SUNVIE 24 Pack Low Voltage Landscape Lights LED Spotlights with Connectors

Replaced older halogen low voltage lights in our yard, so in my case, the cable was already in place and I was just swapping out our old lights with these new lights. Below are pros and cons, but I will say that the cons are simply minor issues that do not take anything away from how great these lights are. In my case, my cable was already in place so I didn't have the luxury of laying it out and comfortably working on a nice, flat deck/garden area. Instead, I was leaning into shrubs, bushes, planter beds . . . working with small connectors and a small allen wrench . . . made me feel like I was all thumbs. If you are laying these out in a new install and have the luxury of being able to work comfortably, then the connections should pose no problem. I only struggled because my layout meant I was on my belly, knees or hunched over trying to work among branches and growth. On more than several occasions, I dropped a piece of the connector and had to rummage through leaves and mulch to try to find it. The connector pieces are the only parts of these lights that are plastic. I was cautious with these. On the one hand, they require some pressure to screw down because the pin needs to pierce the cable. On the other hand, they are plastic and I didn't want to strip the threads. Assuming they won't be taken on and off once they're connected, stripping the threads with on-off use shouldn't be a concern. I initially followed the recommendation of a previous reviewer and waited to attach the stake to the light until after I pushed the stake into the ground. The previous reviewer suggested doing this because the stake bent a bit when pushing it into hard soil. After struggling with the first two, I changed strategy and attached all the stakes to the lights beforehand. I found it easier to have them connected ahead of time because the little screw that connects the stake to the light is tiny and requires an allen wrench - - not easy to do once the stake is in the ground. I just used a weeder to create a hole if the soil was packed and hard. Pros: - these screw-on connectors are a huge improvement compared to squeeze-together or screw-on connectors - small sized lights, but they are incredibly and surprisingly bright - - they even light up branches high up in the trees and wash the full height of walls with light - all metal construction - - only the connector pieces are plastic Cons: - connector pieces are small and the screw that holds the stake into the light requires an allen wrench ( it's provided) - the connector pieces are plastic - - the only parts of these lights that aren't metal. - would love it if the color temp was a bit cooler - - it's a warm white; probably around a 2800-3000k - - I'd love a 4000-4500k temp All being said, I'd buy these again in a heartbeat.

Generally I was very satisfied with this product. The lights are constructed of good quality aluminum, have a quality appearance and are far brighter than expected. Initially only 11 of the 12 lights worked. When I contacted Sunvie the response was immediate and without question Sunvie replaced the single inoperable light with two replacement lights. I have and will purchase these lights again for my next lighting project.

I bought this Sunvie Landscape Lighting Kit in September of last year and installed it using the Sunvie 12 ga. low voltage wire. Initially, I was impressed by the quality and design of each light: they are well-built and felt sturdy. Installation was easy and intuitive. The instructions were clear, and everything I needed was included in the kit. Once set up, the lighting transformed my outdoor space, adding a beautiful soft glow to my garden and property. The adjustable angles let me do creative uplights and highlights of different features, from garden beds, pathways, etc. The LED bulbs are bright and energy-efficient, providing plenty of light at minimal electrical cost. After a few months, however, some of the lights started to either dim or totally fail. Unfortunately, the bulb metal casing is sealed (to make it waterproof, maybe?) so the bulb can't be replaced. But product support was quick to respond to my inquiry and sent the replacement lights right away. Overall, I am pleased with this product and how the manufacturer promptly responded to the issue I reported. If you want landscape lights to enhance the curb appeal of your home and create an attractive outdoor look, I recommend this Sunvie landscape lighting kit with great customer service!

I have purchased two sets of these over a the past couple years. They work great - but be warned - they are bright and you do not want them aimed into anyone eyes. The output color seems cooler than 2700, but but warmer than 3300K. The connectors are a little tight onto twelve gauge outdoor wire, but pushing against a small solid board as a mini, on the ground, work-bench made things much easier. Connecting the LED leads into the connectors "screw"and "pinch" scheme is a little trickier, but after a couple, I got the hang of it and did not have to re-strip , re-tin (solder) or re-work any more. After two years for the 1st set, I had one failure - likely due to water intrusion. For my second set one light fixture that was missing the cap which holds the wires in place. I contacted Sunvie customer support through their web site. A human responded and after ending a couple pictures - was promptly (days) sent two replacement fixtures. A great DIY set for our Northern California yard. If we had snow, humidity, or much summer rain, I might expect them to succumb to water damage more quickly - but that's just a guess. Would buy again for the next bit of yard to light up. And for the price, I simply plan to keep a couple spares on hand.

