order to get the light to stay on. Other than that, the initial review is for 4 stars. How long the product lasts - only time will tell.
By Ian on Jun 19, 2019
Brilliant product
Verified Purchase
We are really pleased with the little lights we bought, so much so that we have now bought an additional 40 on top of the original 16 and will shortly be placing an order for another 20 to complete our project. The lights are a perfect brightness for what we wanted and they are exactly as advertised. Really happy with The Solar Centre and look forward to using this very efficient company again in the near future.

Great
Verified Purchase
They look ok The most expensive mini solar lights I have bought so far but I was hoping they last. As in a few other reviews the light switch is fiddly when you turn them on and some have switched off again. If they stay on they look great . Stake seems airtight and sturdy will have to see over time , I have had issues with other solar lights filling up with ants .nice and bright at night which is what I wanted .

I love these lights. They stay on all night. A little fiddly to switch on to the correct setting but once it’s done, do it at night, fiddle until they come on and then they work beautifully. Great price and good quality.

Not value for Money at all
Verified Purchase
I have waited to give a review and I am glad I did. I purchased 12 of these in Aug 2017 as I want all matching along the path area in my garden. At first glance they look very nice and modern. However they can rust very easily so I coated them in grease to help prolong the look, I even put them away in the winter when the weather is really bad and daylight is reduced. The solar tops themselves are awful, the switch from P, S and Off is extremely temperamental to the point you have to fiddle with it to get a response. Out of the 12 I purchased only 5 tops still work all the others will not charge or the led does not come on properly. With replacement tops that are far from reliable at over £6 each you are better buying ones from your local superstore or garden centre at half the price which will last just as long or longer. Which I will have to do now that 7 do not work. Very disappointing to say the least.
By Simon Joynes on Apr 15, 2019
Look good and work well
Verified Purchase
As an architect I am keen to use solar lighting. Have 4 of these dotted around the garden. They work really amongst the flowers and greenery.!! The only tip I would give when trying to get them into harder ground is to do a little preparatory hole to prevent obstruction of the spikes the lights sit on. Used a long screwdriver!! Would recommend them.
By Marcus Harwood on Apr 13, 2019
They work !
Verified Purchase
These have been put along a west facing bank and although they are not over bright they do stay on for around five hours and they look really good. I have had other lights that have been very pricey which haven’t worked at all so I am really pleased with these.
By Sara on Apr 10, 2019
Bought some more!
Verified Purchase
I now have three sets of these lights and have already left a review for the first set I bought. So far so good. I have them all set at the power saving mode and they produce a nice light throughout the night. I ordered these as they are made for UK use and I'm hoping they will last a bit longer than previous solar lights I've bought recently. I think that living near the coast takes its toll on solar lights with the stakes and innards rusting quickly. I contacted the Solar Centre before buying more to discuss their suitability and whether I should leave them out all winter. They were very helpful. And, for those of you wondering whether you should bring them inside during winter, in my situation the answer was yes.

Work like a dream
Verified Purchase
I bought two sets of mini London solar post lights and also the Canterbury lights to fix to the fence. They are great. Even in the winter they can last all night (you get the option to switch to a winter mode where they put out slightly less light but work for longer). They are extremely bright and do a fantastic job of lighting the bottom end of the garden. I would definitely recommend them, and also the company. I had an issue with one of the lights and it was resolved very quickly. Their customer service is excellent. Am moving house soon and will definitely be purchasing more lights.
By Linda on Mar 20, 2019

Lovely post lights. Well made. Great that you have the choice of brightness. Arrived promptly and well packaged. Apart from the first ever solar light I bought, no other purchase since has lasted longer than 2 years without rusting or getting waterlogged. I hope that by buying products made for the UK market that these solar lights will compete with my first ever purchase. Will be back for more in that case!

This is the third set of solar lights that I have ordered,the first two previous were Selene twin spotlights which are very good,I have a north facing rear garden and they are still giving off light in the depth of winter till morning ,but I wanted something more stylish to border a stepping stone path in my front garden so I ordered two sets of the London mini lights .They are exactly what I wanted but as yet they are only on for a short time,as since I got them the sun has hardly shone here's hoping!

