Product details

Everything about this product

Solarkugel-Laterne

Solar Glow

Solarkugel-Laterne

Eine runde, durchbrochene Metalllaterne, die sich bei Tageslicht auflädt und in der Dämmerung einen sanften Flammeneffekt erzeugt. Das eingebaute Solarpanel versorgt eine wiederaufladbare Zelle mit Strom, während ein Lichtsensor die Laterne nachts einschaltet und bei Sonnenaufgang ausschaltet. Die ausgeschnittene Kugel streut warmes, gemustertes Licht auf Terrassen, Wege und Gartenbeete, ganz ohne Kabel, Wachs oder offene Flammen.

Durchbrochener Ball, Wetterfest

Metallrahmen

Durchbrochener Ball, Wetterfest

Die Solar-Kerzenkugel-Laterne besteht aus einer durchbrochenen Metallkugel, die mit einem feinen Muster versehen ist. Tagsüber lädt das integrierte Solarpanel die Zelle auf; nachts wirft die warme LED dieses ausgeschnittene Muster auf nahegelegene Oberflächen. Der Metallrahmen hält in den wärmeren Monaten auf der Terrasse, am Balkongeländer oder an einem Gartenhaken dem Wetter im Freien stand.

Aufhängen oder hinstellen

Aufhängen oder hinstellen

In einem Garten platziert, kann die Solar-Kerzenkugel-Laterne auf einem Tisch stehen, an einer Reling befestigt oder an einem Hirtenstab über einem Weg hängen. Die LED mit Flammeneffekt erzeugt das warme Aussehen von Kerzenlicht ohne Rauch oder Flamme, beleuchtet eine Terrasse, einen Balkon oder einen Gehweg nach Sonnenuntergang und schaltet sich bei Sonnenaufgang wieder aus, Nacht für Nacht die ganze Saison über.

Why this product

Why people choose it

  • 1

    Solar Charged

    A small solar panel on top of the flame effect tea light charges through daylight, so there are no cords, plugs or disposable batteries to manage.

  • 2

    Openwork Metal Ball

    The cut out wire cage frame scatters patterned shadows across a table, a fence post or a garden bed once the light comes on at night.

  • 3

    Flame Effect Candle

    The LED flickers like a real candle flame with no smoke, wax or open fire, so it sits safely near plants, fabric and timber.

  • 4

    Dusk To Dawn Sensor

    A built in light sensor switches the glow on by itself at nightfall and off again at sunrise, so there is nothing to press.

How it works

How to set it up outside

  • Charge it in daylight
    1

    Charge it in daylight

    Set the lantern where the solar panel on the tea light catches a few hours of direct daylight. There is nothing to plug in. The panel tops up the cell through the day so it is ready to glow by evening.

  • Hang it or set it down
    2

    Hang it or set it down

    Clip the chain and hook over a branch, a shepherd hook, a pergola beam or a rail, or lift the chain off and rest the metal ball on a table, a windowsill or a garden wall.

  • Let the sensor do the rest
    3

    Let the sensor do the rest

    A built in light sensor switches the flame effect glow on by itself at dusk and off again at sunrise. There is no switch to press and no timer to set, so it just lights up each evening.

  • Wipe it now and then
    4

    Wipe it now and then

    Open the two halves of the ball, lift out the tea light and wipe the panel and the metal frame with a soft cloth so the glow stays clear. Bring it in over harsh winter weather to keep it fresh.

Benefits

Soft light, nothing to manage

  • A glow that runs itself

    The solar panel charges the tea light through the day and a dusk to dawn sensor lights it at nightfall and rests it at sunrise, so there are no cords, no batteries and nothing to switch.

  • Patterned light from the ball

    The openwork metal cage scatters a soft lattice of shadow across a table, a wall or a fence once the LED comes on, so the lantern reads as a garden detail rather than a plain lamp.

  • Candle look, no flame

    The LED flickers warmly like a real candle but with no smoke, wax or open fire, so it sits safely near plants, fabric and timber where a real candle would be a risk.

  • Hang it or stand it

    Each ball comes with a chain and hook to hang it from a branch, hook or rail, and the chain lifts off so you can rest the ball on any flat surface instead.

  • One or a whole set

    Choose a single ball for a doorway or windowsill, or a set of four to line a path, hang a row along a pergola or cluster a warm pool of light on the patio table.

