Deal Details
I was in Costco today and I saw these lights setup and marked $31.99 In Store pricing. Close to a year ago there was a SD FP at $30 - https://slickdeals.net/f/16715588-tommy-bahama-solar-led-pathway-lights-6-pack-30?src=SiteSearch. I missed them back then since they weren't in my store but got them this time.

Here is the online link for reference.

Own about 20 of these - as long as you get a full day of sun will easily last through the night. Over winter is a different story - typically will take in and put on battery charger once a week over winter to top up.

Never get solar, you'll be replacing them every few years.
Hard wire once and done.

for the love of God everyone stop buying solar powered yard lights. They suck, full stop. Doesn't matter who makes them. 9 out of 10 times they will stop functioning within a year. In the off chance they actually work as intended, they still look horrible. You will never get any ratio of a solar panel capable of capturing enough energy to output enough lumens that makes a yard light look even remotely decent.

Yes it will put out light, but "any" light does not mean it's good looking light.

Half my neighborhood has put up cheap path or solar garden lights, and they just become plastic eye sores that are all tilted in different directions, and the ones that still work still look pretty pathetic, putting out the equivalent of a keychain light worth of luminosity, often times with a really stupid looking pattern on the ground.

I bought these during the last FP deal and they have been good so far. All 12 of them are still working. What I like about these is that the solar panel is covered by glass so the usual issue of the plastic coated solar panel getting hazy hasn't been an issue with these. The other morning I woke up at 5:30 and the lights were still lit so they can still stay on for 9+ hours.

What a nonsense of a post.

Materials are the same in both solar and hardwired ones and designs are subjective, so not really a point of differentiation either.

Buy expensive solar lights and you will get you paid for. I ve some solar ones, none of them has died and they serve their purpose well (albeit with the limitations, that were already known to me before buying them).

not always true we had one from a set that only failed this year and it might've lasted longer if we had it covered. we bought it years ago.

we watched it fill up slowly with rain over the years until the last led went out in it

If we drained it, it might've lasted even longer but let's say it was an endurance test

I agree to avoid cheapo solar lights. However I don't believe these are cheap or bad. I installed them yesterday afternoon and they operated all night about 9 hours until sunrise. Also they gave off a nice daylight 3000k ish light and not a bright white 5000k.

I also have a several sets of solar string lights in trees which are going on 3 years. You get what you pay for and sometimes a bit of luck. I trenched a Volt up lighting system in my front yard but can't - won't - do that in the backyard where I placed these solar on a stone pathway.

Granted I've got a raving review for one night, we'll see how they do 6 months or even a year. If they suck, then luckily Costco.

It's more effort or money to install hardwired lights, but you're not wrong. Wireless anything is usually cheaper and less reliable. That's the trade-off.
