Solar Candle Ball Lantern

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Got the set of four for my mum who loves her garden. She hung them in the magnolia and was thrilled they need no plug. They flicker like real candles and switch themselves on. She has had compliments from the neighbours already.

Simple to use which is the appeal. Drop the tea light in, close the ball, hang it up. They charge by day and glow by night with zero input from me. Smaller than expected but the cluster of them on the table looks really cosy.

It is the moving flame effect that sells it. A steady LED would look flat but this flickers like a real candle and gives that warm cosy feel without any flame to watch. I have three hung at different heights by the patio and they look wonderful.

I have other garden lights with cables and these are so much easier. Just hang them where they get sun and forget about them. They have been reliable every evening so far. The metal cage is well made and the tea light is simple to take out.

These give a gentle warm light rather than a bright one, which is just right for relaxing outside. The openwork ball patterns the light nicely on the table. They charge well on sunny days and the dusk sensor is handy. Happy with the four pack.

Charges from the sun, comes on at dusk, off at dawn, flickers like a candle. Everything it promised. I hung two from the shepherd hooks by the seating area and they set the mood every evening with no effort at all. Great little buy.

Of all my garden bits these get the most comments. The warm flicker through the metal ball is so pretty after dark and they look tidy in the daytime too. No plug means I moved them around until I found the best spots. Lovely things.

Four lanterns for the price is fair and they all work the same, charge and glow on their own. I hung them along the pergola and they make the evening look really inviting. Just remember to bring them in over the worst of winter and they should last.

These run themselves which is what I love. Sun charges them, the sensor lights them, I do nothing. The candle flicker is warm and the cage casts a soft pattern. I have one on the windowsill outside and one hung by the door. Really charming.

Clustered the set of four on the patio table and they turn the whole corner cosy once it gets dark. No cables, no switches, they just glow. The metal balls feel sturdy and the tea lights pop out for a clean easily. Pleased all round.

Smaller than I thought but that suits the look I wanted. The flicker is warm and the openwork pattern on the wall behind is a nice detail. They charge fine and switch on at dusk. I hung a couple over the garden bench and they look charming.

The best part is how little they need from me. Hung them up, they catch the sun and light every evening on their own. The candle look is convincing and there is no fire to worry about near the fence. The four pack was great value for lining the deck.

I wanted candlelight on the patio without an actual flame and these are perfect. The LED flickers warmly and the metal ball throws a soft pattern around. They top up in the sun and come on at dusk by themselves. A lovely calm light for the evenings.
