The Best Wireless Lights from Amazon
Our favorite wireless lights, battery operated lights, and solar lights around our home to improve closets, kitchens, landscaping, hallways, and anywhere without hiring an electrician.
Nerd alert. I never thought I’d research and write an entire post about wireless lights but here we are.
The “beauty” of living in an older house is our electrician has practically become our best friend. Outlets are in weird places. Some switches in this place are still a mystery. And there are days when I think, “Why isn’t there a light here?” (Okay, actually, new houses are like that too.)
The electrician bill has added up for sure, but one thing I’ve discovered in this whole journey is battery operated lights and solar lights basically rock!
We’ve used them all over our house, and these are the absolute best based on our experience and their reviews.
The Best Battery Operated Lights and Solar Lights on Amazon
1. Solar Uplights
We had bad experiences with solar lights before and didn’t have high hopes for these lights but were willing to try them out. Game changer!
These solar spotlights make our house exterior look amazing at night and like we paid a landscaper big money to install wired uplights.
They’ve been going strong for a month, and so far, we haven’t had any issues.
2. Under Cabinet Lights
When the florescent lights under our cabinets started burning out in our kitchen (since I didn’t really love the look of the florescents anyway), I wanted to try a wireless rechargeable option. These wireless under cabinet lights work amazing!
They’re magnetic too if you want to use them on metal shelving in a workshop or pantry. My only complaint is I wish they had a remote option. But all in all, I’m happy with them.
3. Battery Operated Picture Light
I really wanted a picture light above this printable art in our hallway, but I didn’t want to have permanent electricity wired in the wall. This little wireless picture light worked exactly like I hoped.
I made it look antique by applying some antique gold paint to it (would have used Rub n Buff but I was out). It’s super light so it can hang with just Command strips without any wall damage.
I wish it were rechargeable and didn’t require new batteries every so often, but that’s my only complaint.
4. Battery Operated Motion Sensor Ceiling Light
The thing that bugs me about this little hallway nook under our stairs is there is no light to help us see inside of this closet. I put up this battery operated ceiling light and it did the trick!
The cool thing is it has a motion sensor so we don’t have to worry about a switch.
5. Motion Sensor Closet Lights
I feel way fancy when I open my closet doors and the angels sing and my clothes illuminate. Okay, angels don’t sing. But the illuminating part does! Our closets feel so upscale with these wireless motion sensor lights now.
6. Remote Wireless Puck Lights
I put up these wall sconces in our office and placed these wireless puck lights inside thinking I would eventually have them hardwired, and I never did. They work so well as wireless lights that I just left them. It’s been a little over 7 months, and I haven’t had to replace the batteries yet.

Have you found any other battery operated light or solar light faves we should know about? Let me know and I’ll add them to the list.
Thank you thank you thank you for this post. I’ve been searching for under counter lights to replace the fluorescent ones that were put in and have avoided landscaping lights because I didn’t want to deal with the wiring. Your blog is the best!
Do you mind updating us on the landscaping spotlights? Many reviewers have said they only lasted about a month. Are yours still going strong?
We’ve had ours for about 2 months now and so far so good. They turn on at sunset and die out by around 11pm, but that’s when we’d normally turn off our exterior lights anyway.
I had no idea that the variety of cordless lighting options had grown to the point of endless choices for every problem area needing illumination. Thank you for posting this piece! I now have some good ideas for bringing light to he dark areas of our living spaces!
Thank you! Can’t wait to surprise my son with the under cabinet lights!! We need bedside reading sconces. But when I clicked on the link it said they were no longer available. Do you have any suggestions?
Can you give me a link to the post for your husband’s office with the brown green wall? I can’t find it. We purchased the sconces and I was wondering what size puck light we could put in it . It seems like it would only fit something around 1.5 inches.
Hi, Laura. Is this the post you are looking for? https://www.blesserhouse.com/industrial-military-office-reveal/
I could not find a link embedded into this paragraph for the solar landscape lights..??.. We would love these! I also love the mosquito net curtains! I’ll be measuring and ordering. 🙂 THANKS!
Hi! So sorry about that. Here is the link to them. https://rstyle.me/+va7WnivyYGwv4A8_EaUwlw
