Solar Powered Floodlight White
April 5, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
Adding safety measures to your home doesn’t have to involve expensive installations and a hefty increase in your electric bill. Keep your home safe using the sun’s free solar energy by setting up the Solar-Powered Floodlight. This motion-sensing light is triggered when you enter its 23-foot range, so it can light your way without staying on all night. The Solar-Powered Floodlight is powered by the pre-installed rechargeable battery, so you won’t need to replace batteries constantly, and it will even work during power outages. There’s no electricity needed to power the Solar-Powered Floodlight. With no wires to run, you can install this solar light in minutes. A 14-foot cable between the solar panel and the light lets you place the security light where you need it while allowing the solar panel to be installed facing the sun. This solar light will even work in cloudy weather, up to two weeks without any sunlight! A built-in photocell lets the Solar-Powered Floodlight know when it’s dark, so it won’t waste battery and bulb life by burning during daylight hours. You can adjust the light sensitivity if you desire. Additional features include adjustable motion sensitivity and adjustable length of light time.

1 Star Solar Light
The solar light failed to light after 2 weeks of use. I have left a message for the vendor regarding the defect but have not received a response.
5 Stars Perfect for us
I purchased the Solar Powered Floodlight by Smarthome at the end of June and we love it. I bought a different one at a local, big blue hardware store, and it doesn’t work as well as this one. We needed light in our backyard for safety and our dogs as we live on a nice piece of land with a path behind us. It is hard to see the dogs at nighttime when they go out to do their business. The other floodlight that we bought about 1 month before this one, doesn’t pick up our dogs when they are in the yard. The only one also only stays on for a few seconds. The Smarthome picks up on our dogs when they are in the yard and it picks up people who walk behind our fence at night and with the time adjustment, it works so much better. I would recommend this product to anyone and, I actually have. My husband and I may purchase a few more to light up the rest of our property for safety and the dogs.
5 Stars Problem solver
This gadget is a real help. When I took the dog out after dark I was negotiating a flight of stairs with one hand on the leash and the other on a flashlight. Since I’m in my 70s this was not wise. Now the photo-sensor picks up our motion, completely lights the steps, and I can hold onto the railing with the free hand. The solar cell charged up in 3 days as promised even though we had cloudy weather. I am waiting to see if I’ll have enough solar power for the extra light needed when the days get shorter and the nights get longer.

This solar powered garden light provides a soft lighting accent and a whimsical spot of shifting color in the garden, patio, lawn or pool side. Suitable for outdoor use, the light turns on automatically in the dark and turns itself off during daylight hours. When fully charged in bright sunlight, it will shine most of the night. The dragonfly ornament that sits atop the garden stake measures 3-3/4″ X 3-1/4″ and includes a color-changing LED light bulb that makes the clear plastic dragonfly change from a soft red to blue to green in a continuous pattern. The solar cell absorbs the suns energy and powers the rechargable Ni-CD battery which is included. There is also an on-off switch should you want to turn the light off during certain times. The stake is 30″ high and has a heavy-duty pointed tip that easily imbeds itself in the soil. This delightful garden decoration is provided in a sturdy cardboard box with instructions for use. NOTE: For proper operation be sure to charge the solar cell in sunlight for at least 8 hours before turning the unit on and be sure to remove the plastic film covering the solar panel before charging.

1 Star No size info
I don’t have a review. I was thinking of buying one but it doesn’t say how big it is.I have a feeling it’s very tiny.
4 Stars Really nice!
These lights are very nice. They are pretty and last a good while. I have had 6 of them for several years now, and still enjoy them very much. Of course, as with any item like this, some are going to short out. Of the 6, I’ve had two die on me recently; I believe the bulbs have shorted out. So now I have 4 left, and if I could figure out a way to fix or change the bulbs, I’d love to.
To the person who “reviewed” for no reason other than to mention he/she was thinking of buying them but thought they would be tiny, they aren’t tiny at all. They are actually about 16 inches tall from base (not including spike) to top, and the lighted part is about 11-12 inches of that. The “bubble” effect is also very cool. Only problem is they don’t last as long after you own them awhile. When I first bought them, they’d still on until about 5 or 6 in the morning; now, they last until about 2. If you want a really bright solar light that doesn’t fade, try the Starburst LED color change lights - however, they only change from red to blue to green, but they are quite bright.
My only complaint is price. C’mon, it’s a solar light! Just to buy enough to line the sidewalk could cost you hundreds of dollars at this price. I haven’t bought them from this company myself, as I had bought a bunch of them for myself and for gifts when they were super cheap in the Solutions catalog, before Solutions quit carrying them.
Anyway, give this light a try if you can find it cheaper. It’s definitely eye-catching and worth having in your yard!
1 Star not as expected
This looks nothing like the picture. It does glow in diff colors but it very difficult to see the colors even though fully charged. Not worth the money at all. The floating color changing ball is much better get that one.
