Hmmm. I'm tempted to think #2 and #3 might be more of these bad units everyone is writing about. (My 1st one didn't work at all.) However, if you're linking them to a central chime unit, I've wondered about the possibility of somehow cross-linking multiple units. If #1 is still working, you might try unlinking 2 & 3 (per the instructions) and relinking #2 before #3 even has a battery in it. Then, if #2 works, proceed to #3. Did they, or do they work when unlinked? Can you complete the walk test with them unlinked, in other word? Just wild guessing on my part here but it's maybe something to try? Another question: could #2 and #3 coincidentally have the same codes and the chime unit can't tell them apart? Heck, I dunno. Mine, at least, is still working perfectly. Good luck.

Hi there...can you describe what you have done so far? They should be working after one good charge. Mine worked the first night.

The red light won't stay on. I've plugged it both in the wall and on my computer and I have no indication that the charge is holding. Is this happening to anyone else or should I return it? I only got it today.

It is normal for them not to work, they are overpriced junk. Look for a better product and save yourself the headache.

Did the ones you had in there, did they work? Mine worked great and was a lot brighter. The new ones might be bad.

I have 5 of these lights, I sent one back because it just flashed constantly. But the remaining 5 lights work perfectly. Important to leave light in solid sunlight in recharge mode for at least 2 days before activating.

Find one with a higher wattage equivalent, they work but not as bright as i would like. I also need to keep one of the original bulbs in the circut. (7) LED & (1) regular filament bulb. If I didn't bulbs would constantly flash. Has to do with Malibu transformer voltage regulator.

That would be up to you, you said they work , how long do they stay on? You should be at least get a few hours out of them we use several of these at our shop and have had a variety of problems that being said , they are the best solution we have found for the price, I left one charging overnight and it finally turned green .

Leave them plugged in for an hour or so and recheck them. I believe I had a similar issue with these initially. I'm anxious to hear if this works for you. I've been really pleased with the lights I am using in our house. Helps so much at night.

I have had two of these and did not have that issue. Actually was pretty impressed with the video You may want to verify that the lights are not causing it. I think you can shut them off.

But mine have seemed to work fine. I haven't put that many hours on them. I purchased 3 and they all worked. Especially combined with other types of lighting.

I have had mine for over a year and they work fine. My sensors are aimed up towards the sky and the lights are below them, facing away from the sensor. Assuming you don't have a defective sensor, I'd try aiming the sensor up and away from the light. It sounds like too much light is being directed at the sensor, which is causing it to turn the light off. When the sensor kills power to the light, it becomes dark, so it turns the light back on. You then get the strobe light effect. So, aim the sensor away from the light.

My red light eventually goes off. I have not had any issues. I typically charge the battery for a couple hours - less may work. Not sure.

The bulbs in mine quit working fairly reg. I sent a set back because the light went out within a week, they really need to improve the setup...The last few times the bulb quit I was able to get it working again by clearing the contact points (screw heads ) where the top connects to the bottom. I loosened the small Phillip's screws and retightened them on the wire then I used a tooth pick in the bulb holder to bend the contact points away from the side so it would contact the bulb. So far this has fixed mine the last 3 times they quit. As far as a bulb the only thing I found that MIGHT work is they sell a replacement lcd bulb for the old 3v MINI- MAG flashlights I found one a Lowes $5 for (2) but I haven't tried one yet..It is nice to have the Lights working I hope Hobbs fixes the poor workmanship of the lights I really like the salt & pepper set.

the red light is supposed to stay on, thats fine. but the sound going off in 1 hour is not normal, I get at least 2 hours on mine. I think you got a defective unit

Yes, I have. I ordered 2 of these. one is OK. On the second one, the light does not turn off. returning.
