Has solved a issue where neighbours leave communal hallway light on that I have to pay for as it's connected to my meter.

I really loved your products until I realised that on your US site you are required by law to state that your lights contain a chemical that causes cancer and birth defects?! Surely there must be an alternative way for you to manufacture your circuit boards, as I don’t see the same warning on any other simple electronic device. I’ve placed multiple orders from your site in the last 6 months and had been recommending your products to friends, but I won’t be doing that anymore.
The night lights are very good. After buying some 4 years ago friends have commented and subsequently bought them as well.
The PIR spotlights are also pretty good but out of the 5 we have installed, 3 lasted just a couple of years. Disappointing but still a better option than having to run mains cables.
Excellent, prompt delivery, even earlier than expected. Lovely to have things at a bargain price. Unfortunately though, the dark brown step light turned out to be white when I opened the box. Although disappointed, I haven’t returned it for environmental reasons.
This is about the fourth Mr. Beams spotlight I have purchased.
They are very good and very cheap to run. However they do seem to have a shelf life after which they seem to develop issues. eg the light will come on and stay on or will come on go off after the set period but then go on again over and over again.
You need to ensure all batteries are at the same voltage. Sometimes retraining the light in a dark cupboard can solve the problems. However in my experience eventually they all succumb to one problem or another. The only solution being to invest in another light.
If the manufacturer could extend the life of these lamps by improving the reliability then they would definitely be a five star purchase.

The order took about eight days to arrive because Royal Mail was too busy. I have been using the mini spot lights for a month now and they're good. The only issue I find is with the tilt mechanism. This has grooves which seem to be too wide apart which means it's not possible to be as precise as I would like with the angle. A solution to this is to put a rubber washer between the grooves and bypass the grooves. Being precise with the angle was important for me because the motion sensor has a wide angle and I didn't want the light to go off every time someone walks along the pavement in front of the house.

The reason I gave 4 stars is I am fed up with being reminded (3 times) to submit a review, if i have to submit one every time I buy something I will stop buying on line. Rant over. The product is good, the ones I bought to light up my lawn so I could walk for parking to back door, isn't a wide enough spread, but overall nice and bright, so buying one more to fill in the dark spot.
Very efficient response to my order, with rapid delivery. Unfortunately the item bought has given some problems with setting it up - the springs holding the batteries in are so strong, and the clips that should hold it all together so poor, that the assembly jumps apart! I have had to resort to using electrical tape to hold it all together.

I was very pleased with the light I bought, its bright and easily fixed to fencing or brick, the only thing that is slightly annoying is the neighbourhood cats keep switching it on all through the night, so it's a little over sensitive, saying that it's great value for money and I like that it's powered by batteries.

Good lights, decent prices and delivery very quick. May want to consider either a screw clamp on the drainpipe holder for a more flexible fit.

Very easy to install, all working well, though one of the six is not wifi working with the others even though it is on the same channel.

Prompt service for a typically good product.
More information is still needed eg how long the lights stay on and the sensitivity is fixed.
