Customer Reviews

Will not maintain a charge.
I bought these lights and were excited to put them in to decorate my back yard. The light output isn't that great, but not too bad either. When I first took them out, they charged all day. Night came and they added a nice little accent. Now don't expect them to provide illumination to the surrounding area. These lights are more for decor.

However, my disappointment came the following weeks. Gradually I noticed that the lights would stay on shorter and shorter. Some barely stay lit more than an hour after the sun sets. I figured the batteries did not come fully charged. So, since they were standard NiCad batteries, I took them out and charged them with an outlet charger.

This fixed the problem...though temporary. Again, a few weeks later, lights wouldn't stay lit for along period of time. I believe this is due to poor charging mechanism of these lights. Sure, some of my lights do not get full sunlight all day because of surrounding trees and all. But the ones that are completely unobstructed and get full sunlight from dawn to dusk will not charge.

I bought these real cheap and I guess you get what you pay for. I think they are great accent lights only if they would maintain their charge.

Complete waste of money :-(
I read the reviews before making this purchase, but there were not as many negative reviews... These lights are extremely wimpy. I have been using solar lights for years and these are seriously sub-par. I had to remove them and replace with another set. Returning them would not be cost-effective, either.

In short, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You would THINK with a brand like Westinghouse, you could trust them to be as advertised. - HA!

OK Lights
I bought these lights to outline the sidewalk by the front door of my elderly mother's home so that when she came in at night it would be easier for her to see. These lights are not bright enough to illuminate the sidewalk. They just outline the edge of the sidewalk which I suppose is a good thing, but I was hoping for more. If you are looking something to light up the sidewalk, these are not the ones to buy.
