The Solar LED Wind Chime Light from LuminaryHome does two jobs at once: it catches the breeze like a traditional chime and lights itself at dusk with no wiring, batteries or timer to set. A day in the sun charges the panel, and the LEDs come on automatically once light levels drop.
Expect roughly five hours of charging to give six to eight hours of glow, which comfortably covers an evening on the patio. Construction is ABS shell, a 120mA solar panel and LED beads, with a plastic ring and hook included so it hangs straight from a tree branch, a pergola beam, a shepherd's hook or a porch eave out of the box.
Two designs are available, butterfly and hummingbird, both cut so the light throws pattern and colour rather than a flat glow. They mark a garden path, a balcony rail or a patio corner attractively, and a pair either side of a doorway makes a simple, low-cost outdoor upgrade. Site it where it gets direct daytime sun for the strongest evening light. There is no switch to remember and no seasonal setup beyond hanging it, so it simply works from the first sunny day onwards, and a light wipe of the solar panel in spring restores charging performance after a winter of grime.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it stay lit?
About five hours of charging gives six to eight hours of glow, which covers a full evening outdoors.
Do I need to switch it on?
No. The LEDs come on automatically once light levels drop, so there is nothing to remember and no timer to program.
What is included for hanging?
A plastic ring and hook come in the box, so it hangs from a branch, pergola beam, shepherds hook or porch eave with nothing else to buy.
Which design should I choose?
Butterfly or hummingbird. Both are cut so the light throws pattern and colour rather than a flat glow, so it comes down to which shape you prefer in the garden.
Where should I hang it for the best light?
Somewhere that gets direct daytime sun. A wipe of the panel each spring keeps charging strong after a winter outdoors.
