The batteries in my solar lights are 600 mAh. Can I still use the 1000 mAh batteries in the lights?

The higher 1000mah batteries will do just fine & when fully charged will allow the lights to stay on longer. I replaced my 800 mAh batteries with these & the lights are bright again & stay on all night long.

I replaced my 600's with 1000's and they worked beautifully for a few days but now they only last for a couple of hours, if that. However, the straight answer to your question is yes you can.

mine were too and these are better last longer and still going strong my oem 600 mah batteries were done in 3 months

Yes you can, I changed mine and they are a little brighter and stay on all night.

Yes..will use 1.5 & 3.0 amp hr 18v Makita batteries..This is a fantastic light...really bright with wide coverage. Last forever on a big battery.

I did not use on solar light, but these are definitely better than those batt that came with solar lights. My original solar light batt has a rating of 600mAh. These are ranging from 1000-2000 mAh.

First of all, that is not at all the use they were designed for. I suppose it could work, but the specs say the batteries last up to 40 hours, so if you used the lights much at all, you would be changing the batteries quite often.

No you don't need rechargeable batteries. There is a built in battery inside that is rechargeable by solar. Great light tho.

I am not sure. Some seem to have higher mah than others. Lol. Beware that these will blow up a lot of lights because of their higher voltage.

Yes, you can. These lights come with their own transformer, just connect to a 110 volt source, they work great!!

No. It assumes you will use the lithium 123 batteries that many other lights use. These are non rechargeable batteries.

The solar panel produces approx 500mA in full sun. So, a pair of 900mAh AAAs would be 1800mAh and require approx 4 hours of full sun light. If it is "semi sunny" (say 50% of full sun intensity), it would require twice as much time...I hope this helps.

I use these batteries in some of my solar lights, and I believe they are specifically meant for that use. The charger is built into the device. Just make sure the device is turned on and the solar panel can get some direct sunlight and they will charge quite well. They have worked well for me so far.

As long as you can find non-rechargeable batteries of the correct size. Some of these lights use unusual size batteries are something that I have only seen in a rechargeable format.

Not sure how you plan on using them, but you need to know your wattage needs. these battery's are rated 3.7V 5000mAh (5 amps for 1 hour) So 2.5 Amp for 2 hours, 1.25 Amps for 4 Hours, etc...

I still have the original batteries inside and I only use it a few times. It still 1000 lumens.

Yes, assuming you're battery has around 100 RC (amps reserve capacity). The lights use 1.5 amps each per hour your battery should last around 5.55 hrs assuming a full charge and a good battery to full discharge. This is theoretical of course and many factors could lower that and likely will. Also make sure your fuses and wires are sized for the amps.

Yes you can change the batteries thay are in the solar panel, AAA rechargeable , I don't know about the LEDs

Don't know the mAh on these batteries but I use them in my hat light and they last for days using them 4hrs a day minimum. It now cost me under $.50 to change batteries vs the $10 for name brand. When you swap out 4 batteries in your hat and it cost almost as much as the hat it doesn't take long to figure this one out. The big name batteries last the same amount of time as these for 20 times the cost. I'll take the $.50 option thanks.

Good question. I would suppose you can, as long as the rechargeable battery mets the voltage/current specifications for the light. If you aren't sure, I'd recommend against making the change.
