Solar sensor lights pair free solar power with motion detection for wire-free security and convenience. They charge by day and trigger bright light the moment movement is detected at night — no electrician, no trenching and no running costs. The Lighting Outlet stocks only trusted solar brands built to handle the Australian climate.
How far can a solar sensor light detect motion?Most detect movement from around 5–12 metres, depending on the model and mounting height.
Do they stay on all night or only when triggered?Many offer both — a low ambient glow all night that boosts to full brightness when motion is detected, which also conserves battery.
Will a solar sensor light work on a shaded wall?The light can go in shade if you choose a model with a separate solar panel, which you mount where it gets direct sun.
Are solar sensor lights bright enough for security?Yes — choose a 300+ lumen model (security floods go far higher) for effective deterrence.
