Cheap plastic junk stopped working after a few weeks BEWARE!! I was disappointed as soon as this item arrived in the mail, when I saw the tiny box it was packed in. Even moreso when I opened it, to find it was constructed entirely out of thin brittle plastic, the kind they used to make the old cheap transistor radios out of. I could only imagine how the sun and rain would erode this thing.I should have cut my losses on the shipping charges and returned it immediately, but instead decided not to judge a book by its cheesy cover. I installed the thing on the front of my carport, and was happy to see it light up the first time I tested it. (This is no doubt the point where other reviewers decided to post their glowing reviews).A few weeks later I noticed that the lights failed to turn on when I moved past the sensor. First chance I had I took it down and opened it up. I figured that the battery might have been defective, or old when they sent it. I’d try a new rechargeable battery and hopefully that’d fix it.I got another nasty surprise at that point: the battery is hard-wired in so when it goes bad, it’ll take an electrician just to change it. Which means that at the most, even if the unit you receive is better built than mine was, you’ll end up replacing the entire unit once the battery expires (which they do, usually after a year or two if you live in a four seasons area).When I went to remove the tiny transistorized control panel, the lights went on. Great, I thought. It isn’t the battery, or the LEDs. Now all I need to do is figure out what the problem is.To make a long (time wasted) story short, there was no way I could get the motion sensor to work, and as soon as I screwed the item back together the lights failed to work again.The best I could hope for, if I wanted to keep wasting time on it, was to get the LEDs to turn on full-time, and stay on as long as the solar charge held. This mean they’d be on all day and night, and most likely once the charge drained it would just keep draining before building up another charge strong enough to power the lights.Bottom line: this thing is very POORLY engineered with CHEAP parts that are likely fail soon after you purchase it. It probably costs under $3 to manufacture in some slave shop in China, so it’s incredibly overpriced at over $30 with shipping.It’s no wonder there is only a 30 day guarantee on this POS.I will never by another product from this company again.
Worse than a Flashlight!!! I took it out of the box and was excited at first. Yes the plastic is cheap, but it does work. THE ONLY PROBLEM is that the light is DIM!!! I was shocked. 15 LED bulbs! you would think it would blind you. Either the batteries were weak or the device is flawed (although I did charge the battery in sun for two days. Luckily I tested it before mounting it.I have cheap LED flashlights that are BRIGHTER THAN THIS “security light”. It emits a bluish light that’s around a 2 foot diameter spot. After that there is a VERY faint bluish glow that doesn’t illuminate anything. If you placed it on a roof it would light only ONE trash can! DON’T waste your money. Sadly it is only worth $30 but performs worse; now I’ll have to spend more money. At least the return process is simple. Still waiting on my $30 refund.
nice light, does the job, and saves energy This was an easy to install item. It is attached to the shed across from my house and the light is angled toward my side door. All I have to do is begin to open the door and the light turns on. In the dark of night, the light is more than sufficiently bright. It has been great to let the dog out and allow her to move about and she triggers the light and comes to the door. I would really recommend this clean and green lighting resource.Update three months later: Working flawlessly, even in the shorter days of autumn. Bright, does the job, easy for me to hook and unhook the dog leashes from their collars at night. If I had the need, I would get another one of these, for sure.
