I recently bought one of the forward facing and one of the backward looking cranes.

I have a number of decorative solar lights, but these cranes (they look like blue herons to me) are by far the most beautiful. In fact, they're even more gorgeous in the daytime as at night. I'll be buying more to give as gifts!

In addition, they stand quite high, so be sure to review the dimensions before you buy. Mine are in an area where I have nothing BUT solar lights, but you could put them where you have substantial ground cover and they would look wonderful. Also, if your soil is very sandy, you might have a problem with them standing up because they are so tall and could be top heavy. Put them in grass or where there are other roots to bind the soil together and you should be fine.

I thought these birds were well worth the money. Even if the light stops working, they'll still be beautiful in the daytime.

The actual size of the crane itself is quite small compared to the published dimensions (due to the substantial length of the stake.)

I bought a pair of these forward and rearward facing cranes and have watched as the blue glass ball of the forward facing crane has slowly been fading. It's now turned almost completely clear in a matter of weeks! The rearward facing crane is still blue, so they no longer match.

PS: I actually prefer the clear glass ball as the colours of the LED light can now be clearly seen. I just wish both of them had faded....

Honest reviews on Moonrays 92222 Solar Powered Crane Landscape Stake Back Facing

I have only had this light for a few weeks but it is cute during the day and the light is nice in my garden at night. The light isn't bright enough to light an area, it just looks interesting as it changes through its colors. It was a splurge and more than I would spend but it appears to be made with sturdy construction so hopefully it will last a long time. Look closely at the size dimensions this is not a large figure.

This is a really beautiful crane at a great price. There is a unique crackle effect throughout the solar ball. May go back for the other one if it's back in stock. Shipped sooner than expected which was a pleasant surprise.

UPDATE--

Although the headlamp is fantastic, per my original review below, the battery cover wasn't very durable. The battery cover broke after 1 to 2 years of reading use at home; what was surprising was that I only changed the batteries 3 to 4 times prior to it breaking....the good news is that one can tape shut the battery compartment, and it still works (as I have been doing for years).

-----

This is a fantastic headlamp. Besides this headlamp, I also own the Black Diamond Zenix IQ. However, I find myself using the Gizmo 99% of the time however. The reasons I prefer the Gizmo are as follows:

the Gizmo weighs significantly less than the Zenix IQ

unlike the Zenix IQ, the Gizmo does *not* have a battery pack in the back of the strap....making the Gizmo perfect for use as a reading lamp while laying in bed.

the Gizmo is more compact (and lighter), making it easier to carry in a pocket and/or to carry with you in a backpack for "just in case I need a headlamp" situations.

Although I would still recommend the Zenix IQ as a great headlamp for long hikes (provides more output light when you really need to see distances for unknown terrain), I find that I use my Gizmo 99% of the time because in its low-output mode it is the perfect reading lamp and in its high-output mode it provides plenty of light for walking around a campsite, etc.

**Original review 2009**

I got this because I wanted a lightweight headlamp for running after dark and to take backpacking/canoeing and other places where weight counts. I have some Black Diamond climbing equipment and their headlamps all got great reviews too, so I went with this one. As soon as I opened it I decided the design is great. Very compact, just big enough to squeeze in a couple AA batteries right behind the 3 LEDs. The elastic headband is small and won't absorb much sweat, but it's quite strong with a lot of stretch and I have to loosen it up quite a bit or I'd probably get indentations in my head!

On my first run, I like the way the three LEDs lighted up a swath ahead of me, not just one bright focused beam. This well-designed headlamp constructed of very lightweight, very flexible, very strong plastic. All around great product, especially for the price!

**Followup Aug 2012**

Oftentimes you get what you pay for (though there's expensive junk as well as cheap junk!)

1) This headlamp eats batteries even when it sits unused, which is a hidden cost of any supposedly "cheap" headlamps, which aren't either cheap or reliable in the long run.

2) I'm unhappy with the switch it's hard to tell if it's activating sometimes.

3) This headlamp goes on the brightest setting first. If the batteries are running low it will switch itself off entirely before you can click through fast enough to the lower settings. It would make more sense to start with the less bright settings first, which both my Brunton headlamp and Mammut TR1 do.