Our second set
Verified Purchase
Bought a set of these last July and they have been really great. We still have some of the cheaper lights you find in the supermarkets and garden centres but they rarely last more than a year, even though all our lights are bought in and stored for the winter months. Decided to get another set of the Mini Londons as they do last well and are much more reliable. The light output is so much better too - bright white (even on the power saving setting) compared to the cheap lights' dull yellow. What's really good too is that if a top fails, it can be replaced.

The solar lights in my garden were not all working. One or two were broken but some simply not charging enough as they were not in direct sunlight. I ordered a set of 4 of these lights to see what they were like and if they would work better. Arrived quickly, well packaged and installed easily. The two brightness settings meant even in the shady part of the garden they stayed lit for hours. Ordered another 3 sets to completely replace what I had and they look good and all work well

Look good, arrived quickly, however 1 of the 4 posts doesn't work. Been told I will be provided a replacement but not yet received. Hopefully then it'll be a 4 out of 4 rather than a slightly incomplete 3

Very nice lights
Verified Purchase
Ordered 4 to light up my drive arrived very quickly and well packaged. Very smart looking and simple to install Fully charged before use and since then have been excellent and very bright right through the night. Only issue is that it needs to be quite dark before they come on would have liked them to come on as light is fading and perhaps need them less through the night. Hope they work as well during winter when less light during the day

The Best!
Verified Purchase
We have wasted so much money over the years trying to find solar lights for round the edge of the lawn, & all of them have 1 or 2 that don’t come on at all, come on so dimly you can hardly see them, have a supposedly rechargeable battery that just doesn’t, only last a few weeks, or a combination of these.. The Solar Centre Mini post lights work brilliantly, and look really elegant. The Live Chat (I spoke with Suzie) facility was more than helpful also. I bought 3 sets of the Mini London Post for my husband for Fathers’ Day, & he’s so impressed that he wants some more for his birthday. They really are lovely!

I now have three sets of these lights. I was so impressed with the first set that I bought two more. They worked from the very first time I set them up in the garden. I have many other sets of solar lights purchased from you because so far I haven't found anything that matches the quality. I have bought a lot of solar lights in the past which have given up after a short time. My daughter thinks I'm a solar light addict. I would recommend these to anyone who wants solar lights in their garden and yourselves as the suppliers because your customer service is fantastic. I always buy when you have offers but have paid full price as well. Thanks for a really great product. Who knows I may just have to buy one more set!!

Well impressed by these. Came fully charged so didn't have to worry about the sunlight before I was able to test them. The light level is amazing. Far brighter than I expected. I especially like the the fact that as and when the light unit fails, which judging by previous items I have purchased will be some years away you don't have to buy a complete new bunch of lights you can simply purchase a new light unit that fits on the top of the light. Good thinking. Excellent product

Great lights!
Verified Purchase
What a find! These lights have been excellent. Originally purchased two sets of four, and have recently bought another set for the front garden. The design is sleek and minimalist, and the smaller size is great for edging a planted bed. These look a lot more expensive than they are (some more expensive lights I've found can just look plasticky and "cheap"), and setup is a doddle - literally flick a switch and stick them in the ground. The light is very bright (impressively so from the teeny single LED light inside). Even in overcast conditions they seem to charge themselves enough each day. Definitely recommend.

Three of these worked on the first evening after unpackaging, but the 4th not until it had had a day outside first. For the first few days they only stayed on for a couple of hours so they were not on when we came home after an evening out. However after a few days they seem to be staying on right into the night, giving a good light, regardless of whether the weather has been sunny or gloomy, so fingers crossed....

Driveway edge lights
Verified Purchase
Good build quality and look more expensive than the price. Light adequate on reduced power setting to indicate edge of driveway in the dark and usually lasts for at least 6 hours. Brighter setting lasts about half the time depending on how bright it was during the day. Only been using the lights for 2 weeks but the guaranteed replacement if any fail is reassuring. Good value and would recommend them.

We bought these to provide some extra light for our driveway as we live in a very rural spot.

