I have seen the light... not! January 5, 2008 Archer Koch (San Luis Obispo, CA, USA) 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
Based on the statement, "Our most powerful solar floodlight... provide improved light output," I purchased three sets. Unfortunately, the light output is very disappointing. IMHO, you shouldn't expect anything more than mere accent lighting from this unit. To refer to these as "floodlights" is to misrepresent this product. There certainly is no flood of light, so don't expect to light up the night. I've got a brighter flashlight on my keychain.
love these lights, amazon has lowest price, too! October 22, 2007 laura nisbet (near Chapel Hill, NC) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I just ordered 3 sets of these, to add to the two i bought from Lowes last week. I paid 44. per set (free shipping to store) at Lowes, and only $29. with SS shipping, here. These lights are nice and bright, casting nice light on 10-12' talls trees, longer beam than i expected. These are not just for bushes, they work on smaller trees and if you shine them downwards you have a very bright light on whatever you aim them at. Nice long cables allow you to place panel in sunlight and hide light elements in the shrubbery, in the shade. You can stab them in the ground again and again and the plastic point does not bend. I am happy with these for 44.00, thrilled with them for only 29.00. Go, A-zon!
Not worth it February 29, 2008 ragrillo (Winston-Salem, NC) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I read the reviews and even though my expectations were not very high, I purchased a set. Not even my already low expectations were met. As somebody mentioned, flashlights are more powerful than these lights. They are white LED's, so the light is rather ghostly: blueish and very dimmed. Don't buy them unless you are looking for a rather undefined glow in a very limited spot. Another piece of advice: make sure you have a spot for the solar charger that remains exposed to the sun for most of the day. Otherwise, these lights are a one-night show. More powerful batteries will not help. On a positive note, I was well impressed by the construction: rather sturdy and good quality plastic.
No value for me April 2, 2008 J. Key 6 out of 11 found this review helpful
These lights provide no value to me. I tried to light a short ornamental ficus tree in my courtyard and found that 3 lites would only lite the 1st 3' of the 5' trunk. The blue-white lite is also not very revealing on green leaves. It needs a little more warmth (red) to illuminate the leaves. A larger battery and fluorescent would probably do a better job. I am returning them today and continuing my search.
lights work well August 23, 2007 Austin (Texas) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I bought these to light up some dark stairs near my pool. They put out a bright and white light. I recommend these over any other solar lights I have seen. I bought 2 more to light other areas after I saw how well they worked.