4) It's way too difficult to get the back off the case to replace the batteries without a knife or other tool even in broad daylight. None of my other three headlamps has this problem. In practice I have to pry one of the hinges first to separate the headlamp from the holder that attaches it to the headband, then get the case open. Neither step is easy without a knife blade or similar tool, and sometimes it seems like I'm going to break the headlamp in the process. If you need to replace the batteries after dark and don't have another light, forget it. I had fresh batteries in my tent but after wrestling with the case in the dark for what seemed like 10-15 minutes, had to wait til the next morning to switch them out. (I now carry a tiny Princeton Tec Pulsar II for a backup in situations like this)

I occasionally go on weeklong backpacking trips and when I take only one (or two) lights I need something truly reliable. This isn't it. After one such trip I swore I'd never take this headlamp anywhere I really needed to depend on it. After three headlamps that had similar problems with iffy switches and no juice left in the batteries when you need it, I recently spent the money on a ZebraLight H51 http://www.amazon.com/H51W/dp/B005LYS7OG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1344820876 I got Sanyo enerloop batteries to go with it. The zebralight is everything my previous three headlamps were not (Brunton, Black Diamond and Mammut). Metal construction where the others use plastic, yet doesn't weigh any more. Night and day difference on the switch! Very good tactile feedback on the switch, feels like it would hold up to 10,000 clicks instead of wearing out after a few hundred times. They thought of everything. Quick click and it comes on bright. Click and release more slowly and it comes on low so you don't blind your tentmate. And all kinds of other click settings (medium, strobe, etc.) that are intuitive and not hard to learn or remember. Zebralight supposedly sets the world record for longest run time on a single AA battery. I was thankful for the glow-in-the-dark silicone holder every time I looked for it in a tent after dark. And what I've now come to appreciate, you can slightly unscrew the tailcap to eliminate the parasitic battery drain that plagues all of my past three headlamps including the Black Diamond Gizmo. Finally, a headlamp I can trust when I really depend on it, and will work immediately when I grab it. Reviews I read of the $50-$60 headlamps by brands like Black Diamond and Mammut did not inspire me with a lot of confidence either, so "you get what you pay for" is not always a good guide either. Read the zebralight reviews and compare to the others I'm convinced it's actually the cheapest headlamp if you plan to still be using it 4-5 years from now. IMO there's no comparison in the build quality even in the same price range.

So this is just an average run of the mill headlamp that does everything you need it to do while keeping it light weight and simple. I have loaned it out to young children who immediately know how to use it in under a minute and seem to enjoy the 'blinking' mode. This headlamp is nothing special, but doesn't try to be, it just gets the job done while keeping the cost low to the consumer. I couldn't be happier with mine and plan to keep using it for years to come.

Honest reviews on Black Diamond Gizmo Headlamp

This arrived a little early, one day before I left for Belize and Guatemala! I looked at sharks in the atoll lagoon at night, walked to the outhouse, cooked in a water cabin on open flame hot plate, washed dishes on the shore and avoided stepping on thousands of hermit crabs with this handy, affordable and durable little headlamp! Great lighting for a small and inexpensive LED lamp.

A good little light. I mounted it on my small electric scooter as a secondary light for its flashing mode. The Chili color even matches my scooter. I used a Dorcy 41-2090 3AAA G Shock LED Headlight as my primary headlight. Between the two people definitely see me coming. Both lights are quality build and I spent a total of $35 for both.

I built a fireplace mantle that also surronded my big screen tv. I originally used a concealed blue rope light to add some snazzy accent lighting to my project. It was ok but wasn't to bight. The individual lights in the rope also left individual glows that resulted in a spotted glow if you know what I mean. I ran across the Sylvania light kit at Costco and thought I would give it a try. I then came to amazon to buy the extensions. This is an awesome light kit. Not only is the light brighter and adjustable with a remote, but it also results in a smooth glow unlike the rope light. Even more of a bonus is the numerous color choices. Installation was easy! I cannot comment on its longevity but for now, I love it. This is a high quality item for a reasonable price. I highly recommend. Just remember that this item is an extension kit only. You still need to buy the original kit that come with the power supply and remote control. As far as the remote, it is line of sight. There is a small eye that will need to be placed in view of where you will use the remote control.

We needed to buy a bunch of small reading lights at our theater (for rehearsals, stage managers, etc) and so I ordered one of each of the top models I found here on Amazon. This one was the hands-down winner. It's great that you can clip it to any book (super strong clip) or use it on a table (the batteries act as a perfect counterweight). The smaller models didn't have nearly the same lamp life as this one. And the flexible gooseneck is awesome. I still have all the other test models kicking around but this is the one I use -great for camping trips too!!

This changes everything! After years of nighttime disputes when one of us wanted to turn off the light to go to sleep while the other wanted to keep reading, the Light Boss saves the day. I really like that you can clip it to the book or rest it on the nightstand, and that the dual light settings mean you only use as much light as the situation requires. It's lightweight, and so would be easy to pack for travelling (I'm bringing mine camping), and the LED light is strong yet not harsh.

