Pantete Solar Wall Light with Motion Sensor - Black & White

The Pantete is a solar wall light with a built-in motion sensor, made for the outside of the house. A round black wall plate carries a short arm and a white cylinder shade finished with a black band around the top, so the black and white look stays crisp against render, brick or timber cladding. It stands 21cm tall, measures 17.5cm in diameter and reaches 23cm out from the wall, a neat size for a front door. The light comes from integrated LEDs giving 790 lumens at 3000K, a warm white. It is rated IP44, protected from splashing water, so it lives outdoors on a house wall.

We like it most beside a front or back door, by a garage or along a side passage, anywhere you want light the moment someone arrives and darkness the rest of the night. Because its solar panel charges from daylight, it needs no mains supply, so you can put light on walls where running power would be a real job. The sensor covers an angle of 120 degrees and reaches 6m, enough to pick out a visitor at the step or someone coming along the path. As general guidance, the panel does best in an open, sunny spot, so choose a wall that sees good daylight.

Both the body and the shade are plastic, and the whole light weighs 0.71KG. The sensor light level is given as 5 to 35 lux, which sets how dark it needs to be before movement lights the LEDs. Warm 3000K light suits a doorway well, welcoming rather than glaring, and 790 lumens is plenty for finding a keyhole. A wipe with a soft damp cloth now and then keeps the white shade bright and the panel clear of grime. The installation instructions come as a download, so you can read them before choosing the spot.