Nice looking, but perhaps would expect to last lon
Verified Purchase
I buoght an original set of these around 18 months ago. They look great and work well. However, all 4 lights have faded on the solar panel, so don't look as crisp as they did from new - probably just due to being out in the elemtents all this time. This didn't seem to affect the lights until one stopped working altogether. However, given the price and the style, I decided to buy 4 more (and can use the other 3 as spares - cheaper to buy 4 complete lights than risk having to replace the tops one at a time, which you can replace seperately from the website). Hopefully the remaining 3 old lights will last a little longer. The internals of the light have also changed, so hopefully the new one will last longer too - it's also slightly brighter on the low power mode than the old ones, but I'm only really aware of that because I know it's new - it's not a massive difference to the untrained eye). Would I like these to last longer ...Yes undoubtedly, but for the price still a very smart light that works well.

I cannot really add much to the reviews that have gone before. I purchased 8 lights 2 weeks ago and they are all working superbly. They have a very clean and modern look and appear to be well made particularly for the price. I guess the true test will be the longevity of the batteries and the quality of the plastic and stainless steel used, especially as we are now coming up to winter time. Overall first impressions, very happy with this product.

Just received my second set of Mini London Solar Post lights. So impressed with the first set so I decided to buy more. They are still on in the early hours of the morning. My neighbour thought they were running on electricity! They really are a lovely addition to the garden. One of them is now quite shaded due to summer foliage growing all around it and it is still shining away with the rest of them! They look really good during the day too and you can replace the top part too (or just switch them around to receive more light instead of moving whole post if one or two are nit getting enough light). Personally i have found these work even without full sun.

On the lower setting the solar panels generate enough energy to power the lights all through the night and look great, (despite the dull miserable weather conditions). The higher setting is impressively bright and lasts for 6 hrs, which is to be expected in these conditions.

Look Great!
Verified Purchase
Having just spent time and money improving my garden, I was after some lights to go around the new flower bed area at the bottom of my south west facing garden which is slightly shaded by fencing at the side of the garden. I was going to hard wire lights in but this was coming in at a cost. Having seen these lights online and read the numerous positive reviews, I decided to purchase some. Delivery was quick, securely packaged and set them up in the garden at 1400 hours which was very simple. As dusk approached by 2030 hours, all 4 lights were on. I decided to go for the brighter option switch instead of the eco setting as it did give more light and a look better in my opinion. I have to get up early in the morning and at 0300, 2 of the 4 lights were still alight, with the 2 which weren't being in a slightly shader area of the garden so probably didn't charge up as much. Near 2 weeks on and all lights working perfectly, look stunning both during the day and at night and certainly worth paying more for than one might from a local supermarket. Overall, definitely a good buy and I would certainly recommend from my 2 weeks experience with them.

This is the second set of these lights I have purchased. They are great for lighting up my garden path. I had a set in our kitchen garden and now I have got another set for the drive.

The suppliers website and video are an excellent place to start. The video helped me matched my expectations. If your after a searchlight, think again. These do what the video explains. I have proper mains powered lights I use to reflect off the brick walls. They are not this bright. I use the solar lights to provide low level illumination for the meandering path i have in the middle of the garden. It works to pick out the outline of the path. Pretty.

Trust your instincts!
Verified Purchase
My first experience with solar lights, and I'm quite impressed. Delivery to London was super-quick. The product is reasonably solid and well-made, unlike other cheaper versions I had seen in store. The design is simple and modern-- more fitting for a sleek, contemporary garden, perhaps, than a traditional landscape. I installed them in a sunny, South-facing garden in the South West of France and they charged in a matter of hours -- enough to work to full capacity the very first night. I wouldn't say they are as bright as other reviews suggest, but they give enough light adequately to illuminate the edges of a garden path. I would describe the quality of light as 'pure white' -- not particularly warm, but also not cold steely blue white. As a novice, this website inspired confidence and gave me the impression I was purchasing from the best. If you feel the same, trust your instincts!

