Wow. Solar Motion LEDs have come a long ways. This unit certainly *lights* up the yard (enough to come close to 120v a/c electric lights). It's sturdy in build and easy to mount with two screws for the light assembly and four screws for the solar panel. I didn't get a chance to measure the cable since I placed the two just inches apart.
I also liked that the light has two high performance LEDs instead of a cluster of older generation LEDs.
This didn't get 5 stars because there wasn't a way to change the length of time the light stayed on. There was just a switch that was Off, On, or Test.
If this light lasts a couple of weeks, I may consider getting a few more.

Fast forward one year and I decided to get another one. This time, the unit is defective. At night, the light does not shut off and ends up draining the battery very quickly. I've requested for a return from Smarthome.

The light is very bright and I love that the solar panel is detached and has a long cord so you can position it to catch the sun. The downsides are that you can't set how long the light stays on, it only stays on for about a minute, and you can't really set the sensitivity of the motion detector either. Much easier to install than a wired in security light! An enclosed sticker even guides you where to mount the screws. Wish it could be set to at least stay on at least 3 minutes... but oh well.

This Light is awesome. I use it to light my parking pad off the alley behind my house since my car was vandalized. I have it mounted about 10' to 12' up in a tree. I mounted both units (the Solar collector & the battery / lights) to a piece of pvc lumber and zip tied it to the tree. It now lights when I pull up to the parking pad (30' 40') very nice.

I just installed mine, and it works wonderfully well. Very bright, and even my dog can turn it on when he walks by. I expect to get many years of excellent service out of it. Doc
