Key Features & Specifications
Durability & Performance
Engineered for longevity, these solar festoons feature a heavy-duty, UV-stabilised cable and shatterproof LED bulbs to withstand the rigours of outdoor use. Unlike standard fairy lights, our system utilises a dual-battery backup and a high-grade solar collector to ensure consistent brightness and stability, even during shorter winter days. The 2500K colour temperature is specifically selected to provide a cosy, high-end aesthetic that enhances the natural beauty of your landscape.
Ideal Application
The perfect fit for illuminating alfresco dining areas, wrapping around balcony railings, or adding a festive touch to camping setups and off-grid events. Their robust design also makes them an excellent choice for small commercial displays, such as pop-up bars and outdoor market stalls.
Bring a touch of magic to your evenings with a sustainable, enchanting glow that never fades.
Solar festoon lights work by converting sunlight into electricity through a solar panel. During the day, the solar panel charges a built-in rechargeable battery. A light sensor activates the lights when it gets dark, running on the stored battery power. Our solar festoon lights feature a 15-meter string with 15 LED bulbs powered by a solar panel with a 3-meter lead, allowing you to position the panel in an optimal sunlight location while placing the lights where you want them.
On a full charge, our solar festoon lights will illuminate for 6-8 hours. If the following day is overcast with limited sunlight, the lights can still provide approximately 3-4 hours of illumination from the partial charge received. The actual runtime depends on several factors, including the lighting mode selected (steady vs. flashing), the dimming feature used, and the amount of sunlight received during charging.
Yes, the Solra string features an IP65 weatherproof rating, meaning it is fully protected against heavy rain, wind, and dust. They are specifically engineered to withstand the Australian and New Zealand climate for year-round outdoor display.
Our solar festoon lights use 1W LED bulbs that produce 80 lumens each. While this is less than some mains-powered festoon lights, the warm white light creates a cozy, ambient glow perfect for creating an atmosphere in gardens and outdoor spaces. The light output balances energy efficiency with adequate brightness for decorative lighting. Multiple strings can be used together for areas requiring brighter illumination, though each operates independently.
Our solar festoon lights feature a USB charging input on the solar panel. This allows you to charge the lights directly from a power source when sunlight is limited or when you must ensure the lights are fully charged for a specific event. Simply connect a standard USB charger to the input connector on the solar panel. This dual-charging capability ensures your lights can operate reliably regardless of weather conditions.
While direct sunlight provides the most efficient charging, our solar festoon lights can still charge with indirect sunlight or even artificial light, though at a reduced rate. For optimal performance, we recommend placing the solar panel in a location that receives at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily. If sunlight is limited, the USB charging option lets you charge the battery directly from a power source, ensuring your lights work even during cloudy weather.
Our solar festoon lights offer four distinct lighting modes to create different atmospheres:
These modes can be selected using either the included remote control or the buttons on the back of the solar panel.
These units are designed as standalone sets to ensure the solar panel provides maximum power and brightness to the LEDs. For larger areas, we recommend placing multiple solar panels side by side to achieve a seamless, brilliant lighting effect without overloading a single circuit.
Our solar festoon lights require approximately 6-8 hours of good sunlight to reach a full charge. If using the USB charging option, the charging time is similar. For first-time use or after extended storage, we recommend charging the lights for a full day before use to ensure maximum battery capacity and performance.
While performance is best in direct sunlight, our high-efficiency panels are optimised to harvest energy even during overcast conditions. You may notice a slightly shorter run time in mid-winter, but the automatic sensor ensures they still illuminate as soon as dusk falls.

Loving these lights for our outdoor tree!
The mix between the festoon bulbs and wired lights - really make it sing!
The Solar lights have a good size solar panel and look really good lit up. We are happy with them.
Hello Julie,
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for the stunning photo. We’re delighted that you’re happy with your festoon lights.
Our 15m solar string lights couldn’t have been easier to set up and they work perfectly for our space. We have them strung around our fire pit area and they throw just enough light to enable us to eat around the fire but not enough to disturb our view of the stars. They come on automatically when the sun goes down and have finished off our space perfectly.
Hello Renee,
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback and for the stunning photo. We’re delighted that you’re enjoying your new Solar festoon lights. Have a great day!
Easy to set up and looks amazing. Definitely will be buying more
Hi Amie! Thank you so much for the positive review. We're thrilled to hear that our Solar String Fairy Lights were easy to set up! We hope they add a warm and cozy touch to your outdoor space. Happy decorating!
Bought 5 sets to line our driveway fence on our farm. Easily charged with USB. Excellent quality and very easily to install. Even cable ties were included. They lit up beautifully upon dark. Would highly recommend.
Hi Kelly! Thank you for your glowing review of our Solar Festoon Lights. We are so happy to hear that you found them to be excellent quality and easy to install. It's great to know that they lit up beautifully for you and that you would highly recommend them. We truly appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy the lights on your farm.

These are fabulous. Bought them on sale! Good amount of light and they add to the aesthetic.
Hi Emily, thank you for your wonderful feedback! 😊 We’re thrilled to hear that you love the lights and got them at a great price! Enjoy the perfect blend of brightness and aesthetics. 💡✨
Very happy with these lights. Important to note they are IP65 rated which means they will last in an outdoor environment. All NZ suppliers I found supply poor quality IP44 rated lights, that can handle a little rain - but won’t last outdoors over time. Worth paying a little more for this superior quality!

Had an issue with my festoon solar lights, liquid leds were more than happy to send out a replacement to resolve the issue.
Great company to deal with
Hi David,
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're delighted to know that the issue was swiftly resolved. Your trust in LiquidLEDs means a lot. Have great day!
These fairy string lights aren’t good. When the solar power fades they flash. They replaced and sent a new solar box for them but it is the same problem. We’ve had solar fairy lights for years and have never come across this. The shop also said they’ve never had this feedback but it’s the same issue with the replacement solar part so it’s clearly a fault with the design. They also only last a couple of hours and the flashing begins early into the evening, around 9pm after a 7pm sunset.
We’re throwing them away. A waste of money.
Hi Angelique, it seems there is an issue with how you have set up the solar panel. When the panel is facing the North, it will usually produce the most significant energy output. That's because Australia is in the southern hemisphere, and the sun is mainly directed from the north. Since your panel is not correctly positioned, the batteries do not fully charge; hence the bulbs only last a few hours. ---
The bulbs will flicker briefly to notify us that the battery is depleted. This happens just before the bulbs are turned off. Similar notifications occur on most battery-operated devices, such as mobile phones and watches, where the battery icon would start to flash just before the device is turned off. If you need any other help, please do not hesitate to contact us.
I was very impressed with the prompt delivery(2 days after ordered to Brisbane) and the quality of the products. I would highly recommend this company and intend ordering more lights in the future

Got these lights for our pergola. Very nice. Bright enough but not too bright creating a nice warm glow. Will stay on all night but keep in mind lights may flicker when battery starts running low. Quality looks good and we really hope the plastic solar panel will last for a long time in the scorching sun. Small issue with product swiftly fixed by Liquid LEDs. Thumbs up!
