Much Better Quality I spent nearly 20 years replacing Intermatic Malibu lights which at best would last 5 years. For about the same price, these lights appear to be made much better in several ways.Bolts are used to screw the top onto the base instead of directly onto the plastic lens. With the Malibus, either the lens breaks from the pressure of the top, or the top blows off down the street.The connector box is well designed to make a good water tight connection. With the Malibus you have to squeeze real hard with your thumbs, but you can use a screwdriver on these to force the prongs into the wire.2 Year Update: These lights have held up very well, however when I ordered additional lights I was disappointed to find that they have replaced the connector box with a contraption similar to the Malibus that you have to squeeze around the supply wire. Still think these lights are far better than the Malibus.
Flimsy connectors! Did I get a bad batch? These lights get great reviews, and they’re priced significantly cheaper than Malibu, so I ordered 12. They assemble easily, and appear solidly made, though, in truth, the fixtures are almost identical (if cheaper) than the Malibu. The few that work (see below) are nice and bright with a pleasing warm color temp.But when I went to connect them, 10 out of 12 of the connectors cracked in half! 10 out of 12!!!! Specifically, these connectors, like Malibu’s, have two interlocking clips that you line up and push together around the wire. Each clip has an ergonomic thumb depression. The crack would occur straight across the middle of the thumb depression upon applying even a small amount of pressure to push the clips together. I was using a thicker 12agw wire, but the lights are supposed to be compatible with that.Very frustrating. To the manufacturer’s credit, I called them on a Friday afternoon, easily reached a friendly, English-speaking CSR, and they are supposedly going to send me some “connector boxes” to replace the clips. Installing those will take more effort, but at least it should resolve the problem with the flimsy clips.I don’t see anyone else complaining about this, so maybe I just got a bad batch.
