have you tried putting a plant under it? Wondering if i can use a few of these in my back garden garden to give a little extra light in early season where we have cloudy days alot.
Bought two of these for my church more than a year ago. One is still good. The other fell down during a storm...the solar panel was shattered. One is attached to an old flag pole about 12-15' up and the one that fell was attached to a metal building. So much easier than running electrical and they did/do a fantastic job of illuminating the parking lot.
For those that are worried about neighbors you can set most of these to motion detection then lights. I live in the country and set mine to motion detection. That way it stays charged even through cloudy rainy weather. I got mine to light up my yard so even if the power goes out i have a lit yard to get to my storm cellar. Amazingly the solar panels have survived the hail storms even.
Hello Sir, I bought this exact same light and I’m trying to mount mine to wood also. How do I get those bolts in the wood? Do I pre drill? I didn’t see you pre drill. I’m a mom and I have no clue what I’m doing. I’ve never done anything like this before. What is the part on your drill that is screwing the bolt in? Any help you can give me would really help. Thank you so much for this video.
I didnt mention it in the video but I used lag bolts to attach the light to the post. You can take the smaller bracket with you to the hardware store to get lag bolts that will fit the holes on the lights. Basically a lag bolt is a big screw. I also predrilled the holes where the lag bolts would go and I used 1 washer between the bolt head and the wooden post.
THANK YOU so much for the reply! I’m going going to Ace tonight when I get off so I can get the bolts. And I’ll be sure to pre drill and use washers. Thank you!
It took less than 24hours actually and he walked over and thanked me for putting it up. He said he wish I would have rotated it towards his house 45* to give more light to his property. Been up ever since.
Hey buddy I just bought an EZGO TXT and have a question. I know that isn’t what this is about but where’s the best place to communicate with you on that? Been watching all your stuff for weeks soaking it up. Thanks in advance.
2 questions: 1- After one year, is it still working (Something you don't expect from Chinese products) and what are your opinions of it in the long run (Are batteries holding as new and charging ever goes zero or not holding right?) 2- Are you legally allowed to use a neighbor's fence for your own use? And did you get their permission (Courtesy) to put the light next to their windows? Thanks
Dude there's no way in hell that has a 15 to 20 KWH battery LOL.. That would be more battery than a Chevy Volt. Thanks for sharing. Looks cool. God Bless
@@RBallarddesigns Sorry you have no clue what your saying. KWH stands for 1000 watts for 1 hr of run time. Saying that that battery in this light has 15 or 20 KWH is not close. I would bet it has about 5 Amp Hrs. That is it can do 5 amps for 1 hr.. That is a max bet. This has not a thing to do with voltage..
@@RBallarddesigns It makes more since that it would be 15 or 20 milliamp hours. Not trying to sound like a ass here. Was just pointing it out was all..
@@yankey4 oh My bad. I thought it said “.15-.20”. Haha. Went back and looked and there is no period there haha. Yeah that would be a 3000-4000ah battery at 5v. Good catch Bobby.
@@Fentertainment ok awesome! Have you still been pleased with the light? I’m looking at three or four for our church back parking lot…that’s why I’m so curious…
@@jnthomae I have been. I put one at my mother in laws house as well. I have another I need to put somewhere now but I dont know where to put it. I thought about removing the powered light on my shop and using this instead. I was riding not long ago and rode past a used car lot, they had probably 25 of the solar powered lights. It just makes sense when it cost what it does to buy power wire or to have someone run it.
This video is a year old but if this is something you want or need then check with your power company. We have Appalachian power I'm in VA but they serve multiple states. Tell them you want a dusk tl dawn light or pole light etc. They will come and set a full size power pole with a light. Then they will run a wire straight off their lines so it's not pulling from your meter. **They will not run the wire over a house or building but that's okay because they can run it however they need and it's the yellowish bulb but it lights up our entire property. What about when the bulb goes out? They come and replace it for free. So what happens is we get 2 electril Bill's but in the same envelope together. Let's say your main account is 00000000001 $ however much your light bill is Pole account number is 00000000009 Then our pole light is like $12 but it might be up to like $13 now. We have had it for like 12-15 years. So my point is it's easy and you don't have to do anything but pay your bill and I don't know how much electricity a 12 hr day light would use but let's say its $15 a month well that's 0.50 cents a day😂 not to mention the giant power pole, light fixture, light bulb, and maintenance. So my point is its crazy cheap. Yes I know over the last 15 years we have paid alot but it's no different if we gotta set our own pole, run our own wire, buy our own light fixtures and bulbs and replace fixtures and bulbs when needed, as well as pay for the power used. We had big dusk to dawn lights when I was younger and it's a headache. The poles break and the fixtures only last a few years especially the sensors and bulbs. I hope this helps someone in the future because for whatever reason AEP doesn't advertise this. You legit have to call and say "hey do yall install dusk to dawn lights and poles"😂
Still pluggin away just fine. The only time it doesnt work is when there is an overcast through out the day. This past week we had debby the hurricane/tropical storm and didnt get much sunshine. Yesterday was the first day we had sunshine again and it was super bright last night!
@kensimon4478 it gets a charge all day from the Sun and still won't run 4 and a 1/2 hours and then it's very low light for about an hour and then. It goes off.
I've done a couple video of these light review/installs. I did 2 on my property, 1 at my parents and one at my mother in laws. All 4 are working great still. I was very skeptical at first but the only time the light doesnt shine is when there isnt any sun during the day during a rain storm or overcast. However Other than that it only takes a bright day to charge the internal battery the following night.
No issues with the wind on this light but issues with hawks sitting on top of the light at my mother in laws property with the same set up. It’s a 4x4x12 bolted to the fence.
@Fentertainment ah ok cool. i just installed a 16ft 4x4 for my cousin I used 2 8' 4x4 post with each 4' into the ground 24" diameter and 4ft depth filled with cement. then I bolted the 16ft to the 4ft that is Bove ground from the 8ft 4x4s. 1 4x4 is on the back and the other on the side of the 16ft. I figured that would be more than enough to support the light even on stormy/windy days.
Hey I’m asking if I can add coil over on my club car ds 1996 I have a 6 inch lift is a little rough I was going to take out one of the leaf spring in the front and back and a coils on it is it possible. Thanks.
That skinny arse 4x4 with that giant light wouldn't last one hurricane down here in Florida. Nice light if you hate your neighbors. Pair that light and some giant pipe wind chimes and a barking dog or rooster and you can sit and wait for the "for sale" to be put up.
More irritating light pollution and neighbor light intrusion. This damn things need to be directed downward and have a shroud, rather that pollute the neighborhood.
Oh wow! Thx 4 d heads up! I was wondering how much! My daughters live with their mother on 5 acres of pitch dark land! Large wooded area next door! You can hear wild dogs & see deer all the time! Few weeks ago raccoons were around & up the pecan tree next to the house! Ex-wife was in a full scale panic!🤦🏽♂️😑 I discovered one main light was blowed! Plus 2 solar security lights wires were chewed too! Something is poking wholes in the ground near the vehicles! (Possible Armadillo)! Ikr what’s next! I finally got one solar working again! New batteries & reconnected panel correctly! The things we do for our kids & ex’s🤪🙏🏽👋🏻

