Brighter light than i expected but the nubs can break easily so I just drilled a small hole in to the bottom plate into the wood and used a small screw.Work well. Are easy to install. They look good and one has really to get close to see that its not really metal.VERY hard to install and I am pretty handy. the complication is once you screw the plate on the pole trying to line up the holes. The look nice and have lasted 2 yrs so far.Great solars but rusts easily.Look great and work wellCheap plastic. Easy to install. Not enough light to illuminate my deck stairs.Very nice lights. Brighter than expected and EZ install. Great Job!!!Two lights quit working after two weeks.
