Mancra Solar Pathway Lights 8 Pack LED Solar Lights Outdoor Waterproof Glass Metal Garden Lighting for Yard Path

We live in a wooded, hilly area, so that in the best of solar times, e.g., mid-summer, in many areas of our yard, the sun may grace it for 8-10 hours a day at best. We've made two previous attempts with solar landscape lighting in the past and both efforts were disappointing due, in part, to our particular landscape situation and, perhaps also to the quality of the products we purchased and/or the state of solar technology at the time. Because these particular lights were so well reviewed, it had been awhile since we explored solar lighting and the price for 8 lights was less than $40, we decided to take another solar plunge. I must say, we have been very pleasantly surprised and pleased! They are subjectively handsome, appear to be well made (using some glass and metal components is a decided plus). They are a no brainer to assemble, installation is simplicity itself and they appear to be quite sturdy. Most importantly, so far, these lights have performed in a stellar manner. I installed them at the middle of August and all 8 lights remained illuminated (with a most pleasant luminescence) for the entire night. As summer has turned into autumn and there is even less sunlight, I have, not surprisingly, found, that the lights no longer function for the entire night. They now seem to dim and extinguish around 4-5am. Two of the lights that are in complete daytime shade now operate less brightly and for shorter durations. Regardless, this is so much better than I anticipated! In fact, I was so pleased with these lights that I purchased another set of 8 in early September. They are functioning equally well. At the Autumnal Equinox, all is good! Now, when the Winter Solstice rears its head, who knows? I'm wagering that I'll remain very satisfied with my purchase. Fiat Lux! Read more

Love these solar lights so much I've just ordered a second batch! Classic look, real clear glass, and good amount of light provided from each. All eight arrived intact and instructions were clear on how to attach tops and switch on. Came charged, and seem to be able to function on cloudy days and partial sunlight areas. Going strong at 2 months of fall/winter weather (purchased around Thanksgiving)! Read more

Bought these a couple of years ago and they are still working great. They are very nice looking and throw a good amount of light. Would highly recommend. Read more

Waterproof is a bit of an overstatement. And condensation is a thing. Also, spiders seem to love the insides - I'm guessing it's that easily accessible warmth, since there's a lot of cheap gaps. I had to hose them down and spray peppermint to kill off all the spiders and eggs they attracted. It is also extremely difficult to lift and relocate these, if in hard dirt, because the stake gets stuck. Hah, yeah, I know.... Otherwise, easy to set up, great charging and battery life, and really good height/length - as described. They are a good color and brightness, and have a sophisticated look, so it really upgrades the front of our house and walkway. Unfortunately, not long distance visibility. Maybe only a foot and a half to two feet each direction. Read more

We just poured a new concrete patio. We were looking for lights to complement the space and the darker color. These lights worked really well for this. Our patio because of the grade of the soil of our home had to raise up by about 7 inches. These lights sit high enough for that exact scenario. These are outdoor rated which was a must. They have nice led edison style bulbs in them with a nice matte black finish. While installing them in the ground I’d recommend pre drilling holes in the ground where you’re going to set them. Them build quality is ok but it’s better not to just force them into the dirt due to the aluminum build. We found that the battery life was suitable for about 5 to 6 hours. Once they were all set up they were very easy to use. Everything is just automatic from there. Overall I am very happy with this product and would highly recommend this to others. Read more

Very good product for the price. Nice to have 8 to work with on our pathway. Easy to put together and install. These solar lights are bright and seem to stay charged well. Much nicer than others I've had over the years. I like the glass shade/cover, the bulb inside looks great and liked the metal vs plastic stand. Very happy with the purchase. No issues so far and would recommend. Read more

This is a tough one. They are easy to install, look good, and work well UNTIL they don’t work anymore. They stopped working after about 9-10 months. While inexpensive, if you need to replace them every year, they aren’t so inexpensive. Read more

Love these. We have morning sun afternoon shade. Always lit and bright enough. Read more
