Are these lights really bright? I'm thinking on using it for a garden... (Putting these ones in the roof)

We have them on the steps on the side of our house. They last about four to five hours if they receive a lot of direct sunlight (like in the summer). However, now in the winter months they are useless. I live in LA where the sun usually shines and they still don't charge in the winter. I would not purchase again.

The lights aren't very bright. The light is rather soft, but sufficient for stairs. They've been great

Not that bright to be used on the roof. Good for lighting a path or stairs.

No they are not that bright. Would probably compare it to those led night light bulbs. Best guess would be around 20 to 30 lumins?

They aren't very bright, and the light pattern is best suited to use on stairs. I had to create reflectors for my application.

Yes, they will work outside with little to no problems at all. I use them to light up my land scape in the backyard. I have been using them for about six months on. The only problem I had was that two of them burned out within two months of installing them, so they had to be replaced, as for the other 5 they have been working great. Hope that this helps.

they are very bright. I Used them in my kitchen under cabinet lighting and brighter then the fluorescent they replaced.

As long as your plants are under the light you should be fine. These are very bright.

Mine were all bright. I set them up kind of like the product picture. However no there is no way to make them brighter. Try straightening the stalks and adjust from the center

Yes they are a bit bright. I just tied a bandana over it to cover the lights. Otherwise it's a wonderful fan.

They are. I have mine outside and they do fine. Not very bright as the moment though, but I'm in Oregon where it gets dark so early. They were a bit brighter when I first got them, earlier in the year, and I expect them to do very well this summer.

yes they are brighter, I would probably say about half again brighter than your halogen lights. I have these hooked up where they turn on when my bright lights do. When other people flash there bright lights at me thinking I have my brights on when I only have my dims on these lights will make them think there's an airplane fixing to land on them. They are awesome.

They are pretty bright. It can lighten up a dark room. You can see it clearly out in the sun.

The light output is roughly that of a 30 to 40 watt bulb so it would not be bright. That said, I bet these would work great for landscaping. I used one for the balcony light and it works wonderfully - another lights up a silk tree in the corner and the effect is very cool. Too much exposure to the weather might not be too friendly for the bulb so keep that in mind. My first bulb, btw, has lasted over a year now.

I have had the lights only a short while. They are lovely - and give soft glowing light - not the kind like switching on the porch light. Mine are out where they get rained on. So far they light well. I have other solar lights - 4 of various types - which I have had a year or more. Of 4, 3 have continued to work well, even in heavy downpours. The 4th works intermittently.

I used these lights in a small travel trailer I built.. two on each side under the counters.. They light it up so I can do everything I need to at night.. Brighter than I thought they would be.. But I don't know what your expectations are.. I would get them and see if they would work.. If not at least you have a measuring stick in " Lumens " and you spent very little.. I am more than happy with them..

Not in my estimation. But that being said, there is no such thing as "too bright" in a garage like work place. I'm not 20 anymore. YMMV. I did have a 50% instantaneous failure rate (the fan quit working) on the two I ordered. In free standing, downward facing open fixtures I'd think that'd be the BEST application for these lamps. Anything enclosed, not so much. They appear to be a first attempt and as such, I think they'll get the kinks out.

It is not super bright. I would guess on the lower end of the lumen rating per watts. I bought them because the light is on all the time.

They are great for indoor but not enough power for outdoors. You will need halogen lights to do that from Home Depot .