Had these installed for a week now and so far, touch wood, they are working beautifully. The garden path is now lit up like a runway they are that bright! As for lasting 8 hours, I can't tell, although I did come home in the early hours of one morning and they were still going strong so looks promising. Although a little pricier than some solar lights that you can get, I would much rather pay a little more and get top quality. Would definitely recommend these solar lights to anyone interested in buying solar lights.

This is the 3rd set of these lights that I've purchased from The Solar Centre; that, in itself, should speak volumes for my satisfaction with their quality, performance and value for money. In each case, I've not made use of the spike; instead, I cut each off, drilled a hole through the remainder of the base, and attached it to decking; I should mention that the plastic is very tough so, even with an electric saw, it takes a long time. In sum, the Mini London Post Light Set is an excellent product and doesn't disappointin any respect.

I have so many lights from this company now and none of them have disappointed. They all make my garden look beautiful and last for years. I've had these post lights (of various sizes) for over 5 years and its great to be able to replace just the top solar panel rather than have to replace the whole light (the chrome part and white tube still look like new). I keep buying more & now buy them as gifts for others as well. If ever there's a fault with a panel when new (has happened only twice & I've bought over 20 lights now), the company are excellent at replacing immediately without quibble. I wish other companies had customer service like this.

These lights have been operating well for two weeks now - they are bright enough to dimly light my front porch steps for about 8 hours from dusk to after midnight on these dark winter nights so I'm happy with them. They charge on winter daylight (often no sun for days) and expire in the small hours when it doesn't matter. Look good too. I stand them in pots so they can stand on paving and can be moved about when needed.

These lights are well made and stylish; and they were easy to install. I chose to remove the spikes and drill through the base of each spike support to mount them atop posts with a screw; this was easily achieved.

I will order again without reservation.

I have had many garden lights in the past (usually bought from garden centres) - some have failed to work from the start, others lasted a few weeks.

Mini London Solar Lights Are Excellent
Verified Purchase
I bought a box of 4 Mini London Solar Post lights after doing a lot of research on the Internet to see what was on offer. You get what you pay for, so the saying goes and that's so true when it comes to garden lights. There is a lot of tat around and so I was very pleasantly surprised when I stumbled across The Solar Centre. The lights arrived on time and were packed very well. The same afternoon I followed the instructions and "planted" them in the front garden area. I'm fortunate insofar as the front garden faces south. That evening all 4 lights came on and have been working ever since (about 12 days). They come on as soon as it's dark, stay on all night and turn themselves off in the morning. I've set them on the "P" powersaving setting which I find bright enough. That in itself is a good feature. Thanks Solar Centre.

Hi, I have to say the thought of digging trenches and burying cables was so unappealing but as a result of using the solar post lights I can banish those thoughts forever! Great lights providing effortless external light effect and looking so good. By the way the delivery was excellent bang on the appointed time, what a change from the usual we'll deliver on such and such a day between 7 am and 7 pm.

Ordered two sets of these lights. They arrived next day. Unfortunately one out of each pack do not work. The lights that do work are fantastic. Very bright and excellent quality. I called customer services and was told that two new tops would be in the post. Not received yet after a week. As I said the lights that work are really excellent quality but will have to call customer services again as replacements are needed.

I love my solar post lights, I bought 3 boxes. I have used them in my flower pots and they look so decorative in there amongst the flowers. I was admiring them last night in the garden and thought how lovely they look. We also have a seasonal pitch on a caravan site and 5 of the post lights are spaced out along the front of our caravan awning and they look gorgeous in the dark again very decorative. The light emitting from these solar posts are not super bright but they do have a lovely light coming out of them.

Misleading description!
Verified Purchase
I recently purchased the lights from the Staines branch of Notcutts. The description on the box that the lights come in states.... "The attention to detail in construction is second to none with features like corrosion resistant metal spikes setting these well apart from the run of the mill solar lighting." In fact the spikes are plastic. Step 4 of.the accompanying instructions states... "Screw the metal spike into the bottom of the light body'." Again the spikes are not metal and cannot be screwed into the light body as they are a fairly loose push fit. Although the lights are working well at present my initial experience wouldn't encourage me to buy from you again.