That light definitely going up in my backyard here in FORT LAUDERDALE , FLORIDA

These are one of the best solar lights on the market. I do reviews of many other on my channel.
i want to put a store of solar products , did you know where can i contact the supplier😢
Great work, Sir. Much repsect. I especially liked your wood working solution when the bracket was too wide for the 4x4.
have you ever built one with a hinge?
I bet the neighbors love that 😂
We have a smaller one l Ike that at the deer lease… great addition!!
Been up a year, still goin strong.
Is that a good thing for your deer lease. What state do you hunt. Kentucky here
How long do they last on a full charge ?
Does it stay semi bright the whole night ? Then gets super bright when motion is detected ?

wonder how long before the people in that house will have you take it down or put up a shield,
It took less than 24hours actually and he walked over and thanked me for putting it up. He said he wish I would have rotated it towards his house 45* to give more light to his property. Been up ever since.
So how is it holding up
Great , How Much Does it Cost ?
Nice, but IP66 is not Bueno for some places that can hurricane like rain?
Thanks for sharing.
Where did you get the wood pole?

I would have used 4×6 not the 4x4 post you used, less cutting . Added weight, so also put the post in the ground with some concrete
Idk if you respond to your comments but incase you do how is this light holding up a year later?
Both mine failed. The brackets were too weak for the weight a year later.
Is the one you installed how many watts is it?
Dude there's no way in hell that has a 15 to 20 KWH battery LOL.. That would be more battery than a Chevy Volt. Thanks for sharing. Looks cool. God Bless

How many hours can running with full light I bet it can run all night long
Funny my husband bought four of those lights we love them
Hey man, great video and clever install, BUT the amazon link doesn't work anymore. Can you comment the brand/model info? It seems like a good product.
Here is the new link. Thanks for bringing that to my attention. amzn.to/3xsDrgS

@@Fentertainmenthow high did you go with the one in your backyard?
@@frantzmerceron6351 I think its a 12' 4x4
At what height from the ground did you mount the solar light?"
How many watts and how many hours of light ?
Thank you.
I bought it thanks, woth anazon prime is $198 for 2 3800 w
Just ordered a pair of 3200s.just a size under urs but should light up my driveway good enuff
Last for 4 to 6 hours? Or more?
Can you hook it up to permanent power
Do you have shipping to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia because I did not find shipping to my city?
we can ship to ur city,how can i contact u?
Nice description, I’m curious how high you went with the light then?
Looks like 16 ft
How do you protect the solar panel from the hails?
You don't you just let nature handle it's business.

Where did You buy that solar lights
Amazon
How are they doing a year later?
This one is shining bright as I type this. Still going strong!
how to do you light it up?
my apartments upgrade all lights to LED these changed the area
What's the lumen on the tight?
they make differen size lumen lights.
Do you really recommend a Security Outdoor Floodlight to illuminate a backyard…
@@showtime4956 not really, they sent it to me for a video and I didn’t know where to put it.
Which one is it 3600w , 3800w or 4200w ?
Lol either of those gotta be killer bright!😅😳😉
Hola donde las puedo conseguir y de cuanto potencia es
a year later kind of wonder if the light still works.
Still pluggin away just fine. The only time it doesnt work is when there is an overcast through out the day. This past week we had debby the hurricane/tropical storm and didnt get much sunshine. Yesterday was the first day we had sunshine again and it was super bright last night!

That's awesome
I bought one and it does not last 8 hours? It will. Last 4 a 1/2 hours at the most. Not that good of a light.
How is it going so far for you?
@kensimon4478 it gets a charge all day from the Sun and still won't run 4 and a 1/2 hours and then it's very low light for about an hour and then. It goes off.

I am sure your neighbor probably did a RUclips video right after this on how to use a bb-gun to shoot out a street light!?

Thanks.
Gracias. Thank you.
Next project a new fence. Cuz that's one isn't going to last much longer. Looks like mine😂
You must hate your neighbor. I would be PO if you light up my house. 😂
Exactly my thoughts! Neighbors would be PO'd about this monstrosity!
Depends on the direction of the light.
Your neighbors!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
nice
If you had moved it 5 4x4's to the left it would not impede on your neighbors porch.
Neighbor requested for it to shine in that area for security purposes.
