Hi all, One of my clients is looking for small garden lights. However, he has two requirements: 1. They have to be solar-powered. 2. They need to use LED lights. At this stage, I've only found lamps that only fit into one of the requirements. If you can shed any thoughts into this, that would be great. Thanks!

"small garden lights" is too broad a catergory. Got specs for illumination levels, or at least a reasonable description of the application that they're intended for? Marking a walking path is one thing, providing enough light to party on the patio is another, enough to read the instructions of a gardening book still another.

I purchased "wired" lights, I think from Overstock or Ebay that came without bulbs, then purchased the LED bulbs separately. The lights are wired on a low-voltage system, under trees, along paths, and in shrubbery, but it's all hooked to a deep cycle battery in the basement that's charged with a solar panel on the roof of the house.

Probably a bit more involved than what your client wants, but the advantage is being able to put the lights under trees/in shadow, but still have hours and hours of light. The LED bulbs use less than a watt each, so even on a cloudy day, the battery still has plenty of juice. The battery is indoors, too, so less suceptible to freezing in winter.
