Wow...what an awesome little light! After finding a number of similar lights on the web with "so-so" reviews I stumbled across this one. Reviews were pretty good and not too expensive so I decided to take a chance. Turns out this is a great light. It's well made, has 4 D-size batteries which are easy to replace, it looks good, very easy to mount (2 screws) and tilts and rotates. No...it doesn't turn night into day but it provides more than enough light when coming home after dark. The motion sensor is very sensitive and has a fairly wide detection angle. I have my light mounted near my front door and pointed straight at the door handle but when my foot hits my front steps the light comes on. The light does not come on in daytime like some of the other lights I saw so you don't waste the batteries during the daytime. The manufacturer claims that alkaline batteries will last up to 3 years but if they last just one year I will be more than satisfied. The light has a couple of duration settings so I'm sure the 3 year battery life is based on a limited number of the shortest light duration setting.

I live "in the middle of no-where" on the Big Island of Hawaii where you cannot see your hand in front of your face at night sometimes! I'm off-grid and wiring lights is a big deal. The bedroom is about 75 feet from the rest of the house so I installed it in the pathway pointing toward the kitchen. I used the template included in the box to locate the 2 screws, installed 3 rechargeable D batteries, set the light switches to bright and to stay on 2 minutes and waited until dark.

Holy Canoly, it lit the entire pathway plus easily 30 to 40 feet on either side of the path. I absolutely LOVE this light! I can envision using this light all over my one acre property outside as well as some areas inside. I think I'll place one above my headboard so that if I hear a noise, the entire bedroom will be lit inside; no more reaching for the flashlight! Maybe above the toilet! Since I'll definitely be ordering more, I'm seriously thinking I'll be using one as a flashlight. A SUPER flashlight for sure! omg...I love this light and for $20 you just can't beat it! Thank you Dorcy and Amazon.

I purchased two of these lights as they look identical to another name branded light on Amazon which I loved so I decided to try it as it was more affordable. The unit is almost identical in fit and function to another light on Amazon and it was a breeze to set up. The light is very white and fairly bright for a cordless variant. It's not going to be as bright as a 110 volt motion floodlight but it is perfect for those dark sides of our house where no outlet or light is present to hook up a motion sensing floodlight. The sensitivity is very good and they seem well built. I actually dropped one from about 10 feet while trying to install it and aside from a few scratches, it was fine. I did have to downgrade one star as one of the two units I purchased had a broken nut to connect the base to the light...maybe from shipping? Anyhow, it was a fairly easy fix using my own small nut & bolt so I didn't have to deal with a return and delays. Overall I have recommended this light to others who need a motion light wherea cordless light is ideal.
