That perpetual source of energy means you no longer need to buy disposable batteries, but it\u2019s not the only manner in which the Solar Steplight is better than the original. The new version is bigger, brighter, and it packs more features, too.<\/p>\n<p>I criticized the Ring Steplight Battery for being expensive if you don\u2019t already have the <a class=\"productLink\" href=\"#\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" data-productid=\"1443382\" data-product-name=\"Ring Smart Lighting Bridge\" data-vars-product-name=\"Ring Smart Lighting Bridge\" data-vars-link-position-id=\"000\" data-vars-link-position=\"Body Text\" data-po=\"amazon-ajax\" data-product-id=\"1443382\" data-vars-product-id=\"1443382\" data-bkc=\"HomeTech\" data-bkmfr=\"Ring\" data-vars-bkmfr=\"Ring\" data-bkvndr=\"\" data-vars-bkvndr=\"\" data-amazon-ajax-link=\"true\" data-amazon-ajax-link-loaded=\"false\" data-amazon-ajax-link-asin=\"B07KXBX65F\" data-amazon-ajax-link-subtag=\"US-003-3563776-000-1443382-web-20\">$50 Ring Bridge<\/a>, and that\u2019s true here, too. In fact, the Solar version costs $5 more than the old version: $29.99 versus $24.99 for the original. That added cost, however, is instantly offset because you don\u2019t need to buy batteries (and in my experience with the original, I\u2019ve had to do that about every six months).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-style: italic; -en-clipboard: true;\">This review is part of TechHive\u2019s coverage of the best smart lighting, <\/span><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">where you\u2019ll find<\/span> <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">reviews of competing products, plus a buyer\u2019s guide to the features you should consider when shopping.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you want one and don\u2019t already have the bridge that\u2019s needed to connect Ring\u2019s smart lighting products to your Wi-Fi network, I recommend buying the two-pack of Solar Steplights that includes the bridge. That bundle was selling on for $79.99 on Amazon as of this writing, saving you $30 over the cost of buying the three components individually\u2014you\u2019re essentially getting the second steplight for free. It would be great if Ring offered discounts on purchases of multiple steplights\u2014with or without the bridge\u2014since many people will need to illuminate more than one step. Alas, they don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"large \"><a class=\"zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/ring-solar-steplight-at-night-2-100849738-orig.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img border=\"0\" alt=\"ring solar steplight at night 2\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-imageid=\"100849738\" data-license=\"IDG\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/ring-solar-steplight-at-night-2-100849738-large.jpg\" class=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/a> <small class=\"credit\">Michael Brown \/ IDG<\/small><figcaption>\n<p>The new Ring Solar Steplight casts a large pool of bright light that can help ensure you don\u2019t trip on a step.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<aside class=\"emo emo-sb\">\n<h6 class=\"nav-title\">Starter kit<\/h6>\n<div class=\"product-details\"><span class=\"product-name\" data-productid=\"1444440\">Ring Smart Lighting Solar Steplight (two-pack starter kit)<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<h2>Bigger and brighter<\/h2>\n<p>The Solar Steplight is slightly larger than the battery-powered original, mostly on its top where the solar panel is installed (it measures 3.43 x 2.19 x 4.0 inches, compared to the Steplight Battery\u2019s 3.58 x 3.58 x 1.85-inch dimensions). The LED light source is larger and much brighter, producing 50 lumens of brightness at a color temperature of 3,500K versus 35 lumens at the same temp for the battery-powered product.<\/p>\n<p>As with the original, you can use a slider in the Ring app to dim the light to stretch its battery life, and an ambient light sensor will prevent the light from turning on in response to motion when it\u2019s not dark enough to be needed. The new light\u2019s onboard motion sensor has the same 120-degree field of view and 15-foot of range as the original.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll find a significant improvement in the Solar Steplight\u2019s ability to turn its light on and off according to a schedule\u2014including a dusk to dawn feature that keeps the light on at a reduced brightness level until motion triggers it to brighten\u2014a feature that would prematurely drain the battery on the original model.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"medium right\"><a class=\"zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/ring-solar-steplight-dusk-to-dawn-100849736-orig.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img border=\"0\" alt=\"ring solar steplight dusk to dawn\" width=\"300\" height=\"600\" data-imageid=\"100849736\" data-license=\"IDG\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/ring-solar-steplight-dusk-to-dawn-100849736-medium.jpg\" class=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/a> <small class=\"credit\">Michael Brown \/ IDG<\/small><figcaption>\n<p>The ability to have the steplight come on from dusk to dawn is one of its best software features.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Ring Bridge enables all of Ring\u2019s smart lighting products to be integrated with the company\u2019s increasingly broad range of other home security products, including its video doorbells, indoor and outdoor cameras, and the excellent Ring Alarm home security system.