Cannot screw into decking
Verified Purchase
When I bought these the description on the site clearly said 'Can be spiked into lawns or screwed into decking'. However this is not the case, they only have spikes and cannot be screwed to anything with the supplied fittings. The description has since been amended, but Google's cached copy shows the original description from when I bought. Luckily there is earth close to where I intended to install them in the first place so I can use the spikes, but positioning isn't quite as good as I had wanted.

2 out of 4 failure rate
Verified Purchase
I bought these and like them but 2 out of the 4 have failed. One top was replaced under warranty but the second failed a few months out of warranty and I was pointed towards buying a replacement top at >£8. Plainly these are not built for the UK. I've tested them and it's the LEDs in the top that fail, everything else seems OK. It's a shame that a single poor quality but key component that costs pennies is the issue.

I purchased two packs (8 lights) to run along the side of my newly built house which also run along my drive. I wanted to add some light to my driveway. Having read many reviews i was apprehensive on the quality and amount of light they give. I've had them up for 4 weeks and i am pleasently suprised. Yes they are plastic but once dug into the ground you cant notice the quality. I was really impressed how much light they give out. Ive had them out in very small amounts of day light hours, and every single night - they light up perfectly. At this early stage - i have to say - i am genuinely impressed. Thank you

I had 8 mains lights that I had fitted with LED's, these blew all the fuses one night taking out the transformers and light sensors. So thought I would try solar light to see if they had improved from when I last had some.

Not Up To Advertised Quaity
I bought 8 thinking they would be a better quality than I have seen in the superstores. When delivered in a taped up black bag you couod hear rattling and upon opening one box they were all loose. I assembled them and some fitted firmly others very loose. After 3 days have switched on and they are duller than I thought they would be as they are advertised as being bright. The tops hold the water when it rains and I think they will deteriorate in winter. I have e mailed the company and Luke has been charming an assured me if there are any problems they will replace or refund during the first year so you cant be fairer than that.

Can't comment until these are in place once garden refurb is finished but sure they will be as good ad the Canterbury wall light which I purchased at the same time
By Margaret on Feb 4, 2015
Really poor and design flawed
These lights are flawed in their design. In cold weather, condensation gathers on the internal circuitry which is left open on the underside to the elements. I bought 8 and 4 have stopped working already. The response from Customer service was and a quote “These lights are not designed to work in winter and therefore may not work until march time. Unfortunately we would not be able to accept these back as unfit for purpose as we can only accept faulty lights.We can get these all back for testing if you wish but we would have to send them back if not faulty in our testing location Kind regards, Charlie Edwards” It's a shame this company doesn't advertise this on the website also. I bought them for the winter months, not for Summer when the nights and mornings are much brighter.

Very disappointing
Verified Purchase
I was impressed when the lights turned up, they look good and initially gave a good light. However, within a week the light lasted less than 2 hours and was fairly feeble even then. I turned them off for a week and got one night of good light, then back to almost nothing. They're not worth the money if you live in the north, may be OK for people with more daylight but they don't come close to what I was looking for.

A good level of light despite the challenge of this time of year's incident light levels; but it's the overall quality of the lamps that is most impressive. Their tops will not allow water to ingress, even as they age, and the metal spike is a welcome and robust presence. Their 'looks' are in our view superior to other competing products - the Mini-Londons are pricier than others but we liked the first set so much we ordered a second.

I was expecting more to be honest.
By Jon on Nov 9, 2014
OK, for the money.
These simple lights are ideal for lighting our dark pathway, in a rural location. How well they will last, only time will tell. I suspect the internal electronics will succomb to the damp, moist conditions of a UK Winter. The modular construction is not well sealed i.e. the parts are not a close fit. I have sealed up one joint with silicone. The top surface containing the solar panel is concave, so water collects and sits there. There is room for improvement.

1 | 0 I have waited to give a review and I am glad I did. I purchased 12 of these in Aug 2017 as I want all matching along the path area in my garden. At first glance they look very nice and modern. However they can rust very easily so I coated them in grease to help prolong the look, I even put them away in the winter when the weather is really bad and daylight is reduced. The solar tops themselves are awful, the switch from P, S and Off is extremely temperamental to the point you have to fiddle with it to get a response. Out of the 12 I purchased only 5 tops still work all the others will not charge or the led does not come on properly. With replacement tops that are far from reliable at over £6 each you are better buying ones from your local superstore or garden centre at half the price which will last just as long or longer. Which I will have to do now that 7 do not work. Very disappointing to say the least.

