Where can I buy Malibu solar lights model lz422w ?

My first comment would be, Please don’t buy solar lights. They are expensive, cheaply constructed and don’t put out enough light. Solar technology has not progressed enough yet for good solar landscape lights.If you really want some of what you specified then below is a link to where you can get some. You could get a set of malibu low voltage lights for much less money and they will put out much more light.

I am sure that you can put solar garden lights in your "check in" luggage if you are flying.

I am not sure if you can buy them locally.

Where can I buy reasonably priced solar garden lights to fix on top of fenceposts?

I have seen these lights earlier in the year. They have a 4inch square base to fit over the top of the fenceposts and are around £20 – £25 for a set of four.

Have you tried B&Q, or try and google them.

How can I brighten dim solar lights?

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Ok, so I bought solar lights from my neighborhood Walmart and they looked great, but after a few months, the light started to get dimmer and dimmer. They haven’t been moved since I put them in, they get sunlight all day long. I saw light bulbs and batteries for them but I was unsure if this will fix my problem. Will changing the bulb or the batteries in my solar lights make them glow brighter? Thanks!

Those type of individual solar landscapr lights are not real bright to begin with. As the batteries get older they hold less charge, so the lights get dimmer. Instaling new batteries will get back the brightness they had when they were new. You must use the same type of rechargeble batteries. Check them, they may be NI-CAD. They are available.

why are some solar powered lights with seperate solar panel?

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

does anyone know why you can buy solar lights with built in solar panel and others come with large seperate solar panel with wire?does it mean the ones with seperate solar panel will be more powerful i.e brighter?

They may be more powerful, but it could just be the design, or a lower cost modification that a manufacturer has made, from a mains powered type, to make it run off solar.

Sometimes the panels are larger, and can generate more power. But youll need to check the specifications of the light as well as the batteries. I often improve the light shining hours by adding alternative rechargeable batteries, with a higher spec type, as they often ship with basic cheap batteries. It’s easy to double the light hours this way, often at little cost.

But youre right first to focus on the spec of the panel charger, as whether it charges a lot or not will determine how long your battery can run the light for. Some products show clear details, though others dont – I steer clear of poorly labelled products, as I like to know what Im buying. Check also the type of battery it uses too, as many use AA type etc, which can be bought reasonably cheaply, if you want to ‘upgrade’ the lit hours of your light. Charge them first in a charger if possible, to give then a complete charge.

Hope this helps. Good luck! Rob