<\/p>\n<p>Almost any device in the Ring ecosystem can trigger any other (the door\/window sensors in the Ring Alarm kit are an important exception). If you have steps in front of your door, for example, the Steplight Solar\u2019s you can program the onboard motion sensor t o trigger your Ring Video Doorbell to start recording, without waiting for a visitor to come into range of the camera\u2019s motion sensor.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"nativo-promo nativo-promo-1 smartphone tablet desktop\" id=\"\"\/>\n<p>If you have one of Ring\u2019s new smart light bulbs in your porchlight or inside your home, you could program the Steplight Solar to trigger those lights to turn on, giving a potential intruder the impression that someone is home and has already spotted them.<\/p>\n<h2>A 50-device maximum<\/h2>\n<p>Ring\u2019s Wi-Fi bridge is limited to supporting 50 Ring smart lighting devices, and Ring anticipates just one being deployed in each household. Even homeowners who deploy lots of steplights, path lights, discrete motion sensors, and smart light bulbs, however, are unlikely to bump against that limit.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, Ring offers several other smart spotlights and floodlights that connect directly to your Wi-Fi network without relying on the bridge. And as described above, those devices can also interact with Ring\u2019s smart lighting devices. Finally, Ring offers a <span class=\"productLink\" data-productid=\"1444441\">low-voltage transformer<\/span> that can bring traditional wired landscape lighting into the Ring ecosystem. One of those $100 devices can be wired to very long strings of conventional path lights or spotlights (up to a maximum of 200 watts), and you <em>can<\/em> deploy more than one of those in a single household.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"large \"><a class=\"zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/ring-steplight-solar-battery-100849740-orig.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img border=\"0\" alt=\"ring steplight solar battery\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-imageid=\"100849740\" data-license=\"IDG\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/ring-steplight-solar-battery-100849740-large.jpg\" class=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/a> <small class=\"credit\">Michael Brown \/ IDG<\/small><figcaption>\n<p>This single large rechargeable battery is vastly superior to the three C cells the Ring Steplight Battery uses.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>You can also group Ring devices together, so that one can trigger any of the others. In my home, for example, I have a Ring Floodlight Cam and a Ring Floodlight on either side of the garage\u2019s roll-up doors; a Ring Video Doorbell next to the side garage door; and a Ring Stick Up Cam inside the garage. These are in a group labeled \u201cGarage.\u201d I have a Ring Steplight Battery illuminating the step next to my front porch grouped with a pair of Ring Pathlights in my front garden (labeled \u201cFront); and a Ring motion sensor and the new Pathlight Solar are installed near my back porch in a group labeled \u201cBackyard.\u201d<\/p>\n<aside class=\"nativo-promo nativo-promo-2 tablet desktop smartphone\" id=\"\"\/>\n<p>Opening my back door triggers the motion sensor, which sends a message to the Solar Steplight to come to full brightness, but it also turns on the two floodlights at the front of the garage, so I don\u2019t trip over anything in my path should I turn that direction. Since Ring\u2019s smart lighting products all support Alexa, I can turn on any light individually or any group of lights with a simple voice command.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"large \"><a class=\"zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/ring-solar-steplight-solar-panel-100849739-orig.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img border=\"0\" alt=\"ring solar steplight solar panel\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-imageid=\"100849739\" data-license=\"IDG\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/ring-solar-steplight-solar-panel-100849739-large.jpg\" class=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/a> <small class=\"credit\">Michael Brown \/ IDG<\/small><figcaption>\n<p>The large solar panel on top of the Ring Solar Pathlight enables it to operate all night long.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>A major improvement<\/h2>\n<p>I like pretty much everything about the Ring Steplight Battery apart from the fact that it runs on three C-cell batteries that must be recycled every six months or so. The Ring Steplight Solar is a major improvement over that. Not only does its battery get trickle-charged by the light of the sun, I can also have it illuminate my back step all night long, without needing to depend on motion or any other device to wake it up.<\/p>\n<p>As with the battery-powered model, on the other hand, the Ring Solar Steplight is expensive at $30 a pop. If you need to illuminate a flight of stairs or have lots of steps all around the outside of your home, that cost will add up quickly. Dumb solar-powered steplights\u2014even ones with motion sensors\u2014can be had for about a third of the price as these. That said, the smart features available here are unparalleled, particularly if you\u2019re already deep into the Ring ecosystem.<\/p>\n<div class=\"end-note\">\n<p>\t\t<!-- blx4 #2010 blox4.html  --><\/p>\n<div id=\"\" class=\"blx blxParticleendnote blxM2010  blox4_html  blxC24070\">Note: When you purchase something after clicking links in our articles, we may earn a small commission.
