Solaire IP65 Solar LED Bollard — 520mm or 920mm

An off-grid solar-powered exterior bollard with an integrated photovoltaic panel, lithium iron phosphate battery, and intelligent backup mode — designed for installations where running mains power isn't practical or desirable. Useful for long driveways, rural property entrances, garden settings far from power sources, or any installation where avoiding cable trenching saves significant cost and disruption.

The 5W mono-crystalline panel charges the 12Ah LiFePO4 battery in approximately 8 hours of strong sunlight, delivering up to 2–3 days of backup runtime in intelligent mode through periods of low sun. The system efficiency of 115 lm/W is considerably higher than typical solar bollards, meaning more usable light per stored watt-hour.

Best installed along long driveways, around pool surrounds, in garden borders, or as security marking around rural properties. For higher-traffic commercial installations or where consistent year-round runtime is critical regardless of weather, the mains-powered alternative is recommended.

Available in two heights:

•       520mm — residential pathway and garden installations, lower-profile sites

•       920mm — driveway-edge installations, longer paths, sites where higher visibility is needed
