100 Feet Solar String Lights Outdoor Patio Lights Solar Powered Waterproof G40 Globe Hanging Lights with 50 LED Shatterproof Bulbs for Backyard Balcony Bistro Garden Solar Patio Light String Lights

I really wish Amazon allowed half stars as I'd give these lights a 4.5. I'l start by saying that they feel sturdy, well made, lights. The electrical wire seems fairly thick and the bulbs, which have plastic coverrings, appear to also be of high quality. Getting 2 extra bulbs is a nice touch, too. Why would I then take .5 off? Well, it probably should be .25 but I'm splitting hairs at this point. I purchased these lights to use at a tailgate. I pre-charged them at home (btw, terrific feature) and they worked great. Set them up under our canopy at our fav college team's first game and nothing, they would not work. In addition to pre-charging (about 5 days before the event), we did have the solar panel correctly placed all day but when we tried again a bit later, still nothing. My wife "wiggled" the wire that conects from the solar panel/battery to the lights and they came on... so after playing around for a while with battery panel placement, they worked. Of course, I do not wish to play around every time we go to use these lights so I processed a return... and this is where the seller/company (I assume both) really shined. I received the replacement lights the verry next day. These lights worked exactly as expected. Maybe they deserve a 5 star, but I'm taking off a half star because they didn't work properly initially. Having said that, the seller redeemed themselves quickly and I'm now a happy customer. Just knowing if there's a problem, the seller is very responsive gives great comfort in recommending these lights for whatever purpose. I'll return with any updates as time goes on, these lights are not going to get used heavily, just a few times a year for night games and maybe a bit in the backyard.

After purchasing 2 different Better Homes & Gardens Outdoor Solar lights from TJMaxx I found 1 does not work, the other light bulbs are very dim and not worth the money.On Amazon, I found 100ft long solar cafe lights and the quality, brightness of the lights, the cord is strong enough to hold up in bad weather.The solar panel screen is large and so far has held the charge for the lughts to stay on until 5am.Packaged well although 2 bulbs were out. I removed them & reinserted and they’re fine. They’re made of heavy duty plastic so broken glass will not be a problem with these. I put these up without help and there are clips that could attach to wire or onto an umbrella. The BH&G bulbs were glass and a mess to clean up upon removing & replacing them.Extra bulbs were not included however I found replacement bulbs at Menards & Lowes.The 100’ lights covered 6’8” across the patio more than a few times. I would purchase again.

Updated May 2023:These worked great ... until they didn't. I took them indoors for the winter, but when I put them back out, they never turned back on. I cleaned off the solar array and left them out in plenty of sun for multiple days, but still -- nothing. Very disappointing that I could only use these for one season.Original:Put these up in our pool area, and they've worked great all summer. The solar panels (facing east) get decent light (about 75% of the day before some of my trees to the south and west block it), and the lights have stayed it until the early morning hours when I wake up (around 6ish). I'm hoping they will store well over the winter -- will update if they don't.

We bought 3 sets to put along a back yard fence to light up the yard at night for some extra security and so we can track our dogs when they go out at night. They work great, and they automatically come on each night when dusk hits. The solar charges them for solid use of about 5 hours, and we live in a sunny location, the solar panels get direct sunlight. So they don't last all night. I also have driveway LED solar lights and they do stay on all night until the sun comes up, so this solar kit doesn't seem to keep power as long as others out there. Also, the illumination is a yellow-ish, and not very bright. These are good for accent lighting but it would be difficult to read a newspaper using these as the only light source. Some of the bulbs have gone out, but it's because they haven't been twisted all the way in. Once I twist them tighter, they come on all the time now. Easy enough to install, each set went up in about 20-30 min.

We purchased these lights for our patio area back in April. They have been in the box in a cool, dry place while we completed the spring cleanup and staining. We hung them over the weekend, and they do not work. We have done the troubleshooting and the wiggling of the wires, but nothing helps. Amazon will not replace them because it has been over 30 days, and the company, SUFEIMAS, has no contact information that I can find. When I investigated the 1-year warranty, it took me to a page that does not exist. This is so disappointing. I should have stuck with the cheap Walmart lights. Sad.

I scored the lights 4 stars because they are tangled when unwrapping which makes this a difficult process.The lights are great when lit and last all night. Awesome.
