I want to use this on a patio to repel intruders. Is a spotlight or a floodlight?

It lights up a pretty wide angle. And the sensor also has a wide angle. I think it would be fine for your purpose.

I think it's a bit more spotlight than floodlight, but the light is not terribly focused (has decent spread). I'd say this would be a good option to light a smaller area like for a door or window area versus lighting up a whole yard or driveway.

flood light. I bought this for my nephew, as his apartment was burglarized and he needed a light on his patio. Absolutely perfect for it!

I believe it is a floodlight. Very bright, more than I expected. I have five of them for my barn that I have on solar from a battery. I am very anal so just buy it, there good.

Don't think it's because your using outdoors, it's labeled for indoor or out door use. I use two of them in my outdoor security lights, and have not had any problems. My lights are protected by the roof overhang, but even if they weren't the fixture is sealed well enough to keep the weather out. it sound like others have mentioned, a loose bulb, or a loose electrical wire connection

I appreciate the response. Was looking for a white colored solar light in our backyard patio area that was both good looking and wouldn't go "bright" every time a person moved/motion was detected. I'll keep looking.

It's a fixed flood. Advertised as 240 lumens, doesn't seem that bright compared to my 65 lumen Surefires. I'm going a bit stronger with my next light, maybe 600, just to be sure. LED's don't seem to be as focused as regular but run on AA batts.

This question goes WAY beyond my technical knowledge -- and probably that of most others on here. The company should provide an answer for such an unusual question -- and if not, buy a different product. There are a number of floodlight sensors available that cover large angles. If you have a light that is strong enough to cover a 300 degree area, be careful it doesn't overload the switching capacity of the sensor. Or maybe you could use a second post lamp that covers part of the area you're seeking to illuminate. Good luck.

The beam is more of a floodlight than a spotlight. The laser does a nice job of pin pointing target though.

It is a floodlight to light up a spot in the yard. Do not expect the light to shine very far, but it work excellent up to 10 feet or so.

They are outdoor lights but I would not buy another one. They seem to leak or something which causes them to dim when it rains.

Here is the one I use. http://www.goldengadgets.com/ground-stakes-for-outdoor-led-flood-lights.html

No, not a typical flood light. More of a work light but floods the area with light.

The All Pro Outdoor Security light has LED lighting which is included. It's not a bulb.

I have installed two outside in a lighting fixture similar to the "Nautical Outdoor Burnished Bronze 8 in. Outdoor Wall Light" sold on Amazon.com, mine was purchased locally . The fixtures protect the lights from direct rain and are inside a glass globe, however it is not sealed with a gasket.They run from dusk to dawn on a timer. To date I have had zero issues.

We use it as a spot light for outdoor Christmas decorations. We've had lots of problems with other types of flood lights, but we've been very satisfied with this one.

Yes...it's a goofy light. Does what you said which is not by design. I had it outside for security but it didn't work as described. It's in my garage and for some reason works and then doesn't work. If I could grab the engineer by the throat and have him explain why this doesn't work...I'd be happy.

I would descibe it as a spotlight because, in my opinion, it doesn't produce enough light to "flood" an area.
