    Hello, gentlemen, I don't have electricity in the garage and I need some lighting at the entrance, I found something like that

    https://toya24.pl/product-pol-10009947-LAMPA-...NNA-SOLARNA-Z-CZUJNIKIEM-RUCHU-6-SMD-LED.html

    have you had contact with something like this? is it worth buying such an invention?

    I would like to add that I do not expect who knows what spotlights. I just want it to be clear at the entrance if someone passes by.

    Hello. I have something like this in front of the garage and so far it is lit without failure, the light is sufficient, the sensor works well.

    How about rain and cold? Does it interfere with operation?

    In winter, the battery is only charged less frequently due to the shorter working day ;)

    Are you charging at home or is it charging itself when installed?

    The solar solar itself charges.

    Not worth it. It's better and cheaper to connect the lamp to 230V. The amount of energy its battery stores throughout its life costs less from the power plant than the cost of another battery.

    I do not recommend this solution. All these solar powered LEDs are linden. Theoretically, the housing is splash-proof, but only in the photo it looks good. You can see immediately that the water will get there. Service life, depending on the execution, 1-2 seasons. I have already processed about 3 models at similar prices and everything got soaked in a while and stopped working properly. What did not get wet, it broke in another way (e.g. damage to motion / twilight detection, loss of battery capacity after winter, etc.).
    Maybe these leds in metal housings for a few hundred PLN are more durable.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the viability of a solar lamp with a motion sensor and 6 SMD LEDs for garage lighting, particularly in areas without electricity. Users shared mixed experiences; one user reported satisfactory performance with reliable lighting and sensor functionality, while another raised concerns about the lamp's effectiveness in cold and rainy conditions. A few participants noted that the solar panel charges itself, but winter may reduce charging frequency. However, skepticism was expressed regarding the durability of solar-powered LEDs, with one user recommending alternatives connected to 230V for better reliability and cost-effectiveness. Concerns about water resistance and overall lifespan of solar models were highlighted, suggesting that more robust options may be necessary for long-term use.
