LED landscape bulb sourcing on the two main English-language B2B platforms is concentrated in Guangdong, China, with PAR36 spot lamps at 6W, 9W, and 13W and 3000K warm white dominating the low-voltage outdoor category as of July 2026 [S3].
Factory-gate pricing on Made-in-China.com for PAR36 3000K LED landscape spot bulbs runs US$11.80–14.20 per piece at a 200-piece minimum order quantity from audited Dongguan Kangjuhong Photoelectric Technology [S3], while Shenzhen Sroada Tech lists an IP65 solar-power decorative garden fixture at US$21.00–22.50 per piece (1-piece MOQ) and a cracked-orb glass solar garden light at US$0.99 unit price [S2].
Product typology across the two leading sourcing channels
HKTDC Sourcing classifies outdoor LED landscape offerings into roughly four mechanical form factors: PAR36 spotlamps for in-ground uplighting, solar integrated garden fixtures with integrated PV modules, low-voltage (typically 12V AC) LED bulbs for retrofits into existing halogen landscapes, and architectural bollard/pillar lamps [S1].
The same taxonomy on Made-in-China.com shows an almost identical split, with solar LED landscape fixtures forming the largest sub-category and LED landscape bulbs (low-voltage retrofits) the second-largest by listing count as of 2026-08 [S2][S3]. Wattage bands cluster at 3W, 5W, 6W, 7W, 9W, 12W, and 13W for AC-driven PAR36 bulbs, while solar fixtures typically carry 1W–6W LED loads paired with 2V–6V/300mA–600mA mini PV panels and 600mAh–2000mAh Li-ion or Ni-MH battery packs [S2][S3].
Supplier concentration, MOQ economics, and where the price floor sits
Shenzhen Sroada Tech Co., Limited (Guangdong, manufacturer/factory) and Dongguan Kangjuhong Photoelectric Technology Co. (Guangdong, audited supplier) account for the most visible listings on the landscape-lighting-bulb and solar-landscape-LED pages, with all named factories in the top results headquartered in Guangdong province [S2][S3].
The price floor for solar garden LED fixtures on the platform is US$0.99 per piece for cracked-orb glass warm-white 3000K units [S2], and the price ceiling for IP65 solar-power outdoor decorative fixtures in the same listing set is US$22.50 per piece [S2]. For non-solar PAR36 LED landscape spot lamps, the band is tighter at US$11.80–14.20 per piece across 6W, 9W, and 13W wattage options at 3000K color temperature [S3]. MOQs split cleanly: solar garden fixtures offer 1-piece MOQs suited to distributor sampling, while PAR36 spotlamps require 200-piece MOQs that fit wholesale and project-tender pipelines [S2][S3].
Spec gates buyers actually filter on (IP rating, CCT, wattage, voltage)
IP65 is the dominant ingress-protection rating quoted across solar landscape LED listings on Made-in-China.com, with both Shenzhen Sroada and other Guangdong suppliers naming it explicitly in product titles for outdoor decorative and garden fixtures [S2]. IP67/IP68 entries are rare in the landscape-bulb sub-category and concentrate in in-ground well-light SKUs that the same sourcing pages do not foreground.
Color temperature convergence at 3000K warm white is strong for both PAR36 low-voltage spotlamps and solar garden fixtures listed in July 2026 [S2][S3]. 4000K neutral white and 6000K cool white SKUs exist on the same channels but appear less frequently in the top-ranked results. Operating voltage for low-voltage PAR36 LED landscape bulbs is 12V AC/DC across all visible Kangjuhong SKUs, matching the legacy halogen MR16/PAR36 landscape transformer infrastructure that dominates the North American retrofit market. Solar fixtures run on internal 1.2V–3.7V battery packs charged from mono- or polycrystalline mini-PV modules, with no external driver requirement.
Selection criteria: solar-integrated vs low-voltage PAR36 vs line-voltage bollards
Solar-integrated LED garden fixtures (US$0.99–22.50, IP65, 1W–6W LED load, integrated PV+battery) suit residential pathways, decorative garden accents, and any site where trenching low-voltage cable is impractical, with the trade-off being limited nighttime run-time (typically 6–10 hours from a full sun day) and lumen output capped at roughly 50–200 lm per fixture [S2].
Low-voltage PAR36 LED spotlamps (US$11.80–14.20, 12V AC/DC, 6W/9W/13W, 3000K) are the correct pick for tree uplighting, architectural facade washing, and sign lighting on existing halogen landscapes, with the trade-off being the requirement for a 12V landscape transformer and weatherproof wire-nut connections at every fixture. Line-voltage (120V/220V) LED bollard and pillar lamps, catalogued on HKTDC under Pillar Light and Bridge Lamp, are specified for commercial site lighting, pathway illumination, and code-required egress lighting, with the trade-off being the need for a licensed electrician and conduit-rated wiring. Buyers comparing the three form factors should match on (a) installation labor cost, (b) lumen output per dollar, and (c) maintenance access over a 5–10 year service life.
Compliance, certification, and the standards that actually show up on invoices
CE, RoHS, and FCC appear as the three most-cited compliance marks on Made-in-China.com LED landscape-bulb listings, with audited suppliers like Dongguan Kangjuhong Photoelectric Technology listing RoHS-aligned product certification filters at the category level [S3]. HKTDC Sourcing exposes a Product Certification filter (Not Available / specific marks) and a Company Certification filter at the category facet for the same landscape-bulb taxonomy [S1].
UL listing and DLC qualification are less common in the landscape-bulb sub-category than in commercial high-bay or street-lighting categories, and buyers specifying UL 1838 (Low Voltage Landscape Lighting Systems) or UL 1598 (Luminaires) need to confirm certification at the SKU level rather than relying on category-level signals. For European projects, EN 60598-1 (luminaires general safety) and EN 60598-2-7 (portable luminaires for garden use) are the relevant baseline standards that overseas buyers should request test reports against, alongside the RoHS and CE documents already standard on the platform.
Failure modes and field reliability signals to watch in 2026
The dominant field failure for solar-integrated LED landscape fixtures is battery capacity loss after 12–24 months, driven by the Ni-MH or low-capacity Li-ion cells used to hit the US$0.99–5.00 price band; buyers specifying the higher US$15–22 SKUs typically get LiFePO4 cells with longer cycle life but pay roughly 3–5x the unit cost [S2].
For low-voltage PAR36 LED spotlamps, the dominant field failure is driver/transformer compatibility rather than LED module failure, with 12V AC magnetic transformers and many electronic halogen drivers delivering voltage spikes above 13.5V that shorten LED driver life. Specifying an integrated constant-current driver rated for 10V–15V AC input and pairing it with an electronic LED-compatible landscape transformer removes the most common service call. Water-ingress failure at the wire-nut or stake-connection point is the second-most-common field issue, and IP65-rated gel-filled wire nuts or silicone-sealed stake connections are the field fix used across the industry. The 3000K color temperature that dominates 2026 listings also tracks current DarkSky-friendly lighting guidance for residential landscapes, where warm-white sources below 3000K are now preferred for wildlife-sensitive sites.
Trackable signals for the next sourcing cycle: (1) LiFePO4 cell adoption in sub-US$10 solar garden SKUs, (2) UL 1838 / DLC listing penetration on PAR36 12V LED spotlamps from Guangdong factories, and (3) the appearance of 2700K CCT options in the top-ranked Made-in-China.com results as DarkSky-friendly procurement expands.
