Home Bargains Waterfall Light and other solar finds are turning gardens into evening showpieces
The Firefly Hanging Watering Can Solar Light from Home Bargains, commonly sold for £5. 99, has drawn attention for the way it illuminates outdoor spaces — a simple, solar-powered design that matters now as households refresh gardens for spring. The Home Bargains Waterfall Light combines a cascading string of warm-white LEDs with an 80cm vintage-style can and costs nothing to run once charged.
What the Firefly Hanging Watering Can Solar Light includes
The Firefly Hanging Watering Can Solar Light is priced at £5. 99 (often rounded to £6) and comes with a rechargeable battery in the box. It features 37 LED bulbs that produce a warm-white, twinkle effect described by the retailer as a 'waterfall' flowing from the can's spout. The product stands 80cm tall and is described as easy to install.
Home Bargains Waterfall Light: look and placement in the garden
The Home Bargains Waterfall Light is presented as a decorative lantern that resembles flowing water when lit: warm-white LED string lights cascade from the spout to create a visually striking focal point. The retailer markets the item as 'charming' and 'delightful', saying it adds warmth to a garden, balcony, patio or pathway and brings the 'warmth of sunshine' to outdoor space.
How the solar system works and user instructions
The Firefly Hanging Watering Can Solar Light runs entirely on solar power, so there are no cables, no outdoor sockets and no running costs once installed. The lights charge in daylight and automatically illuminate at dusk. For related Firefly Shooting Starburst stake lights, users are instructed to place the solar panel in direct sunlight for six to eight hours; those lights will automatically turn on at dusk and shut off at dawn. Installation for the watering-can model involves staking it into the ground and allowing the rechargeable battery to charge in sunlight before evening activation.
Other Home Bargains garden items and price comparisons
Home Bargains has expanded its seasonal garden range beyond the watering-can light. The retailer also stocks a three-piece Firefly Shooting Starburst Solar Stake Lights set, priced at £9. 99 and offered both in-store and through the website; that set uses warm-white LEDs on copper wire, includes rechargeable batteries and a remote solar panel, and is likened to 'miniature golden fireworks'.
Compared with other sellers, the Home Bargains watering-can design sits at the lower end of the market: a GloBrite Solar Watering Can Garden Light is listed by another national retailer for £9. 49 online, a Solar Watering Can Outdoor Light is available from an e-commerce marketplace for £12. 99, and a Smart Solar Firefly Decor Can is sold by another retailer for £15. A four-pack of 60 LED Starburst Garden Stake Lights is offered elsewhere for £21, and LED Solar Dandelion Outdoor Lights are listed by a heritage organisation for £25. Home Bargains' £5. 99 price point makes the Firefly watering-can one of the most affordable options mentioned.