I have them all set at the power saving mode and they produce a nice light throughout the night. I ordered these as they are made for UK use and I'm hoping they will last a bit longer than previous solar lights I've bought recently. I think that living near the coast takes its toll on solar lights with the stakes and innards rusting quickly. I contacted the Solar Centre before buying more to discuss their suitability and whether I should leave them out all winter. They were very helpful. And, for those of you wondering whether you should bring them inside during winter, in my situation the answer was yes.

0 | 0 Bought a set of these last July and they have been really great. We still have some of the cheaper lights you find in the supermarkets and garden centres but they rarely last more than a year, even though all our lights are bought in and stored for the winter months. Decided to get another set of the Mini Londons as they do last well and are much more reliable. The light output is so much better too - bright white (even on the power saving setting) compared to the cheap lights' dull yellow. What's really good too is that if a top fails, it can be replaced.

The Solar Centre Mini post lights work brilliantly, and look really elegant. The Live Chat (I spoke with Suzie) facility was more than helpful also.

0 | 0 What a find! These lights have been excellent. Originally purchased two sets of four, and have recently bought another set for the front garden. The design is sleek and minimalist, and the smaller size is great for edging a planted bed. These look a lot more expensive than they are (some more expensive lights I've found can just look plasticky and "cheap"), and setup is a doddle - literally flick a switch and stick them in the ground. The light is very bright (impressively so from the teeny single LED light inside). Even in overcast conditions they seem to charge themselves enough each day. Definitely recommend.

0 | 0 I buoght an original set of these around 18 months ago. They look great and work well. However, all 4 lights have faded on the solar panel, so don't look as crisp as they did from new - probably just due to being out in the elemtents all this time. This didn't seem to affect the lights until one stopped working altogether. However, given the price and the style, I decided to buy 4 more (and can use the other 3 as spares - cheaper to buy 4 complete lights than risk having to replace the tops one at a time, which you can replace seperately from the website). Hopefully the remaining 3 old lights will last a little longer. The internals of the light have also changed, so hopefully the new one will last longer too - it's also slightly brighter on the low power mode than the old ones, but I'm only really aware of that because I know it's new - it's not a massive difference to the untrained eye). Would I like these to last longer ...Yes undoubtedly, but for the price still a very smart light that works well.

They look really good during the day too and you can replace the top part too (or just switch them around to receive more light instead of moving whole post if one or two are nit getting enough light). Personally i have found these work even without full sun.

0 | 0 Having just spent time and money improving my garden, I was after some lights to go around the new flower bed area at the bottom of my south west facing garden which is slightly shaded by fencing at the side of the garden. I was going to hard wire lights in but this was coming in at a cost. Having seen these lights online and read the numerous positive reviews, I decided to purchase some. Delivery was quick, securely packaged and set them up in the garden at 1400 hours which was very simple. As dusk approached by 2030 hours, all 4 lights were on. I decided to go for the brighter option switch instead of the eco setting as it did give more light and a look better in my opinion. I have to get up early in the morning and at 0300, 2 of the 4 lights were still alight, with the 2 which weren't being in a slightly shader area of the garden so probably didn't charge up as much. Near 2 weeks on and all lights working perfectly, look stunning both during the day and at night and certainly worth paying more for than one might from a local supermarket. Overall, definitely a good buy and I would certainly recommend from my 2 weeks experience with them.

Left switched off in the sun for a day and they are currently running till dawn , obviously this will change a bit in the winter. Running in the economy setting still gives off plenty of light.

0 | 0 The suppliers website and video are an excellent place to start. The video helped me matched my expectations. If your after a searchlight, think again. These do what the video explains. I have proper mains powered lights I use to reflect off the brick walls. They are not this bright. I use the solar lights to provide low level illumination for the meandering path i have in the middle of the garden. It works to pick out the outline of the path. Pretty.

