Was putting in a gate at the end of our driveway, and wanted to have low voltage lighting illuminate the area so it's not so dark at night. I put a pair of these about 9 inches or so off the ground in a pillar wall on either side of the gate. The light is warm, like incandescent bulbs, but these only use 4 watts each and put out lots of light, similar to a 40 watt conventional bulb. This means when hooked up to a transformer that turns on at dusk, they can stay on most the night without using much energy. Greatly improves safety and security.
The fixtures themselves are solid, thick metal (either cast aluminum or brass)very strong, easily installs into rough masonry without worries of damage. The covers are a frosted glass that don't produce glare. They have a weatherstripped seal around the glass. They comes with lots of hardware for various mounting. I put these recessed inside a cinder block wall, screwed the backs into the cavity, and cemented/stucco'd around them. They look really good.
These are nothing like the cheap solar lights you find in hardware stores or the cheap low voltage lights; this is a first-class quality light. They are expensive and should sell for much less in the future, but I needed to get the work done now and decided to invest in LED to avoid paying the electric company in the long term.
