The thing I love most about these ladybugs aren't how cute they are or how nicely they glow brightly well into the night, but instead what a good idea they are and how well-engineered they are. I haven't found another product like them, one that has a single, positionable solar collector which also holds the batteries, with a nice long length of detachable, replaceable cable connecting to one ladybug, which then again connects to another with a slightly shorter cable and again to another and again to the last. I suppose I could add even more ladybugs to the chain, but I imagine that would put more strain on the batteries and reduce the night's light span. Plus to do that, I would have another set anyway, so it'd be unnecessary.

In fact I recently had some vandalism to some of my ladybugs and even though the outer shells were damaged off their bases, the base with the light continued to bright-up every night, and I could put the damaged ladybugs over them, though they weren't sealed. So I ordered another set, and that very engineering that allows you to attach and detach cables made it so that I could replace the damaged ladybugs, in the center of their chains mind you with new replacements. Easy as pie. (I have two sets. Each set out along the sidewalk, north and south respectively of my central walk-up to the house, in between the bushes and flowers. And the cable lengths allows me to place the ladybugs all along that whole distance.)

Also, the extra long length of the solar collector's cable to the first ladybug lets me "hide" it in a bush's shadow from my nearby streetlight, thereby getting all its daylight, but not being affected by the streetlight at night.

All of this could've been a very different product. Maybe just a hard-wired together set and when one was busted you'd basically have to replace the whole thing. Or perhaps, just a set of four ladybugs, each with a built-in solar collector marring their, well, "cuteness", as well as their own batteries *ugh*. But now, from my one replacement set, I can make individual replacements on my own, or have different amount of ladybugs set out than the base 4, etc.

A well-named product, "Smart Solar" to be sure.

Smart Solar/STI 3656MRM4 Ladybug Solar Light Set. 4 pack. Red I really love the look of the lights in my back yard along with my flowers and my pond that my son built for me. i will purchase two more sets for the front lawn. I recommend this product to anyone who wants to liven up their yards you will love the ladybug solar lights and they are very easy to install.

I bought these as a gift for my daughter who loves ladybugs and she loved them...put them in her flower garden along side of the patio and they worked great...really added a touch of light at night. They have held up very well and I was very pleased with the product.

Received these lights - 4 sets - as a Christmas present. Two sets were non-functional. Two new sets were sent to me to replace these - one of these was non-functional. 50% of my now 6 sets don't work. They're very cute during daylight hours but not real functional as solar lights.

i have purchased 4 sets of lady bug solar lights
for my self and friends as gifts.i also added to my
set of 4,2 more to make a set of 6 in my flower bed.
it looks fantastic!
now a wire in the solar panel came apart as to why i ordered myself another set to make a set of 6,but it
worked out for me,

Those ladybugs are cute. They are larger than I expected. Installation was easy, and they work as described.
I am so happy that solar items are getting more affordable! It's way time we all think green and save on energy.

These lady bugs are the cutest.........Put them on a small rock and they rule.. I may have to have another set. If you want a little spark in your yard, these little guys will do it.

Bought them for my front lawn. They really add something to my garden. They work just fine. Would recommend them.

These are pretty basic solar powered lights covered by a plastic ladybug shell. They work as advertised and are a nice accent piece. We have no complaints on their functionality, but price is a bit high for what you get.

These little ladybugs have added whimsy to my garden. They shine very brightly when they come on at night. I hope to purchase more soon to complete my backyard paradise :)
