Product Insights
The Large Buly Floating Solar Lamp by Newgarden offers a 360-degree diffused light with 128 color options and three white temperatures, dimmable from 2 to 6 hours runtime via remote, and auto-on at dusk. Its IP68 sealed body floats on water, requires 8–12 hours of direct sun for a full charge, and has a battery rated for over 800 cycles. However, at full brightness runtime is only 2 hours, there is no timer, and the remote requires line-of-sight. For longevity, it must be rinsed after saltwater use and stored indoors during winter, with periodic recharging.
Verified claims
- Light distribution
- 360-degree beam eliminates dark zones and creates uniform glow even when floating on water.
- Color range
- 128 color options plus three white light temperatures (2700K-6500K).
- Controls and brightness
- Brightness and colour are adjustable with the included IR remote; the built-in twilight sensor switches the lamp on automatically at dusk.
- Runtime
- Runtime is about 6 hours at full brightness, 12 hours at 50% brightness, and up to 30 hours at the lowest dimming.
- Timer
- No timer on the remote; the lamp normally runs from dusk until dawn unless manually switched off or the battery runs out first.
- Charging
- Full charge needs 8–12 hours of direct sunlight; twilight sensor prevents daytime drain.
- Durability
- Battery rated for over 800 cycles; store above freezing to prevent capacity loss.
- Floating
- Floats on water with gentle bobbing and 360° diffused light; the sealed solar design lets it stay on the water through the season without being brought in to charge.
- Size combinations
- Available in 20, 30, and 40 cm diameters for graduated groupings on water.
- Operation
- 45-lumen 360° diffused light provides a soft ambient glow rather than area illumination; runtime from about 6 hours at full brightness to 30 hours at the lowest dimming, with twilight sensor and IR remote.
- Material
- Polyethylene and LED with UV protection, >800 battery cycles, >25,000h LED life.
- Water resistance
- IP68 sealed body for water and saltwater use; rinse after saltwater.
- Value
- At $229 CAD, multi-year service outlasts inflatables needing yearly replacement.
- Maintenance
- After floating in any water—pool, pond, or fountain—rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly before storage.
- Winter storage
- Store in heated indoor space over winter; recharge every 4–6 weeks.
- Cleaning
- Clean with lukewarm water and neutral soap only; rinse after water exposure.
- Placement
- Place in direct sunlight for 8–12 hours; sensor requires unobstructed daylight.
- Control system
- Control via IR remote and twilight sensor; no app, no timer, line-of-sight needed.
- saltwater suitability
- UV-resistant polyethylene shell, IP68-rated, sealed with no charging port for saltwater use.
- long-term reliability
- Battery rated for 800+ cycles and LED rated for 25,000–50,000 hours; dawn-to-dusk sensor preserves charge.
- Cordless solar design
- The lamp runs on an integrated solar-charged battery with no external charging port, so it can be placed on water without extension cords or wiring.
- Construction durability vs inflatables
- The Buly uses a solid roto-moulded polyethylene shell that is UV-resistant, rather than the inflatable PVC used by some floating solar lights, so it is better suited to long-term outdoor use.
- Solar panel maintenance
- A thin layer of dust or pollen on the integrated solar panel can reduce charging efficiency, so wipe the panel with a damp cloth about every two weeks during the outdoor season.

Sun-powered glow for your patio or pool
This solar-powered globe charges in sunlight and lights up on its own once the sun sets, so it can run cord-free on a patio or even float on the water. Lighting lasts up to six hours depending on the setting and weather, and the manufacturer recommends charging it in direct sunlight before first use and keeping the solar area clean and unobstructed.[1,4,6]
Caring for and storing your Buly floating lamp
Keep the Buly floating solar lamp looking its best by cleaning it with lukewarm water and neutral soap only, as the manufacturer advises avoiding cleaning agents with chemicals, abrasives, or solvents. For winter or long-term storage, keep it in a heated space and recharge it periodically to help preserve battery performance.[4]
