Using the power of the sun, light any dark area and add extra security with the Sunforce Solar Motion 60 LED Security Light. This light automatically turns on when motion is detected, making it ideal for remote locations, garages, pathways, sheds, security & lighting dark areas. Features include: three multi-crystal silicon batteries (included), 60 super-bright LEDs, a 1 watt, 6 volt amorphous solar panel and ABS plastic and aluminum housing.
About Amorphous Solar Technology
Amorphous solar panels work all daylight conditions, even on cloudy days. Best for smaller output needs, temporary set ups, and areas that do not receive predictable sun conditions, the amorphous solar panels guarantee that your solar lights will work anywhere.
Product Features
- Made with ABS plastic and aluminum for added durability
- Solar panel is amorphous (1W, 6V) and can be mounted almost anywhere
- Lumen output: 850
- No main power or wiring required
- Working Time: 30 minutes, 72 times, one time lighting 25 seconds

Bright solar powered motion light where needed This light is very easy to set up and seems sturdy. The light housing itself is metal instead of plastic which I prefer. I replaced included rechargeable batteries with higher rated AA mHA ones. I charged the light inside for a couple of days and mounted to the outside deck. The motion sensor is sensitive and accurate. The light is small but illuminates better than expected. It lights approximately 200-300 square foot area very well. I don’t know how it will handle in the long run. Our Wyoming winters can reek havoc on outdoor products, but the product is performing very well right now. Light includes customizable control settings for motion radius, light sensitivity and illumination duration. The only con would be that the mounting bracket only allows the light to pivot up and down and not side to side, so this does limit mounting options….the only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5.
Finnicky – worth it in the end Pros:Nice, bright light – better than expected.Adjustable settings for: 1. what constitutes dusk when the light begins to motion sense; 2. how sensitive the IR detector is to movement, and; 3. how long the light remains on.Selectable modes for auto, on, or off.IR sensor is adjustable up / down and left / right, separate from light.Power cord from solar cell is very long and gives you more flexibility on installation locations.Cons:Mounting hardware (not the units themselves) is not galvanized or otherwise weather resistant (e.g. stainless). I used a silicon based caulk to cover screw heads and seams.Light is only adjustable up / down so getting the light to face where you want may involve mounting additional hardware.Adjustable settings have considerable hysteresis. (I was up and down a ladder many times)I bought three of these; two of them took considerable time (15+ minutes) to start turning off in Auto mode, even with the sensitivity and time adjustments minimized. The third worked as soon as the switch was turned. All three had been given the same amount of time to charge beforehand (5 days).I took one star for setup because I had almost given up on two of the three purchased. The adjustment settings were initially unresponsive and the lights just stayed on in Auto mode. When they finally turned off, everything started working as indicated. The adjustment knobs are not linear, so I recommend getting a second person to perform a walking test so that the first can stay on the ladder to tweak the settings. Also recommend using some sealant on the mounting hardware to keep it from rusting. I kept picturing two years from now: we’re inside and something hits the side of our house and it looks like someone is shining a flashlight in the window as one of these lights breaks away and dangles from the power cord because of cheap hardware.Once we were able to move beyond the setup and enjoy them, these lights redeemed some stars for how bright they are and the fact that they’re solar with motion detection. I truly didn’t expect the intensity to be this good and to last for so long. I’m sure this will vary with the availability of optimal charging sunlight, but the performance, brightness, function, and price are well worth it so far.FYI – the solar cell mounts to a ball-joint bracket on one of the long sides. The quickest comparison that comes to mind is the rearview mirror in a car. Except the range of movement is better on the solar cell. 360 degrees of rotation, and 180 degrees of tilt. Combine this with the length of power cord supplied and you have greater latitude on where you can install everything.Very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it to others. Feel free to respond with any questions or feedback. I’ll try to remember to post a follow up in 6 months and see how they’re holding up.
