Charming and Efficient Solar Lights for Your Garden and Pathway
By James Baker on 5/16/2024 11:19:24 PM
I am absolutely delighted with the Amazon Basics Solar Outdoor Lights! These little lights are perfect for illuminating my garden pathways and patio, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The installation was a breeze with the stakes, and I love that they're solar-powered—no messy wires or extra electricity costs. The anti-rust coating ensures they'll last through all types of weather, and they come with rechargeable AAA batteries. The 12-pack offers great value for the price, and the lights add a cute and charming touch to my outdoor space. Highly recommend!

Way too small

I had bought a similar item a few weeks ago for a friend's housewarming and like them so I thought I would by a set for our home. The price was greatly reduced on these lights and I thought it was part of a Black Friday deal. The only similarity to these and the lights I bought for our friend is the general shape. The photos on Amazon look identical.
When I unpacked the box I found these lights were not even half the size and height of those I had previously purchase. Even taking that difference into account I thought they still might work along our upper pathway and to bracket the bottom of the steps leading to the front door. Nothing could have been further from the truth. They are so short that don't project the light pattern more than a few inches from the light fixture. In addition to the short throw of the light beam, the light is so dim it would hardly attract a moth.
I am leaving out tonight but boxing them back up and returning them tomorrow.
Bottom line, if you are looking for something that will light your pathway and not hint that there may be light, then avoid these. You would do better to use the light on your mobile phone to guide your way. It will be much brighter than what you will get from these lights.
UPDATE 27 Nov 2023: I have dropped this load of junk down to 1 star. They have been outside for less than a week and all 6 have stopped working completely. They have been demoted to tacky lawn ornaments and be doomed to the recycling bin.
On the upside - I applied for a refund from Amazon and they immediately credited my account and sent a notification that I need not return the item. Clearly, Amazon recognizes what useless trash these lights are.
