LED Solar Motion Sensor Lights

[Ah Pook]

I'm looking for a couple for the drive and walk way. Not looking for retina searing intensity. 36-50 LEDs should be enough. Remote solar panel a plus. I haven't found much of a selection at the local hardware stores. Anyone have a good supplier?

Costco has a few..........
Xepa Solar LED Security Light With Detached Solar Panel Module


this one works well.........

Been thinking about something like this for the driveway, it is facing south-ish and not shaded, plus the garage would need some wiring in a PITA to reach space. My concern is with the panel durability during hailstorms.


Lowes has one for $88, with some crappy reviews and some glowing ones. HomeyD has what looks like the same thing. Checking Amazon there are some other options with generally more happy customers. IDK about a local lighting store, would expect they would just order from a catalog with a markup on what we can find online.

These are a couple I'm looking at. The Smarthome version looks a little more adjustable.

Looked at the HD light and wasn't impressed. Harbor Freight's light got terrible reviews.

I'd like to find some locally, so I can handle them.

this heartland one is the same as the Harbor freight one, and they blow, I have 3. one works when it wants to the other two work a little more frequently.

i had a regular solar motion sensor light that held up well in high wind, hail, rain and snowstorms. it did however experience failure when a tornado ran through the neighborhood 2 years ago. YMMV

Ahh, thanks for the heads up. The HF's are labeled Bunker Hill.

No tornadoes but 70mph wind is not uncommon.

if secured properly the wind should not be an issue. The wind will however set of the motion sensor, sometimes.