Love it.

So i searched Amazon for the perfect lighting accessory to add to my working environment and i finally ordered this magnificent LED clip light called "Light Boss" and was not disappointed by the results. I can clip it onto almost everything and adjust its flexible gooseneck the way i want, very good when you want to free up your hands to work on something. The fact that i can change the intensity of the lighting is great too, from one LED bulb to two LED bulbs working side by side makes it really efficient.

Pretty nice lights; light weight, nice looking, and pretty bright. We needed to light a big painting on a high wall. Stuck all three in a row on the adjacent vaulted ceiling with the included self-adhesive hook & loop pads in about 10 min., and we keep the remote in a nearby drawer (it must be aimedd at the lights to work). Some pluses not mentioned on the Amezon page: a full set of Duracell batteries are included, and, you can press and hold the remote button, or buttons on the lights themselves, to dim them for softer light. ...UPDATE (after two weeks): The bad news: one of the adhesive pads let go at 3 a.m. and the sound of the light bouncing off our coffee table scared us half to death! The good news: light still works fine after a 15 foot fall onto a slate coffee table! I'll add a screw or two (provided) to each base. The lights still snap off their base easily for changing batteries.

These lights are stylishly gorgeous. The polished metal makes the lights look very expensive. The lamps have a swivel base so that you can point them where you want. Each light takes 3 AA batteries and the remote takes 3 AAA batteries. The remote works with all three lamps. However, if you aim the receiving window of a lamp away from the receiving window of the other lamps, you can "disable" that light working with the remote. Each light truly has high output. I have two on the ceiling above my office desk and at night they adequately light my work area. I would not read a book by their light, but I can easily see my desk and any working notes that I have scribbled. Each light comes with an adhesive pad, a mounting template (very nice touch!) and two mounting screws. The adhesive pad is very strong, I used it to determine if I liked the lights. The template makes drilling holes for the mounting screws very easy to do. Overall, this is one of my better purchases and I highly recommend these spotlights.

Honest reviews on Lumen 3 Pk LED High Output Spotlights w/ Remote Control

I just purchased these lights and like them so far. I'm not wild about them, but they're decent enough. I'm actually using them outdoors underneath my deck to light up some steps, so I'll post and let everyone know when they die.

Pros:

Bright

Comes with all batteries (and it's a lot of batteries)

Price

Cons:

IR technology with a small sensor on each unit. You have to point pretty directly at a spot the size of a quarter on each light to get it to turn off/on. I'd really have preferred RF so I could turn them on/off a lot easier.

Big remote. Why is this remote so huge? Holding it, I feel like an old person who should be in a Life Alert commercial trying to reach my comically large phone that's just inches away from my dying grasp. Seriously, the remote is about the size of a half of a deck of playing cards and twice as thick. Totally unnecessary.

If track lighting is a little to costly for you (or if you just don't want to mess around with the electrical work), then I would highly recommend these little babies. They're light weight, battery powered, very easy to install, look nice and produce enough light to to either accent a low-lit room, spotlight a display piece, or illuminate total darkness (such as a small closet). As an added bonus, each light also has a dimmer and every set of three comes with a dual-frequency remote control. And as a further added bonus, the set here comes with all the batteries and mounting materials (screws and velcro adhesive). It even comes with paper mounting guides for the screw placement! All you need is a Phillip's screwdriver and/or a drill and you're good to go. Very high marks for ease of use and super fast set-up.

The only thing I didn't like about these LEDs is that they produce such super cold lighting (i.e., very BLUE). Something more neutral would have been much better. Also, since these are technically spotlights or "key lights," their illumination spread is entirely contingent upon how far they are set from the subject. This doesn't matter so much if you're using them to light a display (like a figurine or painting). But if you're trying give a room additional accent light, you'll have to place these lights very high up for them to blend. Otherwise, I would suggest simply bouncing them from a high wall.

But you can't beat these stand-alone LED lights for the price, and they will do just fine to fulfill many of your track light needs.

Sylvania has discontinued this lamp, and replaced with a 60 watt model that is almost, but not quite as bright, and has a slightly different color temperature.

This bulb is a good replacement for 12V bi-pin lamps. My only complaint is that it is simply not bright enough. If you're purchasing this with the expectation that it will replace a halogen bulb, in terms of brightness, I would suggest something else. In addition, the bulb does not diffuse the LED enough, resulting in directional lighting. The color of the light is more white than a traditional incandescent bulb, however, you can tell it is an LED because the color is slightly off (much like a cheap CFL bulb).

