Hyper Tough 1000 Lumen Motion Sensor Solar Street Light

We live in a rural area and have all sorts of critters roaming around at night. Wanted something to possibly scare them away or at least keep them at a distance. The light seems to work when it comes on the critters (deer) run away. Hopefully they wont get so accustomed to it that they no longer fear it. The light is bright but not so much that you can't enjoy sitting outside. We are heavily wooded so I had to find a place with enough sunlight to charge it. However it is easy to dismount so I can take it down to place in direct sunlight to recharge it when necessary, I mounted it low with that in mind, it doesn't shine constantly so it should hold charge for a while. A bonus is that it can be carried around if we have power outages or want to look for something back in the woods.

This is a great solar powered light. The brightness is shocking for a solar motion light. Used it both as an outdoor light on a patio to alert me when the cats were out by my plants, but then moved it to the outside of a feed shed because of the mounting bracket. It allowed me to use it as a flash light to search a barn that had no power. love it.

In order to insure that the battery charges up during the day, and that the unit illuminates my (North-facing) garage door, I needed to come up with a rather bizarre structure to attach the light. It’s not pretty but it works. If you have a good south-southeast-southwest facing place to install it, you should have no problem. I followed the instructions and let it charge 8 hours. That night -- there was light! It seems the motion sensor is a little less sensitive than I would have thought. I had to get pretty close before it came in but that might be due to having installed it pretty low: just about six feet. Anyway, it works fine for my needs.

I think this motion sensor, solar street light is excellent. My husband installed it in less than 30 minutes, over our front door steps. When we (or our little dogs) approach the steps, they lite up with brilliant white light. We are very happy with it and highly recommend it to others.

I installed this light to our fence pole to have some additional light by our backyard gate. I like that it is solar and motion so I don't need to wire it or replace batteries. It is pretty bright and the angle can be adjusted as well as the 2 light panels can be tilted or face straight down. I like that you can mount it to a pole instead of drilling holes also. It does come with a wall mounting option in case you plan on putting it elsewhere. It is very bright at night and lights up quite a bit of the yard. The motion detection is not too sensitive, but sensitive enough to work well when you are walking by to activate. There is also an off switch to keep it off at all times.

This lights up very bright. I plan to mount mine on 10ft PVC poles that I can move if I choose to. It is motion sensor only and does not light until activated by motion. The cats can activate it so any other critters or uninvited guest will do the same. I have gutter lights that don't interfere with it. Because they are motion activated only the batteries stay well charged. Good security light just wish I could reset the illumination time. Got some of the off brand types that have three modes . Those are feather light by comparison which I like and they too work fine just not as bright. All solar products use some type of rechargeable battery. When purchasing these types of items pay attention to what type of batteries they use so you can replace them if needed in a couple of years. As long as you do that you will get great value from this and other solar products.

Notice. This is a security light, not a street light. Meaning it only comes on for 30 second when motion is detected. I purchased one 2 years ago and it still works great but it stays on all night at a dimmer level and when motion is detected it gets way brighter. So, I assumed the 2 new ones I just purchased were the same. They are not. Got them half price so keeping. all in all, great lights.

Would be good as a motion-sensing security light. The name "Street Light" not really accurate as you would expect a dusk to fawn sensor operation so that the area or street is lighted constantly at night. So I would call it a security light which responds to someone walking up. Nice when you're walking out to the shed at night. Or could be used indoors in a garage or closet lighting up when you go in. Of course would need to be charged in the sun once in a while so in that case keeping it portable.

I received the Hyper Tough 1000 Lumen Solar Street Light. Item number Q01DU0402-08. The instructions were easy to understand. I attached this to the vertical post of my tarp and pole carport. I don’t have any electrical outlets on that side of the house so I needed a solar option. This product is perfect for my needs. I was pleased with the amount of light it projects. I’m not electrically inclined so having actual power ran was not an option. Also, financially hiring an electrician for a wired light fixture is not an option. This was the perfect affordable solution. I’m hoping this holds up to the severe weather my area is prone too as others have mentioned the plastic housing isn’t water tight. I really like how I can angle the LEDS as well as angle the overall fixture. I feel the teeth part of the fixture for angling could be bigger. The plastic teeth are so tiny I could see them slipping over time if there is enough movement from wind etc. I wish this had a sensitivity dial and a time dial that some other models have.

They hardly light up anything and are very small