FAQ

Questions before checkout

Does it need batteries or a plug?
No. The flame effect tea light has a small solar panel on top that charges from daylight and stores power in a rechargeable cell, so there is nothing to plug in and no disposable batteries to swap. Set it where it gets a few hours of direct sun through the day and it powers itself for the evening.
When does it turn on?
A built in light sensor reads the sky and switches the lantern on by itself at dusk, then off again at sunrise. There is no switch to press and no timer to set. Once it has charged through the day it lights up on its own each evening and rests through the morning.
Is it a real flame?
No. The candle look comes from a flickering LED, so there is no smoke, no wax and no open fire. That makes it safe to hang near plants, fabric and timber where a real candle would be a risk, while it still gives the warm, moving glow of candlelight across the garden at night.
Can I hang it outdoors?
Yes. Each ball comes with a chain and hook, so you can hang it from a tree branch, a shepherd hook, a pergola beam or a balcony rail. You can also lift the chain off and rest the ball on a table, a windowsill or a garden wall. The metal frame is made to stay outside through the season.
How big is the lantern?
The openwork ball is about the size of a tennis ball, roughly eight to nine centimetres across, and it holds a standard flame effect tea light. The chain adds extra length for hanging. It is sized to cluster a few together on a table or to line several along a path without looking bulky.
How do I put the tea light in?
The metal ball opens into two halves on a small hinge. Open it, drop the solar flame effect tea light into the cup at the base with the panel facing up, then close the two halves. The chain clips to the top so you can hang it, or you can leave the chain off and stand the ball on a flat surface.
What can I do with a set of four?
A set of four lets you line a path, hang a row along a fence or pergola, or cluster them on an outdoor table for a soft pool of light. Because each ball is self contained and solar charged, you can spread them wherever they catch daylight, with no cords to link them or hide.
Will it last outside in the rain?
The metal ball frame is made for outdoor use through the warmer months on a patio, balcony or in a garden bed. As with most solar garden lights, give the tea light a wipe now and then and bring it in over harsh winter weather to keep the panel and cell in good shape for the next season.

Review summary

Customers describe the Solar Candle Ball Lantern as a soft, charming way to light a garden in the evening, with the flickering flame effect glow and the patterned shadows from the openwork ball drawing the most comments. Many like that it charges in the sun and switches on by itself at dusk, so there is nothing to plug in or remember. Reviewers hang them from trees, pergolas and shepherd hooks or cluster them on patio tables, and several bought the set of four to line a path. A few note it is best brought in over harsh winter weather.

Marit S.Verified Purchase

Soft glow with no fuss

I hung three of these from the apple tree and they come on by themselves once it gets dark. The flickering looks just like real tea lights but I never have to light anything. They charged up the first day in the sun and have lit every evening since.

Three under the apple tree sounds lovely, Marit. The automatic dusk glow is exactly the point of this one.

Joren V.Verified Purchase

Patterned shadows are gorgeous

The openwork ball throws this lovely lattice of shadow on the fence behind it. Bought the set of four and lined them along the deck rail. No cords to hide which was the main thing for me. Really pleased with how they look at night.

Annika R.Verified Purchase

Charming little lanterns

These are smaller than I pictured, about the size of a tennis ball, but that turned out just right for clustering on the patio table. The warm flicker is cosy. They charge fine even on a cloudy day and switch on at dusk on their own.

Stefan H.Verified Purchase

No wiring, just hang and go

What sold me was no plug and no batteries to buy. I clipped them onto the pergola beams and they have been lighting up every evening. The metal cage feels solid and the tea light drops in and out easily for a wipe. Great value in the set of four.

Glad the no wiring part won you over, Stefan. The pergola is a perfect spot for a row of these.

Lieke D.Verified Purchase

Looks magic at dusk

Right as the garden goes dark these flicker on by themselves and it looks magical. I have them on shepherd hooks down the path. The candle effect is warm and moving, not a flat steady light, which is what I wanted. So easy to live with.

Rasmus K.Verified Purchase

Cosy and safe near the plants

I like that there is no real flame so I can hang them right by the climbing plants and the wooden fence without worrying. The flicker is convincing. They take a good day of sun to charge fully but then glow all evening. Happy with them.

Carine B.Verified Purchase

Lovely on the balcony rail

My balcony is small so I clipped two onto the rail and they give the nicest soft light at night. No socket needed which is ideal up here. The little solar panel sits on top of the tea light and tops up during the day. Would buy again.

A pair on the balcony rail is a great use of a small space, Carine. Thank you for the kind words.

Tomasz W.Verified Purchase

Set of four lined the path

Bought four to light the path to the back gate. They come on together at dusk and the patterned glow guides you down nicely. The chains make them easy to move if I want them on the table instead. No cables anywhere, exactly what I hoped for.

Heidi M.Verified Purchase

Pretty and practical

These do exactly what they say. Charge in the sun, light up at dark, switch off in the morning. I keep one on the outdoor table and hang one over the door. The flicker is warm and the metal ball looks smart even off during the day.

Brilliant for evenings outside

We sit out most warm evenings and these have become part of it. They glow on their own once the sun drops and last the whole evening. The openwork ball casts a soft pattern on the wall behind. Solid little lanterns and no running cost at all.

Sounds like the perfect evening setup, Gauthier. Glad they have earned a place on your patio.
