Review by W. Harris : Does the job!

I was increasing security around my house and wanted to install solar powerd motion sensor lights. I did a Google search and the Maxsa continued to come up. I like to purchase through Amazon because of their reputation. I recieved it very fast,put it out so the battery could charge,installed at location I chose, and it works perfectly. You're able to set sensitivity of motion sensor and how dark you want it to be before it will come on+ the length of time the light stays on. So far,so good!

Review by K. Ryan "Jeja" : So far so good

Install was easy, construction not flimsy, lights up my south facing back yard whenever the dog goes out at night which is exactly what I wanted. Not the brightest light, but I don't need to irritate the neighbors, and the light has a bluish tinge to it that I like.

Review by bookaddict01 : nice little light

I've been using this light for a week now and so far so good. It's obviously not as bright as a regular light but still pretty good when I compare how dark my backyard looks without it. It's bright enough to see objects and not trip over anything but dont expect to do any reading with it. The light is a lot dimmer 10-15ft out or that could just be all my trees blocking the light. The light has 3 settings.

Sens: for sensitivity
I currently have it set at the lowest setting because it seems way too sensitive if I turn it higher up. At the lowest setting, it is enough to pick up people's movement but not my dogs. So when I let the dogs out to pee at night, it only turns on when a human go out.

Lux: for level of light before it turns on
I have this set to the lowest too since I dont want it turning on during the day and so far it's only turned on at night even with the gloomy & rainy weather the last few days. (Hey it still charges. Yay!)

Timer: for how long the light stays on (pretty self-explanatory)

The light does what it's suppose to. It charges even with gloomy weather (keep in mind I dont use it that much and one charge should last several hours). Been fine with the rain although nothing heavy since it's summer. I like that it uses regular AA rechargeable batteries if you have to switch out the batteries. It is 180 degrees because it turns on the moment I walk around the corner of the house into the backyard. Remember to point the sensor towards the path. My brother had just installed it as is and it was pointing at the trees. It would turn on every night due to the movement of the leaves and branches until I adjusted the tilt and turned down the sensitivity. I would recommend this if all you need is a little bit of light when you need it and there's no power outlet there. Would not recommend if you need more light. Hope this helps.

Review by Mississippi Mimosa : These are perfect!

I purchased 4 of these and placed 2 on the front of the house and 2 near the front door. My front yard is very dark at night, now when I pull up the front lights turn on and I can see to unload my truck and as you approach the front door the other lights turn on providing plenty of light to insert keys, etc. Ease of installation is a big + (just be sure they are facing South!) Now all the neighbors want to know where I got them because they want some too!!

Review by Henry Holdt : solar powered motion detector light

For my application, this light is wonderful. I was able to set the sensitivity so the animals would not turn it on, but vehicles would. It has provided light every time it needs too.I am very satisfied with the performance of the light

Review by M. Janosi "Jmissyleigh" : Little Light, careful where you need it for

First - let me tell you what I LOVE about this light. The settings, for me at least, as easy to use and offer a wide range of choices. It has three control setting. When you want the light on, day time to night time, your choice anywhere in that time frame. How LONG you want the light to stay on once it senses motion (stays on the through all motion, the timer starts when the motion stops) from two to four minutes. I would say 45 seconds to five minutes is a little more accurate. And Sensitivity, from high to low. I want mine to pick up cars and people, so I set it to medium. So far the rabbits and skunks are still in the dark, my daughter has a lighted path from the driveway to the porch. It is easy to install, but you may want to get a little stronger 'mollys' if you live in a windy place or are installing it on sophit instead of wood. It is durable - we dropped it ten feet during installation - it still works and didn't break! The light is bright enough in pitch dark (no solar powered light will ever match an electric light in my lifetime!!) a soft glow that doesn't blind you or attract bugs. The ability to point the two lights where ever you want makes it perfect for Driveways and walkways, or two corners of your house! The solar panel is adjustable in angles, so you can find the best location for the panel without compromising where you put the light (LONG cord between the two as well).

Second - what I don't like. This unit has a 25' sensory range. Seems like a lot, more then enough. BUT if you put it up on your 15 foot garage peek, you really have a ten foot motion sensory range on the ground. The sensory does have a 180 degree range, and can be pointed/positions to the area you need to pick up motion in, but unless you are installing it on the ground, expect to have to be up closer before it lights your way.

Over all - great product...I will be getting a few more (now that I know where I need to install them to get the best light coverage from them).

Review by mccm "M" : OK

This is my 3 rd solar powered flood light I purchased, I have two other brands.
It was smaller then I thought it would be, and it seems to temperamental (I know)

If you are trying to illuminate a small to medium area, it will work fine and be bright enough. The settings can be adjusted pretty easily, installation is pretty much a no brainer.
My issue is that I can see the lights being on in the middle of the day. I see the led's on. This does not happen with any of my other solar lights. Ofcourse I am moving around in front of the light, but somehow to me it seems that this should not be. So, if they are on a lot, it is not charged for the night.
I have tried to change the settings, but to no avail yet. I will keep on trying.
In short, it is an OK light, it will work, it is bright enought but for $20 to $30 more you will get a bigger and maybe better fixture.
