{"product_id":"orchard-lantern-co-solar-net-light-for-hedges","title":"Orchard Lantern Co Solar Net Light for Hedges","description":"\u003cp\u003eA two metre by two metre net rather than a string, which is much faster to throw over a clipped hedge or a topiary ball and far more even.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSolar garden lighting has a reputation it mostly deserves, and the reason is almost always the cell rather than the light. A cheap solar light uses a 400mAh nickel metal hydride cell that is finished after eighteen months. Everything we sell uses a lithium iron phosphate cell of at least 2000mAh, rated for around two thousand charge cycles, and every one of them is user replaceable with a standard cell you can buy anywhere. The panel is monocrystalline rather than amorphous, which collects roughly twice as much on a grey day, and the controller holds a steady output until the cell is nearly flat instead of fading from the moment the sun goes down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: see the product name for the length or the pack quantity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: polycarbonate, glass or copper wire depending on the product\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: black cable as standard, warm white output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight source: integral LED\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight output: 200 lamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour temperature: 2700K very warm white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeam angle: 360 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower: solar, integral photovoltaic panel and rechargeable cell, no wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIngress protection: IP65, jet proof, suitable for open garden use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable: 2m panel lead on a ground stake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 2 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePanel: monocrystalline on a ground stake or a clip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCell: lithium iron phosphate, replaceable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRun time: 8 to 10 hours on a full summer charge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModes: steady on, or eight effects on a button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: approximately 0.95 kilograms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x solar net light for hedges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x panel on a ground stake with a 2m lead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable clips and a hanging hook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x replaceable lithium iron phosphate cell, already fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA cleaning cloth for the panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA siting card explaining what six hours of direct sun actually means\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo wiring at all. Push the spike into the ground or screw the bracket to the fence, slide the switch to on, and leave it somewhere that gets direct sun for at least six hours. That last part is what decides whether a solar light is any good or not, and it matters far more than the specification. Give it three full days of charging before you judge the run time, and clean the panel with a damp cloth twice a year because a film of pollen or algae will halve the output long before the cell wears out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen to buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSolar lighting works on the sun it received that day, so it is at its best between April and September and noticeably weaker in December. Buy it for the summer, expect less of it in winter, and if you want light on a January evening buy a 12V fitting instead. Nobody who sells solar will tell you that, and it is the single most useful thing to know about it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orchard Lantern Co","offers":[{"title":"2700K warm white","offer_id":54963432685905,"sku":"GGS-SDL-006-27","price":49.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2200K amber","offer_id":54963432718673,"sku":"GGS-SDL-006-22","price":54.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Colour changing","offer_id":54963432751441,"sku":"GGS-SDL-006-RGB","price":59.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1079\/8832\/0593\/files\/Orchard_Lantern_Co_Solar_Net_Light_for_Hedges.jpg?v=1789049936","url":"https:\/\/gardenglowshop.com\/products\/orchard-lantern-co-solar-net-light-for-hedges","provider":"Garden Glow","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
