They work! January 16, 2010 WSSiegelaar (Tucson area, AZ) I bought these what will be 2 years ago come April and they've amazed me - and everyone who sees them - since I first got them. They stay on all night long STILL! If memory serves, I did replace the batteries with higher mA ones but I don't consider that a fault because this unmerciful So. AZ. sun eats batteries! I'm only giving them 4 stars because, ya know, they could just use a little bit better wiring especially for what they're asking for them.
Now there was a rat, I'm guessing, gnawed thru one of the wires but I can easily fix that - and while it's apart, I can run it thru conduit. I love a challenge!
Anyway, these give off a bright path light and have stayed bright for the better part of 2 years and counting. I didn't pay near what they cost now, tho!
The best, for the price. November 5, 2009 Mr. Joe Budde (Wellsboro, Pa) I ordered these, a set from Heartland America, and a set from Moonrays. The Malibus aren't real bright, but I intend to buy a couple more sets to fill in. The Mailibu's have long cords to each lamp that plug into the sensor. If a cord fails, you still have the other 2 lights. They have adapters to mount to rails, walls, or stick into the ground. The Moonrays are attached along a single, tiny cord. If the cord fails, and it quickly will, the whole system is trash. The lights are only about 3-5' apart. They can ONLY be stuck into the ground and cannot be mounted to a hard surface. They also, don't respond to customer "service". I can't honestly report on the Heartland America lights, as they were broken when I opened the box. I live in a rural area. Repacking and resending these items is more costly than what they are worth. This is the only recourse we have.
great lights October 29, 2009 Michael L. Hunzeker (Waterloo, Iowa) I have about 10 sets of these - very bright--- several have been out for three years in Iowa weather still working. Ordered two sets from amazon advertised as malibu solaire but received doitbest brand.
They look the same but failed within two months. absolutely wothless.
If they are the malibu very good, send back doitbest if they try to pass those off to you
Works great.... for 1 year. September 14, 2009 D. C Frezza (Belle Mead, NJ United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought 2 of these and they both worked great for about 1 year. Lights seam ok, must be the solar panel. It comes with a 2 year warranty so we'll see how Intermatic is with service....more to come.
Update.... after 1 week Intermatic set me 1 replacement solar panel. The whole process was done on online, and I think they missed the part where I said I bought 2....more to come.
Just what I wanted September 9, 2009 Santiago (Maynard MA) I ordered these for lighting my new Koi pond. It's a small pond, about 10 by 10 feet under a porch area about 5 feet above ground.
The kit included plenty of wire to run around and after a short one day charge the lights worked very well. I was worried they may be too bright but no they were perfect for this application.
I'd guess that they were similar to about 15 watt incandescent bulbs. They really show of the waterfall and don't draw attention to the light heads. The black color of the fixtures blends in well and with a bit of care in placing them they are hard to see. All around I think they are a good purchase for gentle lighting. I'm a happy customer.
