FYI. This is a very low light output, but they are only $7.

Very low Lumen output: 3 lumens
12 lumens is as bright as a 1 watt light bulb

From Home Depot:
"Below is a list of recommended LED lumens for specific outdoor lighting:



Step lights: 12-100 lumens
Hardscape lights (on walls): 50-185 lumens
Landscape lights: 50-300 lumens
Path lights: 100-200 lumens
Landscape spotlights: 120 lumens
Lamp posts: 120-180 lumens
Pond/pool lights: 200-400 lumens
Motion sensor lights: 300-700 lumens
Flood lights: 700-1300 lumens


A lot of the lumen requirements depend on where the lighting is placed and the main purpose of the light. If you place a light in a darker area, you may require more lumens. If you want the light itself to not be as bright, invest in a bulb that emits fewer lumens."

So, you're complaining that they don't offer you at least 500 lumens for a pack of six and a total of $7? I'm complaining also why GM can't provide the driving comfort of a Mercedes S-Class for their cheap Chevy Spark …

I've been buying these for years. I consider them accent lighting, which is fine for my needs. The do generally last two years, maybe three, and that's after swapping out the solar batteries with freshly charged ones. That is, if the screws don't rust & the wires don't fall off. Plus, once they're toast, I remove the stake, then silicone glue them to my neighbors uncapped fence posts (with their permission), which keeps the yellowjackets from taking up residence in them. They do occasionally end up shattering after a while, so I take them out & replace with newer dead ones. sadly, n/a for me. I would only get the steel ones, not the plastic, fwiw

NEVER buy ANYTHING solar unless its battery is lithium-ion or equivalent. NiCad (should be outlawed are so worthless) and NiMh (still not good) batteries on solar makes them lose any usability after about 3-6months, which makes entire product useless.

This deal isn't actually over. I just found them on the Walmart site same exact Mainstays product 6-count of Solar Crackled Glass LED Path Lights for $6.88. Seems as though, just the price was lowered.

Seems like a great deal, stainless steel and glass and almost $1 each, repped.
Got mine today. Not even a single part is made of steel, except maybe electric contacts. All plastic, as cheap as it can only get and that will start breaking after a few months under the southern sun.

Also the glass bulb is thick and heavy, I am debating if I want to install these along the concrete driveway, especially on such a flimsy plastic stand. One careless hit and this will became a handful of shards.

Yeah, mine also came today and was made of plastic, it seems like they sell two versions of this on the site, one made of plastic, the other 'stainless steel'. I'm going to see how they look after a charge and determine what I'll end up doing. I'm guessing whatever 'stainless steel' they used would've rusted over time anyways.

Yeah... plastic. But the glass seems to actually be glass and is hard and heavy. Contemplating contacting Walmart about the wrong description/false advertising...
