Quality product at a great price!

When I see this type of lighting in the neighborhood I am always unimpressed by the light output they produce. So, when this appeared in my gold box I figured I would take a chance with just four of them. Now I wish I would have bought another set. I have been using them for a couple of months now and they produce nice bright white light every night.

They come with Nicad AA rechargeable batteries. I would have preferred Ni-Mh, which last much longer and hold more power. Before I assembled these I took the batteries and gave them a full charge with a charger I have, which is good for the batteries. If I see the lights looking a little dim, I will take out the batteries and give them a full refresh and recharge, which will keep the batteries in good shape for a long time. Also, I will be able to replace the batteries with a set of Ni-Mh that I have plenty of.

In order to keep the solar collector working properly, you should clean the solar film periodically. So, these really are not set and forget as one might imagine. However, this is an excellent product and I am very happy with my purchase. With LED lights and AA rechargeable batteries, I expect these to last many years with minimal care.

These are very nice!!!

I got these on a gold box deal a while back and they are great and they look nice too. I can place these just about anywhere a they blend great due to the unique coloring. I have heard a lot of people complain about solar lights breaking easily but these wont. I dropped one on accident and it didn't harm it at all. They are metal and durable. I want to get a few more sets myself!!

Reliable and Easy to Install, but Lights Die Out Too Fast

These lights were very easy to put together and get in the ground--took no more than 15 minutes to get all of them set up.

I have them in my front walkway and they are exposed to full sun all day so they can get a full charge via their solar panels. They come on automatically and reliably at sunset.

However, they last only 4-5 hours before dying out (the rechargeable batteries lose the charge). Also, the LED bulbs have a bright BLUE tint to them, which contrasts the more yellow tint of the rest of my house lights.

Overall, a good product, but I wish that they lasted longer before burning out for the night. I also wish the LED wasn't so bright blue in color.

I'm happy with them

I had gotten these on a lightning deal, for $20. If that deal comes up again, I'd purchase another set. They're nice looking, but not well made. I don't know of many landscape lights that would survive well after being stepped on or tripped over, and these are no exception. I honestly believe tripping over one of these might destroy it. I chose to put mine in a lightly traveled area, yet dark enough to warrant some additional low lighting. The picture does not show the full stake; a plastic piece (stake) that is inserted to the metal stake showing. It's not very sturdy, and might possibly cause problems with extreme weather, kind of like plastic plant pots left outside through all seasons, typical NJ weather. I might be bringing mine in for the winter. I did dig & toss the dirt before driving the stake into the ground, which was a painless process. The light itself is naturally not overwhelming, but bright enough in the spot I put them in to illuminate the path a bit. I have them in a very sunny spot, from late morning to late afternoon direct, hot sun. They come on at dusk. Normally, the landing off my deck is pitch black, so the little gleam of light is much appreciated. I came into this purchase NOT expecting a bright light; seriously, solar lights just don't cut it for some. I wanted something that would give me some light, at a low cost, that didn't require wiring or worrying about where to plug them in.
I don't know the amount of time these lights will stay on; if I manage to wake up in the middle of the night, I'll check and edit my review.

Not really impressed

The plastic stakes broke quickly on two of our lights within the first couple of days. Both were accidentally bumped in to (not even with a lot of force) and broke immediately. They look nice, but don't hold up well. Also, it would be nice if the light was a bit brighter. The light is dim and doesn't last long after dark.
