Imagine the luxury of all the light that you need when you have to feed, muck out and rug up every morning and evening during the cold, dark months of winter.

The high performance 10W solar panel generates energy during daylight hours and stores it in a 12V car or caravan battery for use during the hours of darkness.

The length of time that you can use the light each day without running the battery flat depends upon the solar energy available.

There is much less energy available in the winter when you most need the lighting. December is the critical month with least solar radiation available to re-charge the battery. Please refer to the table below to see how long you can use the light for each day (on average) without running the battery flat. A brighter light can only be used for a shorter time. If you want to have light for longer choose Equestrian Lighting Kit 18W or 28W.

Equestrian Lighting Kit 10W is designed for safety and practicality. The lamp is enclosed in a tough, weather proof bulkhead luminaire to prevent any possibility of broken glass from the lamp if your horse rears up. The light switch is a strong weather proof design to withstand the tough stable environment.

Equestrian Lighting Kit 10W comes with a pre-connected solar panel and wiring harness so can easily and safely be installed by anyone in about 1 hour (no special tools required) following the comprehensive fitting instructions provided. We fit the connectors, crocodile clips, fuses and all the connector terminals in our factory so that installation is very straight forward for you. Then, it is simply a question of preparing the cables and inserting the ends into the connector blocks.

The basic Equestrian Lighting Kit 10W is supplied with 4 x plastic brackets & nylon ties for fixing the solar panel to the mounting surface.

A better (but more expensive) option is to specify the Equestrian Lighting Kit 10W complete with Wall Bracket for 10W solar panel (Fixed 36° and adjustable 45°) as standard. The Wall Bracket is shown below as an accessory. A pole mounting accessory is also available - see below.

If you move to another stables, you can take your Equestrian Lighting Kit 10W with you as it isn’t permanently wired to a mains supply.

The Equestrian Lighting Kit 10W has a 10 year warranty and will easily pay back its investment many times over.

Required but NOT supplied:

We recommend that you purchase a 12V car or caravan deep cycle battery with a capacity of at least 75Ak~85Ah so that you can be certain that you will always have enough light available. A battery of this type is available from most motoring / caravanning shops.

The Numax sealed leisure 105 Ah battery costing £78.68 is ideal and can be purchased from - click here

If, over the course of a month, you use more energy than the solar panels generate you can take the battery home and give it an overnight boost using a car battery charger.

For the technically minded:

A charge controller is not required when a 10W solar panel is used with a 75Ah battery as the unregulated charge current cannot damage the battery. If you use a sealed lead acid battery with less capacity than that recommended above, you will need a 4Ah charge controller. Call our sales helpline if you need assistance and they will be happy to advise you.
