IKEA launches solar-powered garden lights

Furniture store IKEA has released its first solar powered product: garden lights.

The SOLIG outdoor lights collect the sun’s energy during the day to recharge their batteries.

At night they light up, ‘adding ambience to your evening entertaining’.

SOLIG lights are weather resistant and come in a variety of different shapes, including hanging batons that hang in trees, lanterns that peg into the ground, and circle-shaped path lights.

The LED bulbs inside use 70% less energy and last up to four times longer than standard light bulbs.

As well as brightening up garden BBQ parties, they’re great for camping too.
