estly I had low expectations for these lights as I have had solar lights in the past and they always disappoint. I figured I'd give these a try and if they didn't work I could always return them. Well what a pleasant surprise! I have always wanted to uplight my home but didn't want to pay to hardwire it, so 6 of these did the job! I have a westerly exposure and these lights stay on at the high level for over 8 hours. They all come on at the same time which is another plus. I chose the warm white and they really do mimic incandescent bulbs...I hate the cold look of LED. Even if they only last a year, I'm willing to purchase them again for the price and replace them as I love the look that much.The lights are well made and perform well. I've tested 2 out to light a dark area of my walkway and they perform well. Survived a major deluge so they have proved to be waterproof. Stakes are sturdy and you have 2 height options. In addition, you can use screws to attach to walls if you want lighting for your house or shed.This is the second set of these that I have purchased. The first set has lasted for 5 years. They look like total garbage, due to sun fading and kid-damage but they still work just fine. I use them to light up a landscaping tree in the front of the house. This new batch is used to light flags near the pool and they are working great so far. They come on right before it gets dark and (on the low light setting) they last through the night in the summer. In the winter they usually only make it part way through. I would estimate 8 hours on low setting if it was a clear sunny day. I have never tried them on the high setting.I have ordered so many outdoor solar lights. It's a crap shoot sometimes. These are phenomenal! Even on the low setting I can't believe how much light they produce. I have 4 beautiful palm trees in my backyard. One for each of them. These are strong, well built and shine all the way to the top. The light under the leaves is breathtaking. Trees are about 25 feet high if you are in the market. Neighbors love it and ordered some as well.We live in Maine and on a country road. We purchased these lights last November 2021 and now it is August 2022. The lights are on the side of our house facing our driveway and walkway to the back door. The lights have been a LIFESAVER!! They light up an area that was always dark and they are STILL WORKING 9 months later!!!! We have been able to come and go at all hours of the night with good lighting. These lights are the BEST!!!!!I purchased this solar light three years ago and it's still SO bright! I live in the Northeast, where we get all four seasons and lots of snow.. this solar light is outside full time. I cannot believe it is so bright and still going strong! Highly recommend!I like the fact that they are to brightness settings one bright and one medium brightImpressed with the longevity. Two settings - low and high (and on low it stays lit till the morning light). Very impressed with the product!+ The light seems to work even without much daylight- The on off button doesn’t tell you when it is on or off, and you only know for certain when the light comes on that eveningImpressed. Summer has seen them stay on for a good number of hours. Winter, will surely be different.This product does not work. We ordered 2 and after initially givng a little light one night they now give none.We have had so many cheap LED outdoor lights that didn’t cost much but also gave poor light and lasted maybe 2 years, tops, then trash.These units have 4 strong LEDs in each head and a big solar panel to do a good job charging the battery. There is a HI/LO switch for brightness.....we find that the LOW setting works just fine to light up our fountain.These cost more but worth it.After reading positive reviews, I was tempted to order four or six of these, but thankfully settled for two. Thank goodness. We have never been able to get these lights to work.At first, we thought they needed more sunlight, so moved them around the yard. Then we thought there might be an on/off switch we couldn't find. Then we wasted time trying to troubleshoot online.Alas, headed for the garbage--and too late to return them.
