"I used to burn through solar lights every few months. These are the first ones I've ever owned that are still going strong after two and a half years. Incredible product."
3-CORE INTELLIGENCE
Three Systems.
One Mission: Never Go Dark.
While generic solar lights run at full brightness until sudden death, the Cree-1000 dynamically manages every watt of power across three integrated systems.
ADAPTIVE LIGHTING
Adaptive Lighting System
Reads battery level in real-time and modulates output to guarantee dusk-to-dawn illumination. On a full charge, it runs at peak brightness all night. On a low charge after cloudy days, it conserves power early to stay on until sunrise instead of burning bright and dying at midnight.
DUSK TO DAWN
POWER MANAGEMENT
⚡
Power Management System
Intelligent charge cycling that prevents overcharge, manages discharge curves, and preserves cell health across years of use. Continuously reads stored charge against elapsed night time to guarantee the light never dies unexpectedly.
CELL LONGEVITY
THERMAL CONTROL
65°
OPTIMAL
115°
-10°
Thermal Control System
Insulates battery cells and control board from temperature swings in both directions. Maintains performance and longevity whether it's 115 degrees in Phoenix or below freezing in Minneapolis. This is why the Cree-1000 still runs in year two when budget lights are in the trash.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Everything You Need to Know
Answers to the most common questions about the Cree-1000 German Osram solar motion sensor light.
The Cree-1000 produces 1000 true lumens using 20 German Osram LED chips. Most solar security lights marketed at 1,000 lumens actually produce 150-200 in measured output. The difference is visible from across the street. At CRI 93+, the light quality renders colors accurately, so you can see details, not just shapes.
The PIR motion sensor detects human movement at approximately 25 feet. When triggered, the light fires at full 1000-lumen brightness and holds for 30 seconds after the last detected motion before returning to standby or ambient mode. Unlike the cheap infrared sensors found in budget solar lights, the Cree-1000 PIR sensor is calibrated to detect human-sized heat signatures, not wind, branches, or small animals. This means fewer false activations, which directly preserves battery life. Each false trigger on a budget light wastes stored power. The Cree-1000 conserves it for when it matters.
The monocrystalline panel charges in partial shade and low-angle winter sun. With a 72-hour power reserve, the Cree-1000 can run through two consecutive overcast days without losing a night. If you get 4+ hours of any daylight, it charges. During extended cloudy weeks in winter, switch to Mode 1 (motion only) to conserve maximum power.
The Cree-2000 doubles the light output to 2000 lumens with a larger solar panel and higher-capacity battery. Both share the same Adaptive Lighting, Power Management, and Thermal Control systems, German Osram LEDs, and 24-month warranty. Choose the Cree-1000 for standard residential security. Choose the Cree-2000 for larger properties, commercial applications, or areas requiring maximum brightness.
Yes, the Cree-1000 switches between 3000K warm white and 4000K daytime white with a double-press of the control button. 3000K creates a warm, inviting ambiance for front entries and patios. 4000K provides crisper, higher-contrast light for driveways and security applications. Switch anytime without tools. Most buyers use 3000K on the front porch and entertaining areas where warm light sets the mood, and 4000K on side yards and back gates where visibility and security take priority. Each light can be set independently, so you can mix both temperatures across your property.
Thermal management. The Cree-1000 packs 20 LEDs, a monocrystalline panel, and a Li-ion battery into a compact form factor. LEDs generate heat during operation. The sun radiates heat onto the housing all day. A small metal enclosure traps both heat sources and can damage internal electronics over time. The engineered composite dissipates heat from both directions without conducting and trapping it, which is why the Cree-1000 runs reliably through Arizona summers when metal-housed competitors in this size class cook their own circuit boards.
For a standard home: 2 lights cover the garage and front entry, 4 lights add the backyard and side gates, and 6-8 lights provide full perimeter coverage. Each light's 25-foot detection range and wide beam angle means you need fewer units than you'd expect. The 2-pack at $89.99 is the starting point. Multi-pack pricing saves 5-15% for larger setups.
Full coverage on defects in materials and workmanship. If your Cree-1000 fails within 24 months, contact our US-based support team in Corona, California. We troubleshoot with you and replace the unit if needed. No automated voicemail, no overseas call center, no runaround. This is the warranty that cheap solar light brands cannot afford to offer because their products would not survive it.
Yes. The Cree-1000 uses a built-in photocell sensor that detects ambient light levels. It activates automatically at dusk and deactivates at dawn. There are no timers to set, no switches to flip, and no app to configure. Once you mount it, charge it for 2-3 days, and select your mode, it operates on its own every night from that point forward. One important note: avoid installing it near a street light or porch fixture. The photocell can mistake nearby artificial light for daylight and prevent the Cree-1000 from activating.
No. Zero electrical connection of any kind. The solar panel charges the internal lithium-ion battery during daylight. There are no wires, no outlets, no transformers, no electricians, no permits, and no monthly power cost. Installation takes a few minutes per light with the included mounting hardware and a Phillips head screwdriver. For reference, a licensed electrician installing wired security lights on a standard home typically quotes $1,800-3,500 for labor and materials. The Cree-1000 eliminates that entirely.
The Cree-1000 has a 5+ year expected lifespan, proven across three product generations. Owners of V1 and V2 units are still running them after 4-5 years of continuous nightly use. The German Osram 2835 LEDs are rated for 50,000 hours of operation. The lithium-ion battery, monocrystalline panel, and Thermal Control System are all designed for long-term outdoor durability. In moderate climates with proper sun exposure, these lights are built to outlast anything else in the category by years.
German Osram LEDs are manufactured by Osram (now ams-OSRAM), a precision optics company with over 100 years of engineering history. The 2835 chips in the Cree-1000 deliver CRI 93+ color rendering, which means colors in your landscape appear accurate and natural under the light instead of the washed-out greenish cast produced by generic LEDs at CRI 60-70. The practical difference is immediately visible. Your stone looks like stone, your wood looks like wood, and the light itself looks designed rather than cheap. This is the same LED technology used in professional architectural and commercial lighting applications.
