Bionic Spotlight Duo by Bell+Howell Solar Lights Outdoor with Motion Sensor 14 LED Lights Super Bright Waterproof Landscape Spotlights for Patio Garden Garage Outdoor Lighting As Seen On TV Set of 2

The media could not be loaded.  I bought 2 of these units, one for my trash can/storage shed area and one for the kids' play set. The motion-detection works really well up to a range of 20-30 feet. (Note: it can be triggered by bushes moving in the wind, and on a windy night the lights can be triggered all night long. This happened.) These lights only activate when it's dark, so you don't have to worry about wasting battery power during the day. The light is pretty bright, but not *extremely* bright. Total brightness is listed at 500 lumens, which is not very bright when spread out over two spotlights. For comparison, I have a bicycle light with a single LED that puts out 1000 lumens. I was expecting more brightness, but 500 lm seems to be enough light for the kids to play on the play set and for me to easily find my way around my trash cans and storage shed.These are spotlights, NOT flood lights. I would estimate the beam spread at 15-20 degrees, so very much a spotlight. This was great for me, as I wanted to keep the light from spilling into my neighbor’s yard.The unit installs very easily with three screws. You can easily adjust the aim of each light, but the range is limited. My installation required that I illuminate my trash cans from an angle, and the only way to accomplish that was to mount the unit on a triangular base (see video).My main complaint with this product is that the construction is very flimsy. The entire unit (2 lights, the body and the solar panel) is connected to the base by a single, thin stalk. When it's windy, the unit moves around and vibrates quite a bit, and I am sure that it will break free from the stalk eventually. (see video) When that happens, I will update this review.I am disappointed that a company like Bell and Howell, which built its reputation on quality photographic equipment, would produce such a cheap product. I have a Bell and Howell 8 mm film projector from about 1960 that still works perfectly. It would behoove Bell and Howell to make products of a quality that is commensurate with their excellent reputation.For now, I am delighted that these lights turn on every time we need them. We shall see how long they hold up!

This is the second time that I have purchased a similar product. The first purchase did not fare well, however I wanted to try again so I purchased the twin set. It also worked great for a limited time. It said it was weather proof, no it is not. After several weeks and it got cold, they stopped working. I have one more set because it was a special 2 box set. I will use this one when it warms up because I paid for it.

Could be brighter

The brightest light ever

NOT SATISFIED WITH THE OVERALL PERFORMANCE. LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT BUT THE MOTION SENSOR NEEDS TO BE IMPROVED IF USED AT GOUND LEVEL. IT SHOULD COME ON FROM A FURTHER DISTANCE THAN WITHIN 10 FEET. IT WON'T COME ON IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER LIGHTS NEAR BY. IT NEEDS TO BE RESET EACH NIGHT, ESPECIALLY AFTER COLD OR BAD WEATHER. I STILL NEED MORE LIGHTING. I'LL LOOK AT OTHER SIMILAR LIGHTS FROM THEM AS WELL AS THEIR COMPETITORS.
