LEDwholesalers Solar Powered 15 LED Security Light and Motion Detector 2013

I waited several months before writing this evaluation so that I had enough usage to properly evaluate it. I put the solar panel on the roof of my one-car garage with the light attached to the side of the garage. I have it lighting up the side of the garage between my garage and a neighbor's garage, which is a distance of several feet. I use it so that when I go outside at night to empty the days food scraps into the compost bin back there I can see what I am doing.At first, the light would come on sporadically. I got this late in the year and snow came quickly and the light was not coming on frequently. Later, when the snow thawed, I got up on the ladder and moved the solar panel to a spot higher on the garage roof and angled it a bit differently. I don't know if it is the lack of snow or the change in placement on my garage roof (where it may now be out of the way of some tree branches) but the light works consistently now.Yes, this is mostly plastic but both the light and the solar panel swivel, which means you have endless combinations for angles to try. The cord is really long. My solar panel is several feet up on the roof of the garage and I ran the cord down over the eaves and plugged it into the light, which is on the side of the garage. The light output is pretty decent since I put the light high up and angled it downward. It's enough to at least illuminate the space between my garage and my neighbor's, and given the low price of this system, I think it's a good deal. My only complaint was that there is a light switch on this that is a push-button and it's not obvious whether or not you want it in or out for the light to turn on. TIP: pre-charge the light in the house and try it out there before taking the time to mount it.

I have purchased three of these lights at different times They are not super bright and don't shine terribly far, but they are brighter than many of the competitor lights and light a reasonable area for a reasonable price. One lights a porch area from a tree about 15 feet away, one lights a driveway from about 10 feet away. The main light area for each is about 10-15 feet in diameter. The third lights a dog run from about 15 feet above. I purchased additional ones since the first one had held up so well and was cost effective. My oldest light is over two years old and still lights fine with little or no maintanence. They are all exposed to wind, rain and snow, and still work well with sunlight on the charger only a portion of the day, lighting through the night into morning when triggered. I have found these to be good small lights for the price and would purchase additional ones if needed.

I bought this for the side yard so that I can see when I take out the recyclables and trash after dark. It was simple to install and works well, It's not as bright and doesn't have the range that some of the more expensive $90 led motion lights I've purchased, but it lights up the side yard area well. If you are trying to light up a larger area (such as a back yard) I'd look for the more expensive ones with the two lights you can mount on the corner. I'm happy with the purchase for the price I paid. This would also work well as a patio or porch light so you can see to unlock the door.

I am very happy with this product. Considering the price of similar items, this is a good value. We placed the light in our driveway, which is along the house. It is so sensitive that when we first hit the edge of our property with the car, the light comes on. It remains on long enough for us to reach the back door and unlock it. While it is not an extremely bright light, it illuminates enough that I feel comfortable walking in and out of the door, knowing that if someone were outside the light would alert me. It is not large nor does it extend beyond a medium sized area, but it works for what I needed it to do.

Electronically, this product really shines! (Pun intended) Even mounted fifteen feet from the ground, the motion detector works without fail, and the LED lights are just bright enough to light the walking area without being obnoxiously 'in your face' bright. Being solar powered is a real boon. Installation was a snap as there was no wiring to be dealt with. My only complaint is the cheap plastic mounting bracket, that cracked with the first screw. If I never take it down, and why would I, it should not be a problem, but a metal bracket to mount the light would make more sense.

I bought this product in 2009 and installed it in my house in India carrrying it all the way back from the US. Intially had a nice place tucked inside our back walkway with the panel well lit up. The initial response for two years the light was not very bright , But this summer My dad cleaned the panel , changed the tilt and now astonishingly in 2012 its a superglow in the backyard beating everything, Yes shines all the way to upto 10 feet and very bright, My old mom and dad love it !!I will wish everyone buys this.Prakash

This device emits an amazing amount of light for its size. I couldn't find anything near this quality for the price. It is perfect for the area near the rear of my house where I had that one dark spot. The sensor is not adjustable but it is set just right. The light does not stay on very long after the motion stops which is good since it is battery operated because this saves the battery power. My only complaint is that there were no operating instructions. The thing was easy enough to figure out, though.

when I bought this I expected it to be bright keep out trust passers the light is little cheaply made its not bright at all if you want something bright this is not what you need I would not recommend this product to anybody it was a mistake to be even buying it I needed something big that's going to light up my backyard and not a little section and if we have a cloudy day it does not work
