GIGALUMI Solar Lights Outdoor Waterproof,16 Pack Stainless Steel LED Solar Garden Lights for Patio, Lawn, Yard and Landscape(Cold White)

The entire 16-pack of lights have lasted for two years (including over two long, dark winters). I am very impressed with their longevity. The lights are attractive, much better looking than much more expensive options I've found at the hardware store. It's true that they don't emit a lot of light, but what does one expect from small, solar lights? They are a great value for the price.

I bought 6 packages of these lights, one package at a time, throughout the spring. That is 96 total lights. Each time I did a flower bed or walk, I decided to order another and do more. They are a good product provided you understand what you are getting.These are cheaply made. The aluminum tube is thin. The plastic ground insert can bend or break easily. They are not particularly bright, meant to accent a walk way or flower bed rather than provide a lot of light.For the money, I have found that they have offered a lot of value. Of the 96 lights I purchased only one did not light properly. It was shipped in the "on" position and the battery was probably depleted. They look really nice around my pool and along my driveway and walk. They really make the house stand out nicely at night.I also used them in my back yard to line the patio and flower beds. The problem I have there is that two flat coat retrievers and one golden retriever like to play hide and seek in the flower beds and have broken between 6 and 12 of them already. I'll probably search for something that looks similar but is a little more durable, or I might just buy a box once a year and replace the broken ones. I've been saving the "heads" that contain the solar cell, battery, and LED from the ones broken by the dogs so if others go out I can fix them with those. If they are stored away from the light, make sure to put them in the off position.Many of the lights in my back yard are positioned in places that get shade most of the day, so they are being charged on ambient sunlight rather than direct sun. They still light up at least past midnight.I'm in the Northeast (NYC area) so I expect to get some winter weather. I'll have to see how they survive that. But my sense is that they should do ok. I'm sure a few will break from snow blower accidents or the like. They are cheap enough that I won't feel cheated if I have to replace a handful each year.My biggest complaint is that they triggered my OCD and I had to buy measuring wheel so I can make sure they are evenly spaced.

These solar lights are nice. They seem to be sturdy and when tabs are pulled, light right up. They charge fast in the sun, go on right at dusk and stay lit all night long, right up to dawn. They are, however, small and their light circumference is quite limited. They would do best when placed closer together. They were easy to put together and easy to install.

Some are nice and bright, but most are a bit dull, although they do stay lit through most of the night. Would not buy again. I'll give them one more night to light fully, but I may have to return.

These are replacing similarly designed lights and look just the same but newer. The main difference is these have an on/off button instead of a tab you pull out. Since I did not put out all of the lights, I’m hoping the leftovers will still be useable later. Though not overly bright, they are just w what I wanted to highlight the planted beds along my driveway. They may not be bright enough to light a path. They are good value for the money but not overly sturdy. The base that goes in the ground is plastic and is you accidentally drag your house across the light like I did, the metal tube will tip and snap off part of the top of the base so it won’t hold the tube straight up. Luckily I have bases from my old set to fill in when this happens. You can replace the battery when the light dies by removing two small screws (at least I did this in my old lights). But the process is a little delicate as the wires can easily detach, rendering the light unusable. Unless you can solder, but the connection is delicate and would be difficult and not worth the trouble for the price of replacements. I dislike getting things that eventually end up in the land fill, but I’m not at the stage of getting wired lighting yet, which I assume is sturdier and more expensive. One more thing, the lights need decent sun access to the tops, something that wanted in certain locations in the winter at my house in S.Cal. For the price, I’m willing to accept this.

This is mood lighting not path lighting! The plastic stakes are a bit flimsy, so soak your dirt first if you have hard dirt, a few of mine didn't sink in with a dead blowallet, they just bent. Overall, for under 2 dollars a light, these are stellar, just don't expect top dollar quality.

Great price and great lighting and easy to put in.

I wanted to use these lights to illuminate the side of the house when we take the dogs out at night. They are the proverbial dim bulb and kind of useless for that purpose. They went together and were easily installed. Maybe if I wanted them for purely decorative purposes, they may have worked…..maybe.
