Solar Dock Post Lights
*Lights include White LEDs by default.*
Lake Lite's Solar Dock Post Lights fit over a variety of post shapes and diameters. By day, the solar panel drinks in solar energy, and a light sensor switches the light on when the surrounding environment darkens enough. In the morning, the sensor detects the sunlight and switches the light off.
Customize your dock easily by swapping out the colored LEDs (sold separately).
Measure your posts before ordering.

Square Dock Light and Adapter
Comment
What great customer service! We have 1 1/2" square dock posts. I contacted customer service to see if they had a dock light to fit the post. They did not, but put their design time into action and they designed and made a 2" to 1 1/2" ...

These lights are fantastic but the shipping took months. We ordered these lights in July and didn't receive them until late September. I had to call the company multiple times and the communication about delivery was not good.

Lake Lite's Solar Dock Post Lites are the best dock lights I've ever used. For years, we have tried various other brands of solar lights to illuminate our 150+ foot dock, both for our use and for the navigational safety of the many evening and night pontoon boaters on our ...

My kids bought me 4 of these lites for Father's Day. Not only do they look great but the company stands behind their product. I was having problems with one of them coming on at dark. I contacted Lake Lite and they sent me the replacement parts promptly. These lites ...

I just purchased these a couple of weeks ago, so I cannot speak to the durability. However, I am very pleased with the amount of light they give off and the ease of installing them on my dock poles. So far so good. They charged up quickly and come on ...

Ordered for the guide posts on my boat lift. I'm on salt water so I like that they are not metallic. They come with instructions that say bring them in for the winter, I'm ok with that also. The batteries they come with are cheap, one wouldn't charge, but they ...

Have 6 of these for our dock going on 3 years now. They work as well as they are advertised. We live in Michigan and leave the dock in all year, as well as the lights. #1, you can swap out the LED's to change the color. We have two ...

I placed these at the entrance to my steps. The deck is dark, these lights are doing the job of making sure any guests can easily see the steps. I will be buying another set of these fantastic lights

Do they come with bulbs?
- Yes, Solar Dock Post Lights come with high quality, bright white LEDs. You can buy just the bulbs and customize the colors, choose between White, Warm White, Blue, Green, Red, Orange and Yellow.
Do they come with batteries?
- Yes, Solar Dock Post Lights come with high quality, high capacity solar rechargeable batteries that have an expected life of 2 or more years.
Are the batteries replaceable?
- Yes, the batteries are can be replaced. We recommend using only Lake Lite’s solar rechargeable batteries, which are available on our website for this product under the “Accessories & Spare Parts Tab”.
Do Solar Dock Post Lights come with a set screw to secure the base to the post?
- Yes, they come with a set screw.
How should they be stored for the winter?
- Remove batteries after a full day of solar charging, then store in a dry location. We recommend storing the batteries and screws in a zip-lock storage bag so that no parts are lost.
Are they actually “Waterproof” or are they just water resistant? Will they withstand heavy rain? Are they submersible?
- Solar Dock Post Lights are truly waterproof and can tolerate heavy downpours. However, they are NOT submersible for any long period of time. The LEDs are changeable, thus the contacts are exposed if the light is submerged. Should the light be submerged, clean off the contacts (wires extending from the LED) with clean water and spray them with WD-40. All other components including the battery is waterproof and sealed if you have tightened the battery cover securely.
Troubleshooting: My lights did not come on after a day of solar charging? What is the problem?
- First, make sure that the battery is securely in place.
- Second, be sure to allow the units to charge in direct sunlight for a day to achieve optimum performance. Although the provided batteries are new, sometimes they lose charge while in the box. It is best to charge the lights for a full day outside in direct sunlight. They cannot be charged inside on a window sill. They need to be placed outside in direct sunlight.
- Third, make sure that the units have been placed in an area where they receive direct sunlight. Placing a solar product in a shady area will result in little or no solar recharging of the batteries which will dramatically reduce the lighting time.
