Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought a pack of these a couple of months ago, and they really work. Like the review ahead of me, they do what they say. Main good points: Very solid build, does not require direct sunlight to charge, easily changed backup coin cells, runs a long time on a full charge, nice usable amount of light. Cons: the on-off switch isn't labled, so if you don't use it regularly it is not clear if you are running off the solar cell or running down your backup coin cells. Takes a long time to fully charge the solar cell if the battery is completely run down (2 days direct sunlight, 1 week if set in a window that gets daylight but no direct sun). These are really useful lights. UPDATE 10/21/10. I've now had them about 1 1/2 years and still going strong. Well made. UPDATE 9/6/15 I've now had the original pair 6 or 7 years, still going strong and regularly used. I have purchased about 8 others over the past 6 years, and all except one work just fine. One recently stopped charging. I have contacted hybridlight for warrantee replacement, We will see how good the "Limited Lifetime Guarantee" is.
