Thinking about purchasing some outdoor solar powered lights. Use would be to light walkways and along driveway. What lights do you recommend and which ones are garbage?

Stay away from the ones sold @ Harbor Freight, etc. I wasted $40 on two motion detector lights that lasted all of 3 weeks and then was told that they "weren't rated for outdoor use". Where the hell else would I need SOLAR powered, motion activated, security lights.

 

 

This is my signature. There are many like it but this one is mine.

i bought a real crappy set from Home Depot when we first moved into our house..  was like $25 or $30 for 6..  they lasted one season

I've had good luck with the ones form costco. they are usually around $40-50 for a set .

I buy the crappy ones at Walmart; two failed after two full seasons, the other half dozen are still working great after three (and the same styles have been available every year so replacements are available)

 

At 3-4 bucks apiece, I figure they are working out pretty well.
