{"product_id":"solar-ball-spike-light-61cm-black","title":"Solar Ball Spike Light 61cm - Black","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis solar ball spike light is a round white globe seated in a black collar on a slim, pointed ground spike. It stands 61cm tall overall, and the globe is 30cm in diameter, big enough to read clearly from a distance without crowding a small space. The body and spike are black plastic and the shade is white plastic with a glossy opal surface, so by day it looks like a clean, simple sphere and after dark the whole globe glows evenly. The light comes from a built-in solar LED of 0.2W at a colour temperature of 3000K, which gives a warm white light rather than a cold, bluish one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it runs on solar power, it needs no mains connection, so you can place it wherever you can push the spike into soft ground and its solar panel sees plenty of daylight. As general guidance, a solar light does best in an open, sunny spot, clear of deep shade. One globe makes a soft focal point beside planting, and a few set in a line will mark an edge or a route after dark without any trenching or wiring. It suits anyone who wants gentle evening light in a spot where a mains supply would be awkward or costly to bring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe spike pushes 10cm into the ground, so pick soil firm enough to keep the globe standing straight. There is an on\/off switch, useful when you want to put it away for a while or keep it dark for an evening. The run time is 6 to 8 hours, and it uses an AAA NiMH battery of 600mAh. Packed, it weighs 0.812KG, light enough to lift and move as your planting changes through the year. The installation instructions come as a download, so a quick read before you set the spike in the ground is time well spent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e61cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBody Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBody Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShade Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShade Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLight Source\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolar LED, integrated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.2W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3000K\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSwitch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOn\/off switch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRun Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6–8 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAAA, NiMH, 600mAh\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtection Class\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClass III\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecess Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (packed)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.812KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/solar-ball-spike-light-61cm-black-installation-instructions.pdf?v=1792452091\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eInstallation Instructions (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow tall is the solar ball spike light?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands 61cm tall overall, and the white globe is 30cm in diameter, so it reads clearly from a distance after dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the run time?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe run time is 6 to 8 hours, and like any solar light it does best when its panel charges in an open, sunny spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat battery does it use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt uses an AAA NiMH battery of 600mAh, which stores the charge from its solar panel so the globe can glow after dark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour is the light?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe built-in solar LED runs at 3000K, a warm white that gives the white opal globe a soft, gentle glow rather than a cold, blue light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have a switch?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, it has an on\/off switch, so you can keep it dark whenever you put it away or want an evening without it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow deep does the spike go?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe spike pushes 10cm into the ground, so firm soil will hold the globe upright better than loose, crumbly earth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eglo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53466197721355,"sku":"22444","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/solar-ball-spike-light-61cm-black.jpg?v=1792452116","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/solar-ball-spike-light-61cm-black","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
