Why I Designed It
Many solar fence lights are made for larger posts and do not fit standard 70 mm fence posts. At the same time, not every post needs a light.
This design solves both problems by providing:
- A protective cap for all posts.
- An adapter version that allows larger solar lights to be mounted securely.
- A matching standard cap for locations where lighting is not needed.
This keeps the entire fence looking consistent while giving you complete freedom to choose where lights are installed.
