How to choose outdoor lighting
Weatherproofing, power and security.
1
Understand IP ratings
The higher the IP number, the more weatherproof. IP44 suits sheltered spots (under eaves); use IP65+ for anything exposed to rain and sun.
2
Mains vs solar
Mains gives constant brightness; solar means no wiring and no running cost — ideal for gardens, driveways and load-shedding.
3
Add motion sensors
PIR motion sensors save power and boost security — lights come on only when needed. Filter by motion sensor.
Outdoor lighting — FAQs
What IP rating do I need outside?
IP44 for sheltered areas (under a porch), IP65 or higher for anything exposed to rain and direct sun. Each product lists its IP rating.
Are solar lights bright enough?
Modern solar floods and street lights are very capable — check the wattage and lumens. Bigger panels and batteries give longer, brighter run-times.
Mains vs solar — which is cheaper long-term?
Solar costs more upfront but has no running cost and no wiring; mains is cheaper to buy and gives constant output. Many people mix both.
Do motion sensors work with LED?
Yes — most outdoor LED fittings and floods offer PIR motion sensing. Filter by motion sensor to find them.
Which finishes resist coastal corrosion?
Look for stainless steel, marine-grade aluminium or powder-coated fittings for coastal areas.
