Not that this is relevant, but I have to say that those jeans definitely agree with you! 🤩
Okay this is why I need a husband- I hate doing things like this, but love watching others do it. I’ll cook and clean whole hubby takes care of these tasks. Thanks for providing this How To video. I just purchased solar lights, but it’ll take me a month to convince myself to get out and do it. 😂
Did someone order a young husband with vitality?? HERE IM IZ!!! lol
Im a woman and loved doing this. What u talking abt
Hi Everyone just a quick update on these Solar Pathway Ligjts. We installed these over 4 months ago and ALL 12 still work perfectly. So keep this in mind when you are looking Solar Pathway Lights. Thanks for watching!
We just bought 12 of these two weeks ago. Thanks for video.
It was very helpful. Saved time to figure out how to open take out the adhesive. No instruction on product
I have these.Just installed them last month. I love them.
Loved it, keep them coming!
Great video, I love your channel!
Spot on!
Thank you for watching and if you subscribed thank you as well!!
Great job!! I actually got 8 and I’m gonna get a few more . I’m satisfied with the lights :)
Yep I have had them for 4 months and they still work perfectly. Thanks for watching and if you subscribed thank you as well.
So this is our 6 month update. All 12 solar lights work perfectly. They stay on until about 400am which is about 8 hours of battery life per day charge. Enjoy!
Does Hampton sell replacement bulbs for these lamps?
@@richardd.mangone5991I don't think so. Their so cheap it's better to get a whole new light.
@@UltimateTechHub Thanks for the response...
@@richardd.mangone5991 No problem
when I first bought my house, i installed powered lights. I was younger than and did not mind all the digging and burying of the cables. Those lights lasted about 10 years. Now I went ahead and bought Hampton Bay lights. For the price for 5 , $26.00 and the easy of installation I cant complain. My lights are similar to the ones in this video, but I used them in my back yard where the light diffusion is better suited.
I have the same lights. Installed 3 in hard dirt like you this evening.. Your video confirned I'll need to get a hand shovel to get the stake below surface level. Was really struggling this evening w/o one 😥. Thx for the vid 👍
Yep a hand shovel is a must in hard soil. These lights are very good. I've had mine for about 4 months and all 12 lights are still working perfectly. Thanks for watching and if you subscribed thank you as well.
Thank you ❤
Thank you! My dumbass bought 11 of these, had them installed for 2 days and couldn’t figure out why they wouldn’t light up.. I hadn’t pulled the tag 😂😂
Lol! Glad to help and thank you for watching!
I can’t even get the top off to remove the tab. About to take them back.
Helpful video. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
I bought these this morning such a good deal
Congrats they are great for the price.
I hope you enjoy this video. This was a lot of fun installing the Hampton Bay solar pathway lights! Any questions please fell free to ask,
Thanks! The hard part was closing back up, but got it quick.
Enjoy!
They look good to me
Thanks for watching!
To me also, love the starry pattern.
Hi, I enjoyed the video and thought it contained some great info. But I have some feedback. Rather than repeatedly showing yourself hammering in the stakes, it would have been more helpful to get more info about the putting the "tricky" tops back on, and what you learned about how to make it work well. That's what we CZcamsr's want to know, how to deal with the hard stuff, the unexpected problems and challenges. Finally, I was really disappointed that you didn't include video of the result of installing the lights by showing us how all the lights looked in front of your house after dark. :-)
Easy to assemble and install. But after charging for 8 hours in bright sunshine they give off the light of only a match (20 lumens vs 800 lumens for a standard light bulb) and go out after only about 8 hours. Much less on cloudy days. Good for only decorative lighting.
For the price its a pretty good light. I've already replace mine after 2 years of use. Thank you for watching!
How have they held up over the year ? Great 👍video
Yes they are on right now. Only 1 of the 12 seems to have a weak battery. 11 or all good!!! Thanks for watching!!!
You need a pike for breaking up hard soil for projects like this.
A very affordable and easy way to add lighting to your house and yard.
Yes that is a great tool to break up the hard ground. FYI all of these lights still work great. Thank you for watching!
@@UltimateTechHub he means a pick axe?
Not liking the lighting either but good video
It was easy putting them back on, wax on wax off the mister Miyagi method😁
I installed mine today. At first the lights were not staying on when I would put the solar part right side up. They finally turned on and one light is now not on. I took the tab out from underneath and made sure they were in full sun for 12 hours. Is there something else I need to do to ensure they light up and stay on? Also I noticed that you took off adhesive from the top but could not figure out how to take mine off. Do you think that could be the problem? And how do you take adhesive off?
The film on top of the solar panel needs to cone off so the solar will fully charge. Give the lights a couple of days to get charged from the sun. They should work just fine. Thank you for watching.
@@UltimateTechHub thank you. I will try to take the film off
@@UltimateTechHub hi I’m sorry to bother you but I can’t see that it has any film and when I tried to peel off anything from the edges nothing comes up. Do I have to take apart ? Or maybe some don’t come with film? Ty!!
@@jessicaeubanks1400 Maybe yours don't come with the film. This video is about 2 years old and products do change over time.
anybody know what the measurement on the ground stake
Should you bring the lights inside during the winter?
No they are weather proof.
@@UltimateTechHub thank you
On the instructions of some solar lights, it says specifically not to hammer in the stakes, and to push then in by hand. His stake broke because it wasn't designed for the high forces of being hammered in. Be careful with solar lights!
What equipment did you use
Hammer, small garden shovle and gloves, that's it. Easy. Thanks for watching!
I've bent hand shovels on less work than this..... get a good one!
..... and I'll just sit here typing comments rather than go out and install mine... to be fair, it is raining 😶
a few lamps won't light up unless I place a hand over or a small piece of paper on top. why?
they may be sensing too much ambient light... are they closer to another light source, street light, etc ? Perhaps some weatherproof layers of cloth/mesh duct taped to the corners will help shade the sensor.
So how is all 12 solar lights going ?
10 of the 12 work well and 2 of them only last 2 or 3 hours but its been about 18 months since installation. Thank you for watching I really appreciate it.
I am hard time taking the top off :(
It's kind of tricky that's for sure.
How on earth do you get the top off?
Nevermind, husband with stronger hands than mine got the tops off.
The Tops are bit difficult to remove. Enjoy the new lights. Mine lasted over 2 years before the batteries stop charging in some of the lights. Thanks for watching.
3:22 "They are good, but not great. I recommend, but not really."
Mmm, how about explaining why those conclusions. Is it durability issues? Not bright enough? Cheap?
You don't explain how to make sure they are installed so they stand up straight! It's soooo difficult!
It depends on the soil you are installing in. Mine is hard soil. It can be difficult. Good luck.
DONT BUY THEM I BOUGHT SOME WEEK AGO THEY ARE VERY NICE LOOKING BUT THEY WONT STAY ON LONGER THAN 4 HOURS/AND YES THEY ARE IN THE DIRECT SUN
