Liotoor Solar Pathway Lights 001, 4 Pack
The garden set to start with. Its listing states a 500mAh battery, a 4-8 hour charge, 12 to 14 hours of light and an IP65 rating.
The six solar lights here are compared on what each listing states: waterproof rating, how long the light runs after a full charge, battery and charging, and how it mounts. Three are pathway or in-ground garden lights sold in packs, one is a 2-pack of motion sensor wall lights, one is a flood light with a separate panel and remote, and one is a set of solar festoon lights. All six were listed on Amazon.com.au with a buy button when we read the listings on 23 October 2026, and every pack size, run time, waterproof rating and dimension below is taken from the product's own listing.

How to choose the best solar garden lights in Australia
1Look at the waterproof rating each listing gives. The SHIJIUDAY ground lights are listed at IP68, the BOSITE flood light at IP67, the TECKNET motion lights at IP66, the Liotoor pathway lights and the Toodour ground lights at IP65, and the Roccar festoon lights at IP44.
2Compare run times as each listing words them. Liotoor gives 12 to 14 hours after a full charge, BOSITE 10-15hours, TECKNET over 10-12 hours, Roccar 8-12 hours, and Toodour up to 8-10 hours. SHIJIUDAY writes its figure as 10 13 hours.
3Decide whether you need a motion sensor. The TECKNET listing describes a PIR motion sensor that detects movement within 13-20ft and a 120° angle. The BOSITE listing describes a light sensor and timer modes, and the three garden light sets turn on at dusk and off at dawn.
4Check what the listing says about the battery. BOSITE lists a 10000mAh battery, SHIJIUDAY 600mah replaceable batteries and Liotoor a 500mAh battery. Toodour says only that the battery is NI-MH, and the Roccar listing gives no battery capacity.
5Think about where the panel can catch the sun. The BOSITE light has a 4.2M/13.78Ft cable between panel and lamp, and the Roccar festoon lights can also be charged over USB. Liotoor's listing asks you to place the lights in a fully sunny place, and SHIJIUDAY's to install them in a place where the sun can shine.
Editor's note
Three things separate these lights. The first is the job: the Liotoor, SHIJIUDAY and Toodour sets light paths and garden beds, the TECKNET pair responds to movement, the BOSITE floods a wider area from a panel on a 4.2M cable, and the Roccar festoons hang over a patio. The second is weather protection as listed, from IP68 on the SHIJIUDAY ground lights down to IP44 on the Roccar festoons. The third is what the listing tells you about the battery: Liotoor, SHIJIUDAY and BOSITE give a capacity, Toodour names only the battery type, Roccar gives none, and the TECKNET table lists only 'Wattage: 6.6 Watt-hours'. Listings were read on 23 October 2026 and can change.
Frequently asked questions
Which of these solar lights has a motion sensor?
The TECKNET 416 LED Solar Motion Sensor Lights. Its listing describes a PIR sensor that detects movement within 13-20ft and a 120° angle, and 3 modes including a motion sensor mode. The BOSITE flood light's listing describes a light sensor and timed modes but mentions no motion sensor, and the Liotoor, SHIJIUDAY and Toodour garden lights turn on at dusk and off at dawn.
How long do solar garden lights stay on?
Each listing gives its own figure after a full charge: 12 to 14 hours for the Liotoor pathway lights, up to 8-10 hours for the Toodour ground lights, and 10 13 hours as the SHIJIUDAY listing writes it. The BOSITE flood light lists 10-15hours, the TECKNET lights over 10-12 hours and the Roccar festoons 8-12 hours.
How can I tell how well solar garden lights are built?
Read the waterproof rating and material in each listing. The SHIJIUDAY ground lights are listed at IP68 with an ABS cover held by 8 screws. The Liotoor pathway lights are IP65 with what the listing calls a rust-resistant shell. The Toodour lights are IP65; their bullets say stainless steel lamp shells while the table says plastic. The Roccar festoons are IP44.
Can these solar lights charge on cloudy days?
The Roccar festoon lights can also be charged over USB for rainy days. Liotoor's listing says charging time is slightly affected by cloudy, rainy and foggy weather, and SHIJIUDAY's listing claims its panels collect energy even in cloudy or rainy weather.