0 | 0 My first experience with solar lights, and I'm quite impressed. Delivery to London was super-quick. The product is reasonably solid and well-made, unlike other cheaper versions I had seen in store. The design is simple and modern-- more fitting for a sleek, contemporary garden, perhaps, than a traditional landscape. I installed them in a sunny, South-facing garden in the South West of France and they charged in a matter of hours -- enough to work to full capacity the very first night. I wouldn't say they are as bright as other reviews suggest, but they give enough light adequately to illuminate the edges of a garden path. I would describe the quality of light as 'pure white' -- not particularly warm, but also not cold steely blue white. As a novice, this website inspired confidence and gave me the impression I was purchasing from the best. If you feel the same, trust your instincts!

0 | 0 Had these installed for a week now and so far, touch wood, they are working beautifully. The garden path is now lit up like a runway they are that bright! As for lasting 8 hours, I can't tell, although I did come home in the early hours of one morning and they were still going strong so looks promising. Although a little pricier than some solar lights that you can get, I would much rather pay a little more and get top quality. Would definitely recommend these solar lights to anyone interested in buying solar lights.

Good to know they're working well for you! S is standard mode and will give the brightest light output. P is for Powersaving and ideal for when the days are very short or if the lights aren't installed in a good sunny location.

0 | 0 This is the 3rd set of these lights that I've purchased from The Solar Centre; that, in itself, should speak volumes for my satisfaction with their quality, performance and value for money. In each case, I've not made use of the spike; instead, I cut each off, drilled a hole through the remainder of the base, and attached it to decking; I should mention that the plastic is very tough so, even with an electric saw, it takes a long time. In sum, the Mini London Post Light Set is an excellent product and doesn't disappointin any respect.

I've had these post lights (of various sizes) for over 5 years and its great to be able to replace just the top solar panel rather than have to replace the whole light (the chrome part and white tube still look like new). I keep buying more & now buy them as gifts for others as well. If ever there's a fault with a panel when new (has happened only twice & I've bought over 20 lights now), the company are excellent at replacing immediately without quibble. I wish other companies had customer service like this.

You get what you pay for, so the saying goes and that's so true when it comes to garden lights. There is a lot of tat around and so I was very pleasantly surprised when I stumbled across The Solar Centre. The lights arrived on time and were packed very well. The same afternoon I followed the instructions and "planted" them in the front garden area. I'm fortunate insofar as the front garden faces south. That evening all 4 lights came on and have been working ever since (about 12 days). They come on as soon as it's dark, stay on all night and turn themselves off in the morning. I've set them on the "P" powersaving setting which I find bright enough. That in itself is a good feature. Thanks Solar Centre.

0 | 0 I recently purchased the lights from the Staines branch of Notcutts. The description on the box that the lights come in states.... "The attention to detail in construction is second to none with features like corrosion resistant metal spikes setting these well apart from the run of the mill solar lighting." In fact the spikes are plastic. Step 4 of.the accompanying instructions states... "Screw the metal spike into the bottom of the light body'." Again the spikes are not metal and cannot be screwed into the light body as they are a fairly loose push fit. Although the lights are working well at present my initial experience wouldn't encourage me to buy from you again.

The problem originated from the fact that the full size London box (that features metal spikes) was used as a template for the mini London box. This wasn't spotted until the boxes had been printed and it was too late to sort it out. If you're unhappy with the plastic spikes please get in touch and we'll make sure you're looked after.

1 | 0 When I bought these the description on the site clearly said 'Can be spiked into lawns or screwed into decking'. However this is not the case, they only have spikes and cannot be screwed to anything with the supplied fittings. The description has since been amended, but Google's cached copy shows the original description from when I bought. Luckily there is earth close to where I intended to install them in the first place so I can use the spikes, but positioning isn't quite as good as I had wanted.

Many thanks for your review Greg and for pointing out the mistake on the page. We corrected the description as soon as you pointed it out to us. Your lights are from a brand new batch of stock received late last week so you were the first to make us aware of the discrepancy. Please rest assured if you can't use your lights as intended we'd be happy to fully refund or alternatively swap them out for their bigger brothers that do have the option to be screwed down.

