GIGALUMI 16 Pack Solar Garden Lights - Waterproof LED for Patio, Lawn & Yard - Cold White - Perfect for Outdoor Landscaping

I bought 6 packages of these lights, one package at a time, throughout the spring. That is 96 total lights. Each time I did a flower bed or walk, I decided to order another and do more. They are a good product provided you understand what you are getting.These are cheaply made. The aluminum tube is thin. The plastic ground insert can bend or break easily. They are not particularly bright, meant to accent a walk way or flower bed rather than provide a lot of light.For the money, I have found that they have offered a lot of value. Of the 96 lights I purchased only one did not light properly. It was shipped in the "on" position and the battery was probably depleted. They look really nice around my pool and along my driveway and walk. They really make the house stand out nicely at night.I also used them in my back yard to line the patio and flower beds. The problem I have there is that two flat coat retrievers and one golden retriever like to play hide and seek in the flower beds and have broken between 6 and 12 of them already. I'll probably search for something that looks similar but is a little more durable, or I might just buy a box once a year and replace the broken ones. I've been saving the "heads" that contain the solar cell, battery, and LED from the ones broken by the dogs so if others go out I can fix them with those. If they are stored away from the light, make sure to put them in the off position.Many of the lights in my back yard are positioned in places that get shade most of the day, so they are being charged on ambient sunlight rather than direct sun. They still light up at least past midnight.I'm in the Northeast (NYC area) so I expect to get some winter weather. I'll have to see how they survive that. But my sense is that they should do ok. I'm sure a few will break from snow blower accidents or the like. They are cheap enough that I won't feel cheated if I have to replace a handful each year.My biggest complaint is that they triggered my OCD and I had to buy measuring wheel so I can make sure they are evenly spaced.
