The specification tells you exactly what this lamp will do. 100 LEDs producing 600 lumens is genuinely bright for a solar fitting — enough to light a gateway, a doorway or a section of path properly rather than marking it with a glow. The motion sensor covers a 120-degree angle with a 3–5 metre detection range, so it triggers as someone approaches, which both saves battery and makes the light useful as a security prompt. A 1200mAh battery charges from the integrated panel at 5.5V, 1W. Model BK-100. No wiring, no electrician and no running cost: mount it on a wall, gate or post facing the sun and it handles the rest.

Buying guide
Sensor geometry decides where a motion light should go. With a 120-degree angle and 3–5 metre range, mount it facing across the approach rather than straight down it, so movement crosses the sensor's field instead of coming head-on — sensors detect crossing movement far more reliably. Around 200cm is the right height for a gate or doorway. Keep the panel unshaded and clean. If it triggers on plants moving in wind, angle it slightly away from the vegetation. After a long cloudy spell, run times shorten; this is battery capacity, not a fault.
How it compares
Against a constant-on solar light, motion activation conserves battery so the light is bright when it is actually needed. Against a mains sensor floodlight, this needs no wiring and costs nothing to run, though it gives less output. For a large compound, combine several units rather than relying on one.
Frequently asked questions
How far does the sensor reach?
3 to 5 metres across a 120 degree angle. Mount it facing across the approach rather than straight down it, since sensors detect crossing movement best.
How bright is 600 lumens?
Bright enough to properly light a gateway, doorway or section of path - considerably more than a decorative garden light.
Why does it trigger on windy nights?
Moving plants can cross the sensor field. Angle the lamp slightly away from vegetation and the false triggers usually stop.
