Solar Technology Arena 2K Solar Stable Light Kit
Description
Solar Technology Arena 2K Solar Stable Light Kit
The Solar Technology Arena 2K is a solar lighting kit comprising a 10Wp solar panel and two 300 lumen LED strip lights, giving 600 lumens of total output. It is best for horse owners who need light in a stable, field shelter, tack room or barn that has no mains electricity supply.
Because the system charges from daylight, there is no need to trench a cable or wire in from the house. The two separate LED strips let you light two areas from one kit, which suits a pair of stables, a barn with a dark far end, or a stable and its adjoining feed store.
Key Features
- 10Wp solar panel charges from daylight, no mains supply needed
- 2 x 300 lumen LED strip lights for a 600 lumen total output
- Two-point lighting so you can cover two stables or two ends of a building
- Wide strip light spreads light across a space rather than a narrow spot beam
- Off-grid friendly for stables, shelters, tack rooms, feed stores, barns, sheds and workshops
- LED lighting for low power draw from a modest solar panel

How to Use
- Choose a mounting position for the solar panel that gets the most daylight through the day, away from tree cover and roof shadow.
- Fix the panel securely, angling it so rain runs off and dust does not settle on the face.
- Mount the two LED strip lights inside, high enough that horses cannot reach them.
- Route and secure all cabling out of reach of horses and clear of doorways, rug racks and haynets.
- Allow the system a full day of daylight before first use so it can charge.
- Wipe the panel face with a soft damp cloth every few weeks to clear dust, mud splash and cobwebs.
FAQ
How bright is the Arena 2K?
Each LED strip produces 300 lumens, so the kit gives 600 lumens in total across the two lights. That is aimed at practical task lighting for jobs such as mucking out, filling haynets and finding kit, rather than floodlighting an arena.
Does it need mains electricity?
No. The kit is powered by its 10Wp solar panel, which is why it suits stables, shelters and outbuildings with no supply.
Can I light two stables with one kit?
Yes. The kit includes two separate LED strip lights, so they can be positioned in two different areas or at opposite ends of one building, within the reach of the supplied cabling.
Will it still work in winter?
It will charge whenever the panel receives daylight, but shorter, duller winter days mean less charge and therefore shorter run times than in summer. Siting the panel in the most open position available makes a noticeable difference.
Where should I fit the panel?
Somewhere open and unshaded, angled so water drains off. Avoid positions under trees, behind a taller roofline or where muck heaps and traffic throw dust onto the panel face.
What else do I need?
Beyond suitable fixings for your building, nothing additional is required to light the space. Browse more yard equipment in our stable equipment collection.
