Cool, hope you like it. It's an auto porch light. It comes on at dusk or dark in just dim mode, it brightens up as someone nears the perimeter, but then shuts back down to dim mode until daylight when it turns itself off.

I bought a couple of solar motion detector LED lights to play with. I might hang them on something if it looks like there are raccoons or other critters around some nights. Now I just have to finish enough to go camping

Home Depot had a display of those awhile back for about 12 dollars. I bought one to put over the shed door in the back yard.

Bob,
Once it has a day or two to fully charge from the sun, it will operate as intended.
You should only have to use that little "stick" key once.

Each evening it should turn on in dim mode and only go on high mode if you are near the door.
Each morning it should turn itself off.

I have not had to use that little "stick" key again, although I have it handy if needed, but I haven't had to use it.

Give it another day to charge. I think they come from Amazon not fully charged, just partially holding a charge depending how long they've been in the box.

Other thought is to return if not satisfied which isn't a hassle as Amazon has a good return policy.

well I could try this. as I read on another board build a nice fire next to it and charge it up.

I think you may be right I will have to wait until I get to sunny az to get it fully charged.

I will keep you posted but I like it!!