I am very pleased with my new Sunvie Landscape Lighting. I bought the 12 pack to replace an older 20 w halogen Malibu lighting set. Why a value? At $92 for 12 LED landscape lights the cost per llight is only $7.66. Compare that to Home Depot for Malibu lights at $20 + each...a no brainer. The best part is that these are great lights for the following reasons: 1) they are all metal construction and are solidly built. They should last a long time, 2) the light is much brighter than the 20W halogen lights I replaced and really highlight my house and garden areas. 3) the connector design is fantastic and is superior to the clamp style. Connecting the lights to the cable is fast and 100% accurate. I connected all 12 lights the first time (they all lit up) with a simple twist of the connector. The lights can easily and quickly be disconnected from the connector (leaving the connector attached to the cable) if you need to remove them. 4) The lights are sealed so no more water or bugs getting into the lights, and 5) with a 50,000 hour life for the LED, this should eliminate the hassle of replacing light bulbs for a very long time. The only thing that you need to be careful of is how you stick the metal spike into the ground. I made the mistake of connecting the spike to the light first then attempted to push the light into the ground by pushing on the light head. DO NOT do that because, if your ground is hard, you will bend the U shaped clamp that holds the light to the spike. The correct way is to push the spike into the ground first, then attach the light to the spike using the provided screw and tighten with the included Allen wrench. Other than that error, this is a great light set. I would definitely buy this set again. Update: 7/16/21 I have adjusted my rating from 5 stars to 3 stars for the following reasons: 1) After two months 2 of the 24 LED lights (I bought a second set of 12) stopped working for no apparent reason, and 2) I am noticing condensation forming on the inside of the glass on 50% of the lights. Summers are pretty humid where I live, so there must be a temperature difference between the inside and outside of the glass causing the condensate to form. If the condensate drips down onto the LED my assumption is that the light would fail. Time will tell. I never had condensate on my Malibu lights because of the heat generated by the halogen lights (there is no heat generated by the LED lights). Update: 7/23/21 I have increased my rating to 4 stars because of the excellent customer service from Sunvie. I contacted them through the Amazon link and described my problem of having 2 lights fail (out of 24). They immediately sent me two replacement lights that arrived 2 days after our email / text conversation. I would have given them 5 stars, except, having two lights fail so soon after purchase was worrisome. This perhaps could be a fluke. If all the remaining lights continue to work after 12 months I will increase my rating to 5 stars.

Purchased the 24 pack of Sunvie LED landscape lights and installed the first 4 today with success! These lights are very well constructed and have a glass lens which will not cloud over due to sun exposure. The supplied connectors were easy to use and only take a couple of minutes per light to install. The color temperature is on the warmer side so they look more natural than cool white especially when illuminating architectural details along with shrubs and trees. In a 40 foot section of bushes planted along a fence, today we used the 4 lights spaced evenly and the result is fantastic! They lend instant elegance to the landscape and make the mundane look exotic. We did test all of the lights individually before doing this review because we wanted to be able to give an accurate appraisal. We did not rate their weatherproof ability since we are currently in a drought and who knows when we will get some rain so there is no way to assess their wet weather tolerance. All of the lights tested good and their color temperature and lumen output are consistent. If we find out that the 24 lights are not enough, we will definitely purchase another set without hesitation--they are that good.

I have over 50 of these throughout my several acres. When I got the first batch, I left the wiring, connectors and lights fully exposed to see if they would actually last. A year later, I hid the wires throughout my test perennial and evergreen garden and expanded to numerous other areas around my property. To date near FIVE YEARS later, I might have replaced ~5. Great value. Easy installation. My only minor complaint are the connectors. Wires from the lights are very short and thin and easily pull from the connectors.

easy to install. The electrical connectors are great.