Thanks for your comments Dan and sorry you were let down by the delivery. Having tried all the UK couriers we use DPD / Interlink as they provide the best service by some considerable margin. That's not to say they're perfect and we'll be taking up your case with them to ensure this doesn't happen again.

0 | 0 I bought these and like them but 2 out of the 4 have failed. One top was replaced under warranty but the second failed a few months out of warranty and I was pointed towards buying a replacement top at >£8. Plainly these are not built for the UK. I've tested them and it's the LEDs in the top that fail, everything else seems OK. It's a shame that a single poor quality but key component that costs pennies is the issue.

1 | 0 These lights do not last very long. The firm have been very good and replaced several under guarantee but I now have only one working and six faulty ones. I have given up with getting replacements as they have all failed as well. The large solar post lights I bought have been perfect so it must just be the smaller size.

1 | 0 I purchased two packs (8 lights) to run along the side of my newly built house which also run along my drive. I wanted to add some light to my driveway. Having read many reviews i was apprehensive on the quality and amount of light they give. I've had them up for 4 weeks and i am pleasently suprised. Yes they are plastic but once dug into the ground you cant notice the quality. I was really impressed how much light they give out. Ive had them out in very small amounts of day light hours, and every single night - they light up perfectly. At this early stage - i have to say - i am genuinely impressed. Thank you

3 | 1 I had 8 mains lights that I had fitted with LED's, these blew all the fuses one night taking out the transformers and light sensors. So thought I would try solar light to see if they had improved from when I last had some. Very impressed with the lights when fitted in the garden so intended to order a second set but found the price had now increased. Set a request asking for the same price on a second set but still waiting for a reply. Richard Mills

1 | 0 Not very mini; more like large. Alright for time being to light dark pathway. Only had them a week so a bit early to comment. Not at all well sealed so suspect damp will get in. A bit disappointed on construction and size of the things; because they were advertised as mini I thought they would be a little less intrusive. I dread to think what the size of the standard London lights are.

2 | 0 I bought 8 thinking they would be a better quality than I have seen in the superstores. When delivered in a taped up black bag you couod hear rattling and upon opening one box they were all loose. I assembled them and some fitted firmly others very loose. After 3 days have switched on and they are duller than I thought they would be as they are advertised as being bright. The tops hold the water when it rains and I think they will deteriorate in winter. I have e mailed the company and Luke has been charming an assured me if there are any problems they will replace or refund during the first year so you cant be fairer than that.

0 | 0 These lights are flawed in their design. In cold weather, condensation gathers on the internal circuitry which is left open on the underside to the elements. I bought 8 and 4 have stopped working already. The response from Customer service was and a quote “These lights are not designed to work in winter and therefore may not work until march time. Unfortunately we would not be able to accept these back as unfit for purpose as we can only accept faulty lights.We can get these all back for testing if you wish but we would have to send them back if not faulty in our testing location Kind regards, Charlie Edwards” It's a shame this company doesn't advertise this on the website also. I bought them for the winter months, not for Summer when the nights and mornings are much brighter.

4 | 0 I was impressed when the lights turned up, they look good and initially gave a good light. However, within a week the light lasted less than 2 hours and was fairly feeble even then. I turned them off for a week and got one night of good light, then back to almost nothing. They're not worth the money if you live in the north, may be OK for people with more daylight but they don't come close to what I was looking for.

3 | 0 A good level of light despite the challenge of this time of year's incident light levels; but it's the overall quality of the lamps that is most impressive. Their tops will not allow water to ingress, even as they age, and the metal spike is a welcome and robust presence. Their 'looks' are in our view superior to other competing products - the Mini-Londons are pricier than others but we liked the first set so much we ordered a second.

6 | 0 These simple lights are ideal for lighting our dark pathway, in a rural location. How well they will last, only time will tell. I suspect the internal electronics will succomb to the damp, moist conditions of a UK Winter. The modular construction is not well sealed i.e. the parts are not a close fit. I have sealed up one joint with silicone. The top surface containing the solar panel is concave, so water collects and sits there. There is room for improvement.
