post light base

Most outdoor post lights use the standard Edison medium screw base (E26). Some fixtures — especially smaller or decorative models — use a candelabra screw base (E12). Always check the product specifications or fixture label to confirm the base type before purchasing bulbs.

Most fixtures are electric hardwired. A separate solar lamp-post option is powered by a rechargeable battery and uses an integrated LED.

Many fixtures include a 3-inch post fitter designed for 3" posts and can also be installed on wall, column, or pier mounts. The solar option offers multiple installation choices, such as a base mount, ground stake, stake-and-base combo, or U-shaped spikes.

Heights in this set range from about 15.62 inches for smaller lantern-style fixtures up to about 68.5 inches for the tall solar lamp post.

Many fixtures are labeled weather- or water-resistant, and several are approved for wet locations. The solar lamp post is described with an all-weather design intended for outdoor use. Check each product's listing for specific wet-location ratings.

Multiple fixtures are listed as compatible with LED replacement bulbs. The solar lamp post uses integrated LEDs and includes listed lumen output and color temperature for that integrated light source.

Most hardwired fixtures note that light bulbs are not included. The solar lamp-post option includes rechargeable batteries, the mounting hardware or ground stakes, and an integrated LED or a vintage-style filament bulb, depending on the model.
