Just a guess? Could it be a spotlight like you get at regular home improvement stores or hardware stores?
Sounds like an Halogen bulb. Could be a 120 volt MR16 frosted flood reflector with a GU10 Base. Just be sure what you get is for outside. When putting in, do not touch the lamp.
Take a picture of the socket and take it to your local hardware store. They can identify what type of bulb it takes.
It sounds like a Appliance Bulb, tho this sounds crazy. But if it is that small, it may be. I would look into a Mercury lite, then this will light up at dusk, and off in the morn. This would be great for this. Talk to a hardware clerk, and I am sure he/she can help you., or give more directions., or there maybe info that came with the lamp about the size of the bulb to use. Best wishes, J.

Gee I've never run into anything like that. May be you could take pictures with your phone and check when you get to Home Depot or Lowes or some place like that. I'd be interested so let me know what you find out. Can't be solar??? Only reason I ask is because of you saying it looks like you just stick the lights into the sockets. Have a good evening. I'm off to work in the yard.
If there is a regular hardware store in your town, I suggest you photograph & measure the socket. Take this to the store & ask if they can identify it. Often, the "old-fashioned" hardware stores' employees are more knowledgeable about unusual items. Good Luck!!
Try candelabra bulbs for size.....like the kind that would be used inside a hanging fixture in living room or kitchen etc..they sound similar to what we have in the rental we are in .
