Product Description

Our solar garden stake has a unique design which features an integrated solar panel midway down the stake. Inside is a rechargeable AA NI-MH battery. A color-changing LED atop the stake shines through the clear acrylic 4" x 5" hummingbird to give a spectacular, decorative lighting effect in your garden. Plant the stake in the ground where it will get full sun, and the photo switch in the solar panel automatically turns itself on at night. Your garden stake will begin to glow as darkness falls, and continue to provide a calming light show into the night. (Assembled stands 32" tall)

Customer Reviews

It's Cute at Night!
Even I think color-changing light is a bit tacky, but hey, this is a hummingbird! A clear acrylic hummingbird tops a two-part stake. A rechargeable battery is included and must be inserted into one half of the stake prior to assembly. The solar panel is a disk encircling the stake. The hummingbird is well-done. There's some detail; it's not just a blob.

This baby stays lit all night. It's still lit at sunrise. The LED is a pretty bright light. This piece makes a bold statement at night. That said, it's virtually invisible during the day. I do like it, and will look for more solar/LED lighting now that I've tried this. If you prefer yard art with a little class, you won't like it. If you're into novelty, you will.

Edit May 9, 2009: I stored the unit in the garage over the winter. The solar panel was slightly damaged by wind and rain during the summer. But when I brought it out this year, it still worked, by golly. I bought another one and posted some photos.

Great, but cheaper elsewhere
This is a terrific item that stays lit all evening long. My daughter loves to check it out before she goes to bed each night. We recently purchased it at Lowes for $9.99, so much better to shop around.

Love them, except...
The product is delightful when working correctly. I would have appreciated a problem solving section being included. Four out of the five are working perfectly, but I have no way of solving the problem with the fifth, which didn't occur until after the 30 day return policy was up! I have even attempted to contact the seller, but have received no response to date. I was planning on purchasing more as gifts and a few more for myself, but because of the lack of response, I will look to another manufacturer.
