- How tall is it and how much area does it light?
- It stands 29.8 inches tall with a 4.7-inch-wide head. The height spreads light over a wider patch of ground than short stake lights, but it is a marker light, not a floodlight.
- Does it need direct sunlight?
- Yes, the panel needs several hours of direct sun to charge the battery for a full night. In heavy shade or short winter days, expect dimmer or shorter run time.
- Is installation difficult?
- No. It stakes into the ground, so there is no wiring or trenching. Pick a spot with firm soil and full sun, and space units along the path.
- How many do I need for a walkway?
- Each unit has one light, so plan on one every 6 to 10 feet along a path for even coverage. A typical front walk takes four to six.
- Can it stay out in rain and snow?
- It is built for outdoor ground mounting, so normal rain is fine. In deep snow or prolonged freezing, the battery holds less charge and run time drops.
- Where is the Lutec's Solar LED Pathway Lights cheapest?
