Can't find the perfect solar fairy lights for your space?
Your new lighting system uses extremely fine copper wiring to transport low-voltage electricity efficiently. While this technology enables beautiful, eco-friendly illumination, it requires careful handling and specific installation methods to ensure longevity. Understanding these requirements will help you enjoy your lights for many years to come.
1. Panel Mounting Options
Ground spike for soft surfaces
Wall bracket for fences/walls
Shelf stand for windowsills (If Applicable)
2. Optimal Positioning
Choose a south-facing location
Avoid shaded areas
Ensure direct sunlight access
3. Light String Support
Support every 2-3 LEDs
Avoid spans over 4-5 LEDs
Use cable ties for security
4. Power Settings
Switch on for initial setup
Charges in both ON/OFF positions
Auto-activation at dusk
Installation Methods
Choose the best mounting option for your location. Proper installation is crucial for the longevity of your lighting system.
Ground Installation
Soften hard ground with water
Insert spike securely
Attach power unit
Wall Mounting
Use screws and wall plugs
Secure bracket firmly
Click panel into place
Windowsill Setup (where applicable)
Use provided stand
Ensure stable surface
Maximum sun exposure
Safety Checks
Secure all connections
Test stability
Check wire tension
Moving & Relocating
The delicate nature of the copper wiring means special care is needed when moving or storing your lights. The thin wires that make these lights energy-efficient are also what make them vulnerable to damage if handled roughly. Even small kinks or breaks in the wire can affect entire sections of your display.
Safe Storage Method
Create cardboard tube for winding
Roll carefully, never bunch
Store in dry, safe location
Pruning Precautions
Remove before pruning
Extra care with conifer trees
Annual maintenance planning
Handling Tips
Never pull or yank strings
Handle wiring gently
Avoid sharp bends or kinks
Reinstallation
Check wiring before reuse
Reapply proper supports
Test before final setup
Why Support Is Crucial
Supporting your lights every 3-4 LEDs isn't just a suggestion - it's essential for preservation. When left unsupported, the weight of the wire creates tension points that can break the delicate internal connections. Think of it like a delicate necklace - if left hanging, it will eventually break at its weakest point.
The Conifer Challenge
Conifer trees present a unique challenge for outdoor lighting. These trees require annual pruning and tend to move significantly in the wind. Their branches can whip around vigorously during storms, which is why extra support and careful installation are necessary. When installing on conifers, think of it as creating a secure pathway rather than just draping.
Water and Weather Protection
While designed for outdoor use, concentrated water flow can damage your lighting over time. Roofs and structures without gutters create waterfalls that can wear away at the protective coating and eventually cause failure. Always consider water paths when planning your installation.
Wildlife Interactions
Birds are naturally attracted to bright, small objects that resemble berries. This is particularly problematic near bird feeders where birds are already actively foraging. The LED bulbs can be damaged by curious beaks, so strategic placement away from bird-heavy areas is important for preservation.
Long-Term Care Commitment
Your lighting system is an investment in your outdoor space. While the initial installation may take more time to do properly, this effort pays off many times over in longevity. Many of our customers report their properly installed lights lasting for years, while those who skip proper support often experience issues within months.
Remember: The few extra minutes spent on proper support and careful installation will save hours of troubleshooting and replacement later.
Final Note: When properly installed and cared for, your lights can provide years of beautiful, sustainable illumination. The key is understanding that their delicate nature requires thoughtful installation and handling. Take your time with the initial setup, follow these guidelines carefully, and you'll be rewarded with a lasting, magical display.

Bought for Mum’s 90th birthday. Ordered on Monday arrived with free delivery on Thursday. Very well constructed and comes pre-charged. Decent sized solar panel and good-sized battery. There is only one battery despite the unit having facilities for 3. Nathan was very helpful. It turned out we had the battery upside down. The flat side should touch the spring!
Worked beautifully. Mum’s delighted.
Fantastic lights
I have a few sets if these lights and they’re fantastic. They light up even after the dullest f days and give my garden a lovely ambiance. Highly recommended %
5/5
Great product, great service. Thank you.
Re Fairy lights
I bought these lights back in 2012 they were fantastic
until they were cut by mistake late last year?? so I'm ordering them again after finding my old Invoice. Well worth the money.
PowerBee Endurance ® Solar Fairy Lights 240 in Warm White : Pretty lights without the need for much sunlight
We now have these lights in 2 trees in my small yard/garden. Due to the location of the tree the solar panel is currently right up against the wall of the house and does not get any direct light for the whole day and is always in shade. The past week has been overcast and the lights stay on for about 4 hours each night and give a new dimension to the yard in the evenings.
I'm going to move them into a sunny spot once we have sorted the garden and look forward to them being brighter and staying on all night.
Highly recommended.
PowerBee Endurance ® Solar Fairy Lights 240 in Warm White : Great lights for all year round
I bought these lights to go outside at Christmas thinking they would probably not be fantastic this time of year with the dull grey weather we were having. I was wrong!! Even on the dullest days the lights charged up enough to last a few hours in the dark - usually still shining, if a little dulled, by the time I went to bed. It was great not having to worry about turning them on & off or setting up a timer - as soon as it got dark the bright little lights came on and then went off in the light (I had them in the front garden and they would go off if a car's lights hit the sensor, but back on again when it passed). I've now moved them into the back garden, and will leave them there to make a pretty display for the summer, they're too good to only keep for Christmas!
PowerBee Endurance ® Solar Fairy Lights 240 in Warm White : bright lights every night
I saw this set of lights in a yurt a couple of years ago and they give a lovely glow (the owner put me on to Powerbee), so I got a set for my brother who is using them to light his off grid home in portugal (on every night for over two years without problem)
Now a third set to light my 20 sq m chalet temporary home. They give a great ambient night from dusk to dawn (if necessary) and charge well through dark grey days of winter. BRILLIANT
PowerBee Endurance ® Solar Fairy Lights 240 in Warm White : Excellent product
Beautiful lights such a warm glow so easy to put up should have order more than I did had to order 2 more sets. Exellent services, speedy delivery, friendly voice over the phone as I wanted some advice on the lights. Would recommend highly
