Hi Vicky, You are correct, this kit is a self assembly kit which requires soldering. The only other thing you might want is some wire if you need to put the bulb a distance away from the PCB. Full instructions for assembling the kit are provided, and the battery holder and bulb are connected as in the diagram above. I recommend: https://www.kitronik.co.uk/26101-economy-soldering-iron-mains-powered-25w.html https://www.kitronik.co.uk/26109-rosin-cored-solder-17g-dispenser-tinlead.html https://www.kitronik.co.uk/c2457-multi-strand-cable-702-10m.html Rob

Hi I'm a complete beginner! To make the garden lamp I assume I'll also need to buy a soldering iron and solder. Am I correct and is that all I will need if i buy the items listed for the automatic garden lamp kit? Thanks Vicky
