Solar Lights

Cycles through hypnotic colours

You've probably seen solar-powered lights before, particularly if you're a Firebox regular. But we bet you've never seen ones like these. Why? Well for starters Solar Lights gently cycle through various hypnotic colours - perfect for your ever-changing moods. Better still they float. You heard, they float!

This means you can plop them in your pond or swimming pool. And if you haven't got a pool we suggest you start digging because the effect of a few Solar Lights bobbing around on shimmering water is quite mesmerising.

Solar Lights

Attractive spherical
styling

With their attractive spherical styling and durable waterproof casing, Solar Lights are specifically designed for outdoor use. They even feature a handy hoop so you can hang them from parasols and branches. If you're looking to add a touch of magic to summer evenings al fresco, Solar Lights are perfect. Simply dot them around your borders or under your favourite plants and the whole garden is transformed into an enchanting wonderland of colourful, gently glowing light.

As well as a colour-changing LED, each Solar Light contains a NiCad battery and solar panel. Just allow the panel to soak up a few rays and you'll never have to faff around with candles again. Besides, who can be bothered with all that wick-trimming business? Not us, because throwing an outdoor soiree is hectic enough without having to play hunt-the-tealights. And that's before they get blown out by a gust of wind.

Solar Lights

Handy

Even if you haven't got much of a garden, Solar Lights are well worth investing in, as they look great on windowsills or hanging in porches. Failing that you can wear them as comedy Pat Butcher-style earrings at your next office Christmas bash. Or maybe not. The point is, when it comes to adding atmosphere to your garden, Solar Lights are infinitely more versatile and convenient than candles, lanterns or any other outdoor light you'd care to think of. So get ordering - it's a kind of magic!

visitor avatar We have had three of these lights in our garden for years and we love them. They add a lot of cool to our patch....
Ben, Portsmouth - 15th May 2008
visitor avatar I'm really interested in these lights but I would rather not have the color change. Can you remove or disable the color disk?
Bonnie, Memphis - 12th June 2007
Firebox says: I am afraid not Bonnie, you know you love the colour really!
visitor avatar Very nice and look grand in the pond - but make sure you turn them on before you throw them in, as it was a real pain to fish them out when I realized my mistake! Nice product, great for a civilised evening out.
Darran Taylor, Reading, Berks - 1st June 2007
visitor avatar These are lovely. The colour change is great and they look brilliant hanging in a tree.