I installed two of these in my Broan range hood, and they really light up the stove top. My hood has 3 brightness settings and these bulbs do work with a dimmer.

I was happy to find these Sylvania PAR20 wide flood bulbs at Amazon. I use them in the Broan hood over my range, which has three brightness settings.

While I like the look of the light itself, I'm a little upset over the longevity of this bulb. I use these bulbs in my bathroom, and they only seem to last barely 1 year before dying. If the 2500 hour listed bulb life was correct, that would mean I'd have left the light on in my bathroom for nearly 7 hours every day, which isn't even close. I'd estimate that I got a 1000 hours of life out of the bulb. By contrast, the twisted-style halogen bulb that I use in my floor lamp in my living room has lasted me nearly 2 years already.

I use two of these in a Broan Allure hood, which has two brightness levels. We never turn the lights off. They are usually on the low setting, and occasionally switched to high. They are rated at 2500 hours presumably on full power. That's about 3.5 months, but I expected to get longer use because they are almost always dimmed.

I started using these bulbs on May 25 of last year, and today is March 17 and the first one has gone out (the other is still going strong). That's nearly 10 months; exactly 296 days, or 7,104 hours of continual use on the dim and occasional bright setting.

The light is warmer than I expected, which is nice. At night, when all the lights are out except these, the kitchen has a nice warm feel. The light spreads out very evenly and the light of the two bulbs blend into each other nicely you don't really notice that the light is coming from two bulbs which are 20 inches apart. Our previous hood had a single light, and we were concerned that the two-lamp hood would produce two distinct hot spots, but this is not the case.

One reviewer said the bulbs are 2.75 inches in diameter. Mine are exactly 2.5 inches and fit my Broan Allure hood with room to spare.

Battery operated, she keeps it in her bed, touch activation easy enough for my 4 year old to use, you can choose from solid yellow, green or blue/purple or all 3 alternating colors. Projects a moon & lots of stars across her whole ceiling... she loves it! Completely Satisfied!

My child loved this light. It was smaller than I thought. I did not read the measurements But it is cute and the lights change colors.

Honest reviews on Twilight Constellation Night Light Galaxy Beetlestar Projection

My kids have been using these for about 3 months, they are still going strong. They both like the setting that changes colors, I like the green one because its very bright. They "camp" in the living room and we turn both of them on so they have a night sky. They do automatically shut off in an hour, this is a blessing sometimes a curse, but I would rather have it turn off than not!

my 3 year old uses this in her bed when she goes to sleep for extra light. It has lasted several months and is just now starting to run low on batteries because the light is quite dim now. 3 year old really likes it though. I like how to has a timmer and turns off automatically.

Boy, it's hard to find a good behind-the-headboard reading lamp. Had ordered one previously with LED bulbs, and, true to the text on the box, it was only usable when all the other lights were off, and even then, you had to be a cat to see the print on a page. This unit has a 50 watt halogen bulb. As a reviewer for a higher-powered unit noted, 100 watts is REALLY hot, especially when it's right above your head. This is warm, but not too bad, and the light is excellent for reading, whether or not there are other lights on. They're attractive (if a bit busy), and appear to be well made with well-fitted parts. Nice touch the lamp comes with the cord cover for simple mounting, and two bulbs.

One warning it's very simple to install, but NOT if you try to follow the included instructions, which are among the very worst I've ever encountered. Anyone familiar with basic how-to projects should be able to mount this in a few minutes without the "help" of the instructions.

We have two George Kovacs reading lamps (different design) over our bed that work pretty well. We bought two of these for our apartment downstairs and they have been nothing but trouble. There are too many joints on this lamp, and they do not tighten well. This resulted in the lamp drooping down onto the pillow and burning the pillow case and pillow before the smoke was noticed (the tenant was out of the room, talking with me at the time).

I have tried to tighten the joints repeatedly with no real success. This past week, one of them shorted out, tripping the breaker and making it unable to reset until we unplugged the lamp and got rid of it. I am now needing to replace these lamps with something else.

We bought pair of these wall sconces about 6 years ago, after a wide search for lamps that were attractive, well made and provided the light needed for our bedroom. We have been happy with them but recently one of them broke at the base of the long single extension where it meets the pivot. We discovered a thin weld holds the rod. We think a light like this, for the amount of money spent, should last decades, not a few years. That said, it may be worth repairing which is our hope. We hope our experience is an isolated one.

The tables lamps I had just were not doing the job for reading. I bought two of these as my wife and I are avid readers. We installed above the bed and they work great. I did a lot of research for a light and this one was perfect.

I have them for a few months and they are working perfectly.

Instalation was easy and did it very fast.
