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

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.

The light is kind of too low, not bright enough

I also bought a bunch more of the same ( I thought ) kind of solar lights. From the local store. For $1.00 each. About 10 of them. The ones for one dollar stay lit until morning. These go out after 5 hours. I even took each kind apart. The difference was that Gigalumi lights have an off switch. And the color is different. I didn’t know I’d be able to go to the store where I bought the others, or I’m not sure I would have purchased these.

I’m giving it 3 stars because: 1) First of all, they do work but not as bright as advertised. 2) I ordered Cold White and received Warm White. 3) The range of illumination is probably decent if they’re placed, at MAX, 3-5 feet apart from each other. 4) They were super easy to install and turn on. 5) You can remove the silver collar on the top to just have a black top with a silver rod. 6) I personally don’t believe it was worth the money I spent but it was on sale at the time.

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.

Had to get a replacement because the first time the box they sent looked used and then 4 wouldn’t turn on, this new one seemed good until i started checking the cameras late at night and noticed some would turn off when its literally dark, they all turn on at 6pm then around 10pm and on some stay on others are off, not worth the money as you can see in the picture most of them aren’t even on

They are very important looking . The silver , weight, light but good, great long pointed attachment for the garden dirt . Easy to assemble. If I can do it ALL CAN DO IT !

Very happy with the quality of these outdoor solar path lights! Like the on- off switch feature! Every one lit up after being charged by the sun! The level of light & the warm color looks great in the glass light shades I painted to hold them. I will add a photo in the future. I‘ll definitely order from this company again when I need more!
