The BAXIA TECHNOLOGY Solar Outdoor Lights are one of many options for solar lights.
What we found with these lights is several cool features... and one thing that could be better.
Cool stuff:
These are super bright and motion activated. While there are no settings to these - they pretty much come on bright for about 30 seconds when motion with 10- 16 feet is detected - we find they work really well around plants, doorways, and walk areas. So simple compared with others we have bought.
There is a small pin hole for the on/off feature and I like the security of knowing it's difficult for any one to sneak around and turn these off. Added some photos of the included pin and how to turn on the lights (a simple press for on and press again for off).
We live in a very sunny area and these did not delaminate or melt when exposed to high heat and very bright sun . They also remained waterproof in a downpour. I like that the rechargeable batteries can be changed when needed (for us, these types of batteries usually last two years when well protected from the elements).
These can be used as a very strong, "blinding" spotlight when they are directed at eye level or they can illuminate about 5 feet around a plant if placed at a 20 degree angle downwards. The options for these lights makes this a super versatile light compared with others we have tried. Hopefully the photos help to show the different ways we are using the light - one is at the base of a plant to deter mice and the other is on a fence to spotlight animals wanting to climb into our yard.
Since these BAXIA TECHNOLOGY Solar Outdoor Lights are energized by the sun, two are being placed near our entrance to eliminate the need for keeping our electric front porch light on (it attracts so many bugs!). We estimate a pay back on these lights via a reduced electric bill within 2 months.
Love that these are at a price point where we can order many of these to place around our property - and we move them around to keep animals from being able to get accustomed to the lights (and therefore less fearful). The ability to move these lights around makes them more valuable to us.
These BAXIA TECHNOLOGY Solar Outdoor Lights come with a 180 day warranty. We ordered 8 and will be ordering 8 more because they work so well and are so simple to use. At the time we bought these they were 5 bucks each. The other great thing is there is a 30 day free return in the event you order them and they do not work out well for you.
What could be better?
I prefer the types of lights where you can simply attach it to a screw by sliding it on the screw. These lights have lots of options with two eyeholes (screws and plastic anchors are included, 3M type tape is not). There are good pictures on the product page of options for attaching these lights to fences, walls, etc.
The only thing that could be better would be an option for length of light on, and brightness - that would increase the cost, so we're happy with the very basic features already offered.
Hope the photos and this review help you decide if this is the best light for you. We love them and will be ordering more.
