Deluxe

This is my second purchase - the first one lasted three years. This may not seem like a long time, but with the Florida sun and storms beating on it, I felt it held up extremely well. Over time, the solar panels become hazy from the elements. The light is exceptionally bright and performance is consistent.

I had to improvise on the installation. My flag pole may be different but it is a pole that came with a 3x5 foot flag and has a round finial. I had to get a longer bolt and do away with the finial which doesn’t bother me that much because of the size of this light you could not see the finial anyway. Be sure you wait until dark to check the position of the light on and off switch. Mine came in the off position but pressing it doesn’t really let you know visibly if it is on or off. Otherwise the light is bright and unit seems to be of good quality. As I write this review our night hours are right at 12 hours. I checked this morning at 5am and although the light was still burning it wasn’t very bright. Guess it made it til dawn.

Update April 2025 - Not pleased that this happened after only a few months of use, but other buyers should be aware. The seal on the top does not stop water from entering the battery chamber, and during the Winter months, that seal failed and allowed water and melted ice to enter the battery compartment and rust the contacts. The light has failed internally, and I can no longer use it. The original review is below, and I stand by that, but it has now failed after 7 months of use. This one is working. Only for a few weeks now, but working well. I wanted to look at the battery used inside this light and was pleased to find that it uses standard 1.5v AA batteries that are rechargeable. The battery compartment is on the bottom and easily opened using a No.1 Phillips screwdriver I use EBL (Extended Battery Life)* rechargeables and have for years, so I used those in place of the batteries that were in there. Nothing was wrong with the ones that were in there, I just wanted a set I knew was at full charge when I mounted this on the flagpole. The solar panels keep them fully charged from day to day and it so far has been lit every morning until the Sun rises. The original batteries can be charged using the battery charger I have used for nearly 15 years that I bought at Harbor Freight (No Longer Available). This light shines down from about 15-20 feet and casts a light on the flag and out around its base approximately 10 ft. in diameter. It does all it needs to do to follow flag protocol on flying a flag all night and during inclement weather, which I do. I fly a 3x5 Storm Flag also available here on Amazon.

The first picture is an enhanced evening shot. Looks fabulous doesn't it? The second is shot is what you would actually see with the naked eye. It still looks good. Let's face it, I was optimistic about this product. A friend buys these every three to five years for his flag in New Hampshire. We are talking some serious heat, winds, humidity, and extreme cold. Oh, I forgot to mention he lives on a lake. If he likes it that much I'd give it a try. So far it has beat my expectations. How long it stays on is where I dropped it to four stars. Granted it's a solar light. The amount of light it gets throughout the day will determine how long it stays lit. For most nights it turns after last light and lasts till about 1 a.m. Basically, it means it lasts about 7 hours. I was really hoping for 12. It's not the unit that is bad, it's the location that it's in. It doesn't get direct sunlight after 3 pm. It lays in the shadow of the house. This explains why. Nuff said. It is a decent unit. Works well and easy to install.

GREAT PRODUCT!

Brilliant thank you

Fast delivery to Australia, had no problem installing on a custom flag pole.

Had a small issue with the product and within the same day they have completely resolved the issue. Very happy with the service.

I would highly recommend this product
