Exceeded My Expectations
I got these lights mainly to brighten up the area around our firepit and to avoid using extra flood lights that kill the vibe. Living in a rural spot means it gets really dark, and these lights give just the right amount of illumination. I took a photo to match what it looks like in person, but cameras tend to brighten things up. This review is specifically about the 108 ft. String; the shorter ones won’t light up as much. I also want to mention that customer service from Hawkins Woodshop was great. I had a question about how the remote worked, and they got back to me quickly with a clear answer. The setup was fast, too, with everything working right away, except for a couple of bulbs that just needed a bit of tightening. I've seen some reviews where people didn't understand that these lights won't turn on during the day unless you cover the solar panel with something like cardboard. If the panel is in the 'off' mode, you won’t even get a flash. To test them in daylight, just block the panel, and they should turn on, or you might need to hit the button on the back. So, be sure to check that before assuming anything! I’d suggest Hawkins Woodshop clarify those instructions a bit more. I'd buy these lights again!

Great lights and service!
I got these lights back in August and I’m really happy with them. They give off the amount of light, came with everything I needed to set them up, and they look great! In October, one of the sockets started acting up (which can happen), but I reached out using the warranty info they gave me. I sent some pics and details over, and they sent me a replacement set right away—no fuss at all! It’s to see a company that takes care of their customers like this!

Super bright outdoor lights
These lights are incredibly bright! We weren't sure if we needed to charge them via USB, so we did for a couple of hours before putting them up to catch some sunlight. They worked great that same night. Just a heads up, we didn't get a remote control and I couldn't tell if one was included from the product details. Installation was a breeze, we just used cable ties. The video from my window shows just how bright they really are.

Nice addition for our gazebo
These lights were just what we needed for our gazebo. Easy to put up, and the lighting is just right. We keep ours on all the time, and they come on at dusk without any issues. The solar battery has been working great so far. I'd definitely buy these again!

Great quality and bright lights!
I've purchased four of these sets so far, but I've noticed the price has gone up recently. I'll be keeping an eye out for future deals. The shatterproof plastic bulbs are a big plus—no worries about broken glass!
