Buy NEBO Soleil Solar Powered Flashlight

Customer Ratings:

I bought two of these, had the same experience with both. They were great for about a month, then the batteries would no longer hold a charge. Had to buy two new rechargeable batteries which I had to order online. Same problem with the new batteries. The flashlight worked briefly, then the batteries would no longer charge. I'm not going to put out any more money on a bad product. That would just be foolish. My suggestion, choose a different flashlight. If you're going to have to replace batteries, just get a good flashlight that will work reliably. Don't rely on this to work for very long. When you need it, you may find yourself stumbling around in the dark.

I have owned this flashlight for several months. I leave it on a table near a window and it receives enough sunlight to always be charged. My hubby was always grabbing it so I finally bought him one too. It fits nicely in the hand and the lights are bright enough for any small job. We've found them so handy that I bought several more for gifts. Everyone that I've given one to has also loved it.

At first I was so happy with it and I bought several more to gave to friends and family as gift. However, soon I found out this is a huge mistake. This thing is actually a fake solar powered flash light because it is actually running on battery instead of solar power. when the power of the battery runs out, it will stop working even if you put it directly under the sun. Out of all those flashlight I bought, only one person haven't complained about it stopped working (And I think it's only because she hasn't really used it that much. Guess what, by the time you figure out this thing doesn't really work. It already to late to return it to the store. Whoever invented this product is a 1st class con artist.

Honest reviews on NEBO Soleil Solar Powered Flashlight

Recently received this flashlight as a gift, I own another Nebo battery-powered light that I'm somewhat happy with based on the pricepoint, however.... this light just does not work.

There's a small battery in the rear (like a big CMOS battery) and solar panel on the top.

When I received the light, I thought maybe the accessible battery is for when the internal/inaccessible battery is empty out of solar charge. So I left the light outside in direct sunlight for maybe 4 hours, brought it in, turned it on and nothing.

When I went back outside and kept the switch in the on position, I realize it works when in direct sunlight, but as soon as it's removed from the sunlight it turns off.

Is the battery supposed to be rechargeable? It's not recharging. Not sure what kind of scam this is, it really just makes no sense why would you put a solar panel on a light that contains a non-rechargeable battery?

Save your money for a real light, if you want to go green (if you believe in that sort of thing), buy a good light for $50 and some Eneloops.

BTW Cannot find this item on the Nebo website, probably discontinued as an epic FAIL.

This is so cool! I bought one locally and wanted another one to give as a gift, so I got it on Amazon at half the price.

It fits comfortably in your hand or pocket. I dropped mine and gashed it up, but it still works fine.

As a joke I tell people that it's a great flashlight but because it's solar powered, it can only be used during the day in sunlight.
