Would RecommendI put these string of lights in my back yard for the patio to see how they worked and how bright they are. I plan on using them on my camp trailer for the night time. I really liked the brightness of them.
Let there be light
Would RecommendPlaced solar charger in the yard to charge. It charged with no problem. All the lights worked like they should. I am happy with the product and will install it permanently now that I know it works like it should. I would definitely recommend these lights.
Lovely lights
Would RecommendThis product is great and no need for plugging them in. I mounted the solar panel to the house but had the option of putting in the ground with the ground stake provided.
Almost can't tell they are solar!
Would RecommendThese lights actually glow like they are plugged in! I was surprised by how decent they looked. Solar lights have come a long way. Surprisingly, each one of these bulbs is a 3volt screw in bulb, so they can be replaced if you have a defective one, or one should burn out. You can also charge them off a usb port (or external usb battery) so they would be nice for camping. I think my biggest complaint about these is the length, although there is only so much you can run off one cell, these are...
Solar string lights are energy efficient and cozy
Would RecommendSolar string lights are a wonderful addition for our beach house patio. Provides a cozy feel when using our patio and wonderful lighting for nighttime
Fun way to add a festive mood.
Would RecommendPorfolio/Landscape, LED, Black Finish, 18 feet, Solar powered, String Lights with a black finish. Made in Vietnam. The quality seems fine and once charged they work great. There is a connection for charging without sunlight. This is a great set of lights for using in an area where there is no electricity. I set mine up on the garage eave of the roof. It has a variety of modes like slow strobe, fast strobe and heartbeat strobe. I do find that the switch to turn it on to be slow to react and I hav...
A short 15' section that works as advertised
Would RecommendThese work well, but you only get what you get. - the maximum length of the lights is 15' and you cannot connect another string to it. So these work very well to provide a short section of solar lights. The instructions are clear and say not to use staples to anchor the lights; as such, they provide a clip (see photo) that can be used for this. I wove them into an existing string of rope light I had on my deck and that worked well. I used screws to attach the main unit to the deck (see photo...
Nice cafe lights with solar and micro USB charging
Would RecommendI've used the solar powered string lights last night and they worked well. The day before I charged them with a micro USB cable and also had the solar panel outside to charge. It is difficult to plug in the micro USB cable because I think it is recessed too far. The lights are a nice color and lasted the few hours we were outside. A charge level indicator would be nice. There is extra cable between the 1st light and connector so the solar panel can be placed appropriately which is nice.
Great outside lighting
Would RecommendI love outdoor lights, especially if they are solar. I feel like the solar panel is a bit large for one strand of lights, but that is a minor thing to me. The wire is black, which is my preference for lights. The bulbs are a nice size. They put off a nice light for my party deck. They put of a soft yellow gold although the descriptions says white. The lights are LED. The strand itself is 18 feet long. I have to say that the first three feet from the solar panel has no lights on it. This...
I am truly impressed by these lights
Would RecommendThe lights arrived on time and well packaged. Just from the look of the lights, they really look really great and well-made. I highly recommend these lights.
Great product
Would RecommendAfter installation, I waited for the solar panel to charge it up. That evening when I turned them on, they were surprisingly bright and attractive. They lasted until we went to bed which makes them a premium product !
Impressive Battery + Long lasting!
Would RecommendI am reviewing the Harbor Breeze 18.5-ft Solar Black Outdoor String Light with 15 White-Light LED Globe Bulbs. Packaging was careful, and after removing the material everything was shiny and new without scratches. Note that there is a charging port (micro USB) on the side of the solar panel. While charging this way (vs. solar) the panel allows the lights to operate. There are 4 light "modes": Off, On constant, on flashing, and on pulsing/strobe, dependent upon your intended use. Attaching the so...
Lights brighten my house
Would RecommendThe solar lights make my home attractive and bright. I’m really enjoying them. They are quite bright. I moved them from the front of my home to flowing down the driveway which works and looks better.
Awesome patio lights!
Would RecommendReally great addition to our back patio and very easy to set up! The convience of solar energy allows placement anywhere outdoors and has 4 different mode settings.
Multiple function fits any occasion or ambiance.
Would RecommendThinking is a versatile multipurpose use light, Eighteen feet long with fifteen polycarbonate bulbs. These can be for a wedding. An informal outdoor gathering hung Under the Porch draped around a tree. We are limited by our imagination. Each bulb can be hung by the hook built on the housing. The light emitted falls in the 4500 spectrum. The solar can be charged be the sun or an android adapter. It has four different light setting.
Let there be light! (Solar)
Would RecommendI needed some mood lighting for my outdoor seating area. Because of the location electricity was not convenient so solar was a must. I wanted a good strong light that wasn't overpowering. As you can see from the pictures, I nailed it! Very happy with the product. Complete, easy to install and great results!
Black, finished, string lights, 15 lights, 18 feet
Would RecommendThe box says black, finish, string lights, 15 light sockets, 18 feet long by Portfolio landscape. The part number for these lightbulbs are 285-1291, and they are solar LEDs lights. The lightbulbs are set up so you can hang them from a gutter, or a wire. However, we opted to hang them with electrical NM staples, 3/4 , under our patio Eve. It should take you approximately 20 minutes start to finish at the most. We started out by hanging the solar panel first. The back of the solar panel has a on a...
Harbor Breeze Solar lights could be better
Would RecommendFirst and foremost these lights have a dust to dawn sensor so if you think you have a defective set wait until dark I didn't see this anywhere in the operating instructions. They came packed very well. It was easy to install, they have clips just like Christmas lights would have. The wires feel very supple so I will hope that they will hold up to the environment outside. I like the fact that you have a micro USB port for charging or if you want to extend the time your lights are on, you can use...
Didn't Work!
Would Not RecommendJunk! Didn't work right out of the box. I hung them up, got the solar panel set up facing the sun, made sure it had plenty of charge. . . . and. . . . they didn't work. I waited another day to make sure it wasn't just me, and still nothing. Also, they have 4 modes - steady on, slow strobe, fast strobe, and heartbeat strobe. Not sure who you ever want bistro lights in a strobe. . . .

Cute little solar lights
Would Not RecommendCute little light strand. The quality is a little lacking for an outdoor strand of lights, but still better than your average Christmas lights. It has multiple functions but I am not sure what the strobe functions would be good for. Lastly, 15 feet is just not quite long enough for party lights.
Hello Janza156,
Thank you for the feedback and useful tips! We are glad to hear that you are enjoying your new outdoor solar string lights...
