4.0 out of 5 stars Sunforce Solar Garden Lights (pack of 10)
Easy to assemble, lovely lights, so nice I got another set of 10 and placed them all around the garden. Just be aware that they give off a sort of "blue-ish" light, not white light...

2.0 out of 5 stars Dim
These lights are well made but so dim as to be useless. The el-cheapo garden lights you see on sale at various home improvements stores are noticeably brighter, though not as well made.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solar Garden Lights, February 18, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sunforce 86115 Solar Garden Lights pack of 10 (Automotive)
Short and to the point. Every unit worked as described in product description, and straight out of the box. I really like the different bluish tinted color as opposed to plain old white like I had with my old ones. Product received in timely manor and condition as described. I did give all the batteries a medium charge to be sure all were fully charged before using. I am well pleased with these lighs. 5 star rating from this customer.

I live near a lake where everyone has tried solar lights. Most look miserable and don't put out much light or the lights are inconsistent. I bought these on faith that Amazon reviews are reliable, I wasn't dissapointed. Very happy, bought two packs more.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little dim, April 25, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sunforce 86115 Solar Garden Lights pack of 10 (Automotive)
I ordered these in hopes that the lights would closely match some existing LED garden lights I have around a planter in front of the house. The existing lights are powered by 110 electrical coming from the house.

The color of the lights match great but the amount of light coming from these solar lights is low compared to my existing lights. The color is rather blue which looks kind of elegant. I don't know why they would make the globes as big as they are when the light that is generated does not fill up the globe. The light that comes from these garden lights is about equal to a candle.

Still, they look pretty good and I will be keeping them. I'm not sure if you can get more light from solar power, I think solar lights tend to be dimmer than wired electric lights.

This review is from: Sunforce 86115 Solar Garden Lights pack of 10 (Automotive)
Very disappointed as a good repeat customer.
After 1-1/2 weeks over half the lights don't work and they are in the sunlight
95% of the time.
I will be contacting customer service!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Less useful then I was hoping, June 28, 2011
This review is from: Sunforce 86115 Solar Garden Lights pack of 10 (Automotive)
The box is well packaged for product safety and space saving and the lights are easy to assemble.

In my case not all the lights were the same color frequency. Some of the lights were a traditional orange color while others where more white/blue in color. The lights charge well and stay lit for as long as we are awake. The light sensitivity is not changeable and seems to be set pretty low as they turn on when it's not even dusk yet. The light that come out of them is good as an accent light and possibly if you put them very close to each other they would give off enough light to actually on a walk way. With some street lighting and a clear sky these lights are pretty much useless at providing usable light.

They are made of plastic and do feel a little cheap. Because they are plastic they are also pretty light which makes them sway to one side after some time if you have rain or soft soil. Putting them into hard soil can be problematic as I can hear the plastic straining and I was afraid of breaking them if I pushed harder. I just had to put them in further into the ground from them not to move around.

Pros:
Easy to assemble
Inexpensive per light
Provide light without wiring (as to do all solar lights)

Cons:
Not enough light to be useful unless used in concentrated area
Very light (need to be readjusted every few weeks)
Light color inconsistent
Turn on before dusk

Conclusion:
If you are looking at accent light these are nice. If you are looking at providing enough light to make your path to the house walk-able you'll most likely need to use all 10 for a 15' distance.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solar Garden Lights by Sunforce, April 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sunforce 86115 Solar Garden Lights pack of 10 (Automotive)
The package and its contents were nice and it was easy to assemble them and instal it on my roof and on the compound wall. It looks great.

The only disparity I could see was its different tint in the lights. In fact I got two lights with bluish tinge while the rest of the lights are lemon tinge.

One light is not showing up at all. I don't know whether the bulb has fused out or the battery is not good. I hope Amazon or the shipper Sunforce will take steps to ship me the replacement.

Overall I like the solar lights and a little more brightness would have added some more splendor.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too dim, June 29, 2011

Just bought it and put some in my garden, but the light is too dim. It has only one LED, no wonder it is too dim.

It will be great in a totally dark area, but if there are some garden light and it will totally disappear.

The lights are not very bright, but they are good enough to create a nice glow. The pieces are easy to configure and you have the option of increasing or decreasing the height using an additional piece. I would recommend them.
