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.
