Tiny. Small. Ships totally dead. There is no way to know if the power switch is on or off! During the winter months you'll have to light concentratore, like a Fresnel lense or something to get the battery charged up fully. The LED string pulls approximately 100mA. Therefore the battery must be a multiple of 100 equal to the number of hours of operation. The instructions say 6 to 7 hours IF fully charged. It runs about 5.5 hours on a full charge. Charged indoors with concentrated artificial light AFTER first figuring out ON from OFF! In total darkness leds' appearance is of a string of bright lights. If the mfg gets rid of the power button problem, then yes, I can and will recommend these lights. Also has a mode switch to make lights flash, this saves battery and extends usable light. No connector, is hardwired.
