Can I use these in solar lights?

I would assume that if the solar light says it can take an NiMH cell, there's no reason you couldn't use these.

Yes. You can always use solar but they are very expensive and you won't get the same amount of light as you would from an electrical bulb. Besides the moonrays don't use that much electricity. If you only need a trickle of light, use solars. If you want more light, use electricity.

Yes, they can be used in such an outdoors application. I have been burning four such bulbs for three months now, 24/7, with no problems. They give off good light, their coloration is almost imperceptible from an incandescent light bulb, and if they burn long enough then they will prove to be worth their extra cost. Good luck in your purchase.

We used them outside, so, I'm not sure about this, we use them in our security lights outside.

Yes. They can be used just like regular bug lights that you use in covered areas. They are the same size as regular light bulbs.

Absolutely! I use these, among other things, to replace the 900 mAh batteries that come in some of the solar lights.

I use them in fan lights base up without problems, to my knowledge. I also use them in outdoor fixtures with base down.

I would only use these if the solar light was made specifically for NiMH batteries. Other types of batteries will have different charging profiles/protection circuits and may not work or may even be dangerous if used in the wrong application.

The short answer is NO! I bought these to use with my landscape lighting as Christmas decoration and they began to melt immediately. I am using 75W halogen.

I don't see why not. They obviously have some long term battery life, but leds don't draw much current. We are using them in our kitchen and like the dimmer and time delay features.

I don't why they wouldn't be safe. The use less power and generate less heat than a conventional incandescent equivalent.

No, use at your own risk. I used these to put LED in California CFL fixtures. Very low wattage.

Yes you can, just make sure the lights dont get wet cause they are not water proof.

Dont see why not, but why not run a compact fluorescent instead. These are very well made fixtures, heat should not be a problem either way.

I would say yes. We use them in lamps but I don't see why you couldn't use them in hall ceiling fixtures or outdoor lighting.

If they're either in an enclosure or out of the weather, yes. I use mine in landscape lighting.

I use them in outdoor motion lights and they work fine. The lights are mounted up under the eaves a bit so they don't get direct rain.
