Bobcat Lighting LED Solar Path Light 60 Lumens-0.75W-Super Bright Outdoor Pole Pathway Lamp Stake Light- Warm White 3000K, Waterproof Landscape Lighting for Patio Yard Deck Path Lawn Backyard - 2 Pack

I have been burned many times in purchasing lights that did not provide much light. When I found these described on Amazon I was not sure.So i purchased a 2 pack to see how they work and what they look like. I was happy when i put them together because they were sure much better than all the previous. They preformed very good and give off a really good light. They are absolutely as described. I needed six but was not willing to purchase but two. With the results and great satisfaction i was happy to purchase the other 4 that i needed. Thanks for a very good product and it accomplishes good light where i wanted it to be. They are stronger, brighter, warm in color and look outstandig. i am a happy owner of 6 of these lights.

These are much brighter than regular solar lights. I’ve had them for two summers and they still work well. They do require two to five hours of direct sun to get a decent charge on the batteries. When fully charged they will burn til dawn with only minimal loss of brightness. I bought 1 inch broom handles and mounted the lights on them to get them up higher, about 4 feet, so they would throw the light over my deck. I did find that the bottom of the globe needed to be sealed in order to stop condensation coming in from the stakes which tend to hold rainwater. I simply covered the holes with duct tape to stop the condensation. I don’t know why the globes are open at the bottom, they should be sealed. I was convinced the solar cell was leaking and tried resealing them to no effect. The moisture was getting into the batteries and causing rusting of the contacts. Sealing the bottom of the globes soled the problems

Seems like the cheapest possible PVC construction, with burs on the cuts. Even the globe is lightweight plastic, but if it works, and doesn't blow away... I'm very happy with the light it gives off. And, I just purchased my second set of two. January 16, 2019 UPDATE: The lights actually contain three NiMH batteries, but they are only rated at 1200 mAh each. I have replaced the supplied batteries with others rated at 2000mAh, with my goal of getting them to stay on through the entire, long Seattle night.

These LED Solar Night lights claimed to have solved the two problems that solar lights have generally. Most are not nearly bright enough, anything under 10 Lumens is pretty useless. Most don't stay lit all night during winter months. Since there is some confusion about how Solar garden lights work, I'll quickly explain. During the day, the solar cells charge the NiMh battery (the older technology that cell phones used to use and some rechargeable products still use). When the solar cells detect sunset (no more sunlight), they automatically turn the LED light on (using the charge the battery received from the solar cell during the day). At sunrise (when they detect sunlight again), the LED light is turned off, and the solar cell starts recharging the battery again. Most of the lights last the whole night half the year (summer), because daylight lasts longer, so the sun is charging for a longer period each day, and night is shorter, so the amount of charge used to power he LED light is less. But in the winter, days are shorter, so charging is less, and night is longer so the amount of charge used by the LED light is greater. Because of that, the other problem witht solar lights is that they shut off in the middle of the night during the winter.This company claims to have solved both problems - they claim 60 lumens (I can't measure it, but they are one of the brightest garden lights I've seen, so count that as true, and they claim that their larger more efficient solar cells and a larger capacity battery to have solved the staying on all night problem - it's not winter, but it looks like this claim is true from it's staying on all night so far. So I would credit them on both counts.Here is the reason I only gave them 3 stars - the LED lights are an awful yellow color that is ugly enough that I won't buy more or recommend them. The housings also look a bit shoddy, so two strikes. If those two points are not a concern for you, then these lights are one of the best in terms of intensity and ability to stay on all night.I have to give a nod (and a slight criticism) to "Plow & Hearth" who makes what I consider the best of these Solar garden lights so far. They are more expensive. But they are higher quality construction - from metal and glass. They are bright enough (I've read between 15 and 50 lumens, but it's great). They also last most of the night in winter and all night the other half of the year. They have been out at least 3 years are the best out there I've seen. The one criticism I have (of Plow & Hearth) is that in the 3 years since I first bought sets of them, they have not increased the brightness, nor the duration nor reduced the price. All that time the components - solar cells, rechargeable batteries, and LED lights, have improved greatly and gotten cheaper, so they are not trying to keep up.Many people don't understand about these type of solar lights, so a very quick explanation. The battery gets charged and discharged every day - 365 times a year, just like cell phones. Because of the number of cycles, the battery will wear out in a year or two, and will stop holding much charge. Before cell phones started using (the much better) Lithium Ion batteries, the NiMh batteries they used to use wore out in about the same time as these batteries do. This isn't a problem - when some of your lights don't stay on very long, you just replace the NiMh battery in the Solar light and that usually solves the problem. Most solar lights use one battery that costs a few dollars and is about the size of a AA (but probably won't be a AA).

I have bought several different solar lighting systems. 'Most' of them have a small solar panel and a 'single' light bulb which does not shine as bright and last the battery power and lighting on cloudy days and obstructed sun charging conditions. These Bobcat Super Bright Solar Path lights are in a category of their own. FAR superior to all other lighting systems. 1) The solar panel is larger so charging is better. 2) There is an entire circle of multi LED bulbs which produce much more lighting than all other systems. 3) The clear plastic is designed to reflect lighting again, far superior to all other lighting systems. These are the finest solar lights to buy, by far. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it!

These replaced some Home Depot lights, but they are neither very bright, and at least this time of year not very long lasting. Perhaps in the summer with more daylight hours to recharge they would last longer. Would not purchase again. They are nice looking.Now that they have been in service for a few months they fail to light up at all. Not recommended.
