A little while ago I spotted these markers on here for $7.97 a pair. Thought for that price, I might just as well try them... Well turns out, they weren't even worth that much.

I ordered two pairs and out of the four markers, one was completely dead, one would just very faintly stay on and not blink, and the other two (which I assume were working correctly) would blink so slowly than if you were to rely on them to see where your driveway ends, you would have to stop and wait for them to light back on. And should I even mention that you have to take them off the PVC pipe that acts as a pole to turn them on, the switch being in the hollow base ?

I don't know if Amazon sold them at such a low price at that time because they were getting rid of a batch of sub-par units, but I wouldn't even begin to think of chancing it for the price they are selling for now. And not only are they cheaply made, but they look even cheaper. Spend a little more money and buy serious markers...

These marker lights do in fact BLINK. They blink slowly. They are ideal for far away marking. Not an up close backing/parking marker.
The lights themselves are way behind the time in solar Technology. Battery and LED need an upgrade. Battery replacement is difficult and it appears I damaged a wire when checking the battery.
The PVC pole that extends the light to it's designed height is VERY sturdy.
Mounting spike is not designed for flexibility when light is "up".
This item should be priced in the $5 per range.

This product works as it should! I'm very happy when I back out of my driveway with a mini-van because now I can see where the ditch is.

Remember the lights flash on and off to extend usage of power. You do not have the option to stop the lights from flashing. It's either off or flashing!
