More information

The Solar Mate solar powered lighting kits address the problem of illuminating areas where there's no mains power, and can be easily and safely installed by anyone (and is also exempt from Part P of the Building regulations).

Using purely the energy of the sun, Solar Mate’s solar panel will collect enough energy during the course of a day (even in Britain) to power its bulb for between 5 and 7 hours every day of the year (5 hours in the winter – 7 hours for the rest for the year).

Solar Mate has a 10 year warranty so will easily pay back its investment many times.

The Solar Mate I kit is suitable for smaller buildings such as the average garden shed or summer house, and will illuminate a 16square meter area.
