PowerBee ® Signaller Twin Head Solar Security Light 56 Superbright Led's mains equivalent security lighting for your home or business

Bought to light up a dark passage way. Works very well. LEDs may not have as many lumens as a 300w security floodlight, but they produce more than enough light to see by with the added bonus of being very economical - solar powered. Light is bright white cool tone. Twin light heads can be rotated and directed to where you want the light as well as the sensor (PIR sensitive to body movement and also a photocell for the light levels). Can alter the duration the security light stays on, darkness level before it activates and sensitivity (distance to detected movement) of the sensor. Solar panel on a 5m lead allows the light be placed in or near a dark area and the panel in a well lit one so it gets charged up properly. There is no way to shorten this lead without affecting the integrity of the unit, so if you are placing the solar panel near the security light a cable tidy or two might be useful. You might also want to consider cable clips for keeping the cable tidy anyway, depending on how you install it. Installation easy. So long as you can drill holes where you want it and the separate solar panal placed. Note you'll need two different sized drills as the screws and rawlplugs for the sesor (x4) and secutiry light (x2) are different sizes to each other. Importantly remember to switch on the solar panal (there's a seperate switch under it) as it has the battery unit in it or the whole thing won't work :-).

I was looking to replace an old 500w mains unit which was falling apart after 15 years in the Welsh rain. I decided to look for an LED replacement to do my bit for the planet. The price was reasonable and looked sturdy so I took the plunge. The unit came with enough battery charge to enable me to have a play with the controls indoors at twilight to adjust the timing and ambient light settings. The fitting of the solar panel was easy and my only gripe was that in order to mount the light's fixing bracket, you have to undo the two side nuts and remove the light. Putting the nuts screws back together, at hight, in the cold, and with one pair of hands was a bit tricky as the nut is on the inside and a bit fiddly to hold in place while trying to engage the screw. Eventually, I managed to find a bit of blue tack to hold the nuts in place and got the unit mounted. The PIR was the last thing to adjust and there was no problem adjusting for the required area of pick-up. The beam is surprisingly powerful, easily covering the required area of apx 30 square yards. The light has been working fine for three months and I would recommend it to anyone who has a spare blob of blue tack.

Long version I bought this product to add security to my off road parking. I live near a secondary school and my car has had mischief done to it a few times, nothing serious just kids being silly. So i bought this light needing solar power as I have no way of getting power to the parking spot. In the first week this light already detered a young lad from setting off the alarm, the look on his face was priceless when the light lit him up (i got a security camera as well). The light comes with some tuning options which work well but require some trial and error. The sensitvity and range of the detector is great, it works 20 meters for me. Just a little niggle, the swivel on the solar panel is not perfect you can only make it go 45deg from the axis, if you dont have a south facing vertical wall you will have to mount the bracket horizontally (on top of a wall/roof), you cannot for instance face the panel south while mounted on a east facing wall. Short Version Good light, works perfectly, bright enough, and charges perfectly even on dull days (south facing mounted). Delivery was fine as well.

This is a nice piece of kit and the lights are nice and bright. Not to difficult to fit up. Downside is that on an overcast day the battery doesn't have much in it to give out when dark.

I gave this product 5 stars because it exceeded all my expectations. What a fantastic piece of kit, easy to install, brilliant light output, does everything that it promised, and even though we are now into the winter dull weather it recharges with no problem. This is my third PowerBee purchase and would recommend it to anyone that needs a reliable, bright security light that doesn’t require long, expensive power cable runs. The unit is well made and should last for a very long time plus you can get replacement rechargeable batteries. The best bit though is that it is FREE to run. I have mine installed at the end of my 150ft garden to illuminate the back fence and my three sheds. It is also useful for keeping an eye on our precious puppy that has a mind to explore everything, everywhere. The light was delivered the next day, fitted and setup within half an hour including a tea break. I will be purchasing more soon to illuminate inside my sheds. I would like to thank PowerBee for a brilliant piece of kit and excellent customer service.

Its a good solar sensor light, however, this product was originally £35 and over time it has gone up by £15 to 50 quid. It's simply too expensive for what it is. There are alternatives out there at a much more reasonable price.

These are quite powerful enough to light the whole of my backyard (about the size of three large estate cars). They are not as powerful as mains floodlights, but easily bright enough to light your way. They are set to stay on for just a short time, so the solar panel gains more than sufficient charge even in the middle of winter. The lights were generally easy to fit, though I would have liked more flexibility in setting the direction the sensors point in. I also found a couple of the smaller screws to be of poor quality, as the recess in the screw head was poorly formed so it was impossible to get a good purchase on it with any screwdriver I tried. Once that was sorted, fitting was straightforward though, and overall performance is good.

well after reading reviews i decided to go for the powerbee sentinel with 45 LED's.All was fine working great in the good weather. Then came the thunderstorm.let the dog out sensor set the light off great 3 mins later darkness.Took it down and checked it all out.now only 42 LED's and sensor packed up solar panel works fine lights hardwired to battery pack so deffo sensor.So great little buy if you use it in the dry!!!
