Is the remote version worth the extra $4?

Yes if the light sits high or in a spot you cannot easily reach. The remote lets you switch between AUTO and DIM-AUTO from up to 10 meters. If you only want motion-triggered light, save the $4 and take A.

Do both lights put out the same brightness?

Yes. Both are rated 1000 lumens at 6500K daylight white with three adjustable heads and a 270° lighting angle. The difference is control and mounting, not output.

Which is better for a shaded doorway?

A has the longer 16ft panel cord, so it is easier to place the panel in sun while the light sits under an eave. B's 2-in-1 mount also lets you split the panel, but its cable is about 10ft.

How long do they run on a charge?

Lepro rates B at more than 200 lighting cycles of 20 seconds after 6 hours of charging, enough for a night of motion triggers. A's runtime is not published; it charges by day and runs on motion at night.

Neither has a published lifespan beyond the LED rating. Both are IP65 and rated heat and frost resistant. One A buyer reported about 5 years from an earlier unit, which is the only durability data point here.

Can I use B without the remote?

Yes. It still turns on automatically at night when the sensor detects people or cars within 8-10 meters at a 120° angle. The remote only changes modes.

Lepro 3-Head Solar Motion Sensor Security Light with Split Panel (IP65 Waterproof) vs Lepro 3-Head Solar Motion Sensor Security Light with Remote Control & Split Panel (IP65 Waterproof)

Both lights deliver the same 1000 lumens, 6500K daylight white, three adjustable heads and a 270° lighting angle, so the real choice is the remote. The B version adds a 5-key infrared remote with AUTO and DIM-AUTO modes and a 2-in-1 mount that works integrated or split. The A version is the simpler light and costs less: $25.99 at Amazon as of November 4, 2026, against $29.99 at Lepro US for B. Buy A if you just want motion-triggered light for the lowest price; buy B if you want to switch modes from the ground without climbing to the fixture.

Today the Lepro 3-Head Solar Motion Sensor Security Light with Split Panel (IP65 Waterproof) costs $4.00 less at its best price.
