Solar Lights for Inside, 4 Bulbs Solar Shed Lights with On Off Switch, 30W Solar Panel Kit 115WH Backup Battery with Phone Charger, AC to DC Adapter, Home Solar Power System Complete Kit

I had to write a review on this solar/battery system with the LED lights that come with it. This is a fantastic system that can do so much, and I am very happy I found it a few years ago and bought it. I can't remember what I paid for it then, but it has been worth every penny. It was packaged well, and came to me undamaged. I think I have used it for 3 camping seasons so far, and it can light up my camps like you have on grid lighting.There are 2 different wattages of bulbs, that burn very little power (2.5 and 3 watt I believe), I can't remember now because I have bought other types that also plug into the USB ports and have inline switches. The cords are around 16 feet long with inline switches near the battery pack end where they plug in. I bought shorter ones for closer in, and even bought some USB extension cords to reach farther away. Since there are 5 USB ports on the battery pack, you have 5 options (or more if you add multi port USB extensions). I have to say that I usually don't use all of the 5 lights at once just to conserve energy, but I have had them all on at the same time for several minutes without any issues. Even the smallest wattage lights, one at a time, can light up the whole camp brighter than most lanterns, and I only use a lantern now to set up if I arrive after dark.Another cool thing about the lights are that if you have any kind of portable power pack/supply with a USB port, the lights will also work in them for hours. I have found that the 2.5 watt bulbs will work in a 2-18650 lithium cell pack for a few hours, so that makes them a more portable light source for tents, RV's, hiking, etc. And the cool thing is that you can plug the portable 18650 packs, or anything that can be charged by the 30 watt solar panels, into the power pack to recharge them the next day in the sun. I have several items I recharge while camping, a lithium tent light, cell phones (Usually 3 at a time), my head lamp, portable Bluetooth speakers, battery packs, etc., etc., and they all get charged full by night fall.I did make one modification to the battery pack though that I think is a good idea...I was concerned that the little LED light stays on on the battery pack during storage, so I opened the case, and installed a master battery cut off switch so the power pack wouldn't trickle discharge while not in use. This modification works great to insure the charge is kept maximized over long non use periods. I soldered and shrink tubed the connections to eliminate possible shorts for safety, but this would be a nice factory modification to have a master off switch. I would like to see that, and possibly an optional carrying case like a lightweight suitcase for travel and storage.The panels (that are closely and permanently wire connected side by side) work well, but are bulky when bolted to the frame that came with them. At first I just laid them out on top of my truck, and when breaking camp, I simply folded them together and stored them in a felt bag. But once I took the time to bolt them to the rack, it became too much of a hassle to take them apart, and I was afraid I would loose the tiny nuts, washers, and bolts. I think a good remedy for this system would be a fold up flexible solar panel that could also be more versatile for portability on hikes, boating, and car camping, etc..So about 3 years of use so far and still working great! I love it, and am very happy I chose this system. I would like to see some greater Lithium Ion battery pack and charging sized packaged options from this company, if there is any? There are several companies now coming out with larger battery pack storage options with multiple types of power ports, so it would be nice to have a bigger pack with a pure sine wave inverter built in with 110v and 12v ports. I have numerous ideas if anyone is interested? I hope this helps with anyone looking to go green as much as possible?Ed in Kent, Wa. USA

Have had this item for a few months and I really like it. I set it up in a semi "off grid camper /tiny house and it works great. I used stick on small hooks to run the lines throughout the camper which works well, the lines are plenty long. Honestly, one light in the middle is enough to light just about the entire camper (24 foot) but the others are already in place. Very bright white light. I was only taking the panel outside every week or so when I wanted to charge it a bit but have now moved it to the roof to see if it is in fact waterproof. One charge, (in the green) is plenty to operate at least a couple lights and charge a phone or tablet easily. I have never drained the battery but always turn it off when I go to bed. It would be even better if the individual on/off switched were at the "bulb" end of the lines though instead of near the battery box. I'd like to order another one to have as a backup.

The overall build is really nice. Works fine and charges great with its solar panel. The included lightbulbs are especially nice as they have on/off switches. Other bulbs I've purchased use buttons, which I do not care for, and others do not even have that (they turn on from simply being plugged in).I give 4 stars because my order did have a few issues. It did not include the USB extension cords (Amazon gave me a $15 credit when I told them I did not want a refund, I just wanted to try to get the cords sent), and the handle broke off from simply pulling it out of the styrofoam it came in. The handle and its connector are made of plastic, so I assume the one connector that broke off was simply screwed in too tightly causing it to be cracked. To me this is indicative of quality build, as they made sure it was screwed on tight and secure rather than loose and quickly done. One of the nuts came off on the inside (I don't think it shipped like that, it just came loose over time due to the length of the screws), so I had to remove the case and screw it back on. This caused no issues and was VERY easy to do, FAR easier to open and close than any other battery box I have owned. I should have taken pictures to show how well it is assembled internally and how easy it is to open.Rest assured, this IS a high quality product. I hope the manufacturer makes an identical build just in a larger size. I would love to have this exact shape and design in the size of a lunch pail.

I wanted to save money, protect the environment, and have soft light in my living room when we read or watch TV. This has 4 lights corded to the charger / power storage that we run in the evening. It has cut my electricity usage by about 30% (I also charge tablets and phones on it) It is great to keep this stuff charged without paying someone to do it. Because we have wind a lot I decided to mount them inside my south facing window. I was not certain how well it would charge but it works fine and I don't have to worry about weather damage or vandalism. I would use this for camping or living off grid as well for lights. It has made me brave enough to know that I can install a higher power system if I do choose to live off grid in the future. I would reccomend this system.

Bought our first unit 4.5 years ago for our horse barn. Have had absolutely no problems with the unit in that entire time. Did buy a couple of USB extenders for 2 of the lights, no noticeable power loss in the longer run to the bulbs. accidentally left lights on all night a couple of times, and no power by morning, but for several hours of use it works fine.Bought our second unit 2 years ago. Other than a rabbit chewing through a bulb wire, again absolutely no problems with the unit. Easily replaced, so no major concerns.Both units are protected but not temperature controlled, from temps -10 F to 96 F year round.About to buy a third unit for another outdoor building, so super satisfied.
