Outdoor floodlight for load shedding

[Supine]

I am looking for an outdoor floodlight with battery backup that can plug in and only come on if it's dark and the power is off.

Basically something to light up my entrance when it is dark and there is load shedding.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

I use a 20w motion sensor solar light that I got from L merlin. Works well.

Any China shop sells them by the dozen.
Springs, Carnival Mall Brakpan and Bruma.
Takelot

All come with Auto On/Off

Only when it is dark and there is loadshedding, or only when it is dark even if there is loadshedding?
If the latter, why not the prior as well?
If the prior, as per HowTos post. If the latter you might be on your own

I'm also looking for a 'street lamp' that comes on at dusk and switches off as dawn. (obviously solar).

Look under ACDC Solar Street light

You get a 2,3 and 4 light unit..works very well.

It was a pun 'shady' vs 'light' , was just joking.
