4/30/2025, Update after 2nd purchase:1) I didn’t replace the light strips previously installed like I’d considered doing. They still work and I didn’t want to go to the extra effort at the time.2) The new rechargeable units now have USB-C connections. I still use the remaining (working) battery/power unit from the old set plus the new ones, so now there’s always at least one battery unit charged, ready to go.Original/previous updates:I installed both sets of these under our stair rail, literally on the rail, one set going from the bottom toward the top and the other set going from the top toward the bottom about 2 years ago. We have zero electrical outlets available in that area.Ideal solutions would have been to have electrical outlets and/or lighting installed by a professional so I’d never have to worry about it again. But the cost is probably why we all look for these alternative solutions, right?On my 8’7” rail and due to my installation (6.5 feet each way) the light strips meet and overlap side to side.TIP based on my installation experience: (see product instructions for where to cut) Cut both light strips shorter so they just meet in the middle of your rail (as closely as possible given the length of rail and the appropriate cutting spots on the light strips) so that side-to-side overlap won’t exist and there’s not a risk of getting cut from sliding fingers over the edge of a light strip sticking out from under the rail. Thankfully this hasn’t happened to us to date and I’ll likely just replace with the new set I buy this way too. I also recommend installing over the rail attachments to the wall (see photos) because it keeps the light strips away from the edges of the rail.The main problem we’ve experienced is that one power cord RECEPTACLE (for recharging) on the device broke after about 20 or so months and is not repairable unless you’re knowledgeable about trying to solder that piece back on to a green electronics board (chip board?) inside. I cannot just order a replacement or I haven’t found a way. So I’m looking at ordering a full new set just to replace the power pack/motion sensor due to that broken power receptor.The second “problem” is simply that we have to recharge the ends somewhat frequently, but I’ve never considered it a problem so much as just a small task that needs done on a regular basis.BOTTOM LINE: For the overall cost and effectiveness, based on our needs, this product has been worth it for us. Not having to turn on the bright overhead hall light in order to see at night or early in the morning to get down the stairs is pretty nice.SIDE NOTE: I’d consider another similar light for my hallway since it weirdly has no outlets either, the stairs are at the far end, and it takes a moment for the motion sensor on this product to detect me when I enter the hall, probably due to being slightly out of range for the sensor, in case that’s useful for you to consider too. The adhesive has held for the entire time. I did use rubbing alcohol to clean the bottom of the rail before install. I think you’ll find rails are very dirty unless you clean them a lot.

I purchased this solution as my house is old (built in 1905) and the stairs are dark. I've had guests trip going up and down the stairs so I figured why not light the path for safety. I will break down the review into three parts, motion detection, brightness and installation.Motion DetectionAccording to the instructions, the sensor has a range of 7-10 ft. It's sensitivity is appropriate from proximity as when I get by the stairs, it lights up. The operation is instant on with no pattern and after no motion is detected for 25 seconds it shuts off. One thing to note is when turning off the lights in my foyer, the lights automatically turn on. I don't know if it matters to anyone but I find it helpful as I don't have to get near the sensor in the dark for it to activate. One thing to note is since both ends pass power, when both sensors are tripped, the lights get even brighter.I charged the sensors out of the box and it took a long time to complete charging (the instructions state 2-4 hours). I heard some people had issues with the battery packs not holding a charge after a while so I will update my review after a month to give my experience.BrightnessThe package states it has an output of 220 lumens. As I do not have a means to confirm this, I take it for face value. The strip produces enough light to illuminate the stairs in the dark and in ambient lighting. However, I would prefer it if the strip was a bit brighter for my own personal taste. Further, I feel the LEDs are a bit too spread out and feel it would benefit with a closer set of LEDs or double the LEDs.Note: I chose the 6000k color temperature as I felt it suited my needs.InstallationAs with any project, one must start with prep work by cleaning the surface for the lights to adhere. As this is my house, I went the extra mile. I swept and steamed the stairs from top to bottom. For the area where I adhered the lights, I hit it with a dry wipe then used lysol wipes and let it dry.As I have a landing, I employed the use of another person to hold the lights so I can stretch it out to see both ends and get an idea of placement. Then I peeled the backing of the iron sheets and placed the sensor on the lower part of the stairs. I plugged it up and started peeling the backing off and affixed the LED strip to the staircase (disconnecting once I got the initial part of the strip adhered). When I got to the landing I had to come around so I cut the strip and tethered it with the included connectors. I secured the cord and continued to the last part at the top of the stairs. Once the entire strip was installed, I mounteded the second sensor and the task was complete.I say the installation was fairly easy that an inexperienced individual could attempt it and be successful and the time it took to complete from start to finish was about 30 minutes where most of the time was dedicated to prep work. Adhering the LEDs was the easiest part while the wire connector part (unnecessary in some cases) took a little time to work with as I had accidentally peeled the backing in the area that was going to be connected. It just made things more difficult because the sticky part kept sticking to my fingers or the connector in the wrong area.Final ThoughtsI recommend purchasing these lights as I believe they provide great value for the cost. Unless you're willing to go all out for an illumination solution for your stairs, this simple solution works great! The ability to have the lights powered by battery provides the freedom to mount the solution virtually anywhere.I took as many pictures as I could for an idea of what to expect.

Installed in a dark stairway that had only one dim light fixture at the top. Installation was simple and took a matter of minutes, and they are virtually unnoticeable until they light up. Remote sensors work as expected and battery life seems to be at least 30 days or more. The lights give off just the right amount of lumens to fully light the stairway without being blindingly bright. The only complaint I have is the lights gradually get dimmer as the battery drains and I would prefer full lighting until the battery is dead, but not a deal breaker. I’ve never really paid attention to how long it takes to recharge the sensors as I just plug them in in the morning and replace them that evening, but they don’t seem to be especially quick charging. Came well packaged with clear instruction.
