 Water leaked in when used in pond. July 5, 2007
Stephanie C. Lynch (NY United States)
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I just built a pond and wanted to add something a little special for night time parties. Worked great for about two nights then while taking it out of the pond for the day to charge up I noticed about a cup and a half of water on the bottom of the globe. The bottom was tight but water somehow leaked through to the inside. I opened it up and the batteries where all soaked rusted. I took those out of the globe and drained the water. I let sit for about 3 days to dry out and then I put it back in the sun to charge. That night it didn't work or even turn on. If I didn't take the water out of the globe, the batteries would have leaked and destroyed the globe anyway. I give it two stars for decent shipping for the store. The globe itself gets 0.
 Unbelievably bright for a solar LED May 24, 2007

We have a small pond and I wanted something to brighten it with light at night without having to hook anything up. The solar globe light is fairly large, not basketball size, but definitely softball. The construction seems solid and so I was confident in place the item in the water. The solar panel is situated inside the plastic shell so is invisible (how the UV passes through the plastic is a mystery to me) and The base where the nicad batteries are held is at the bottom protected by a rubber gasket. During the day the globe deceptively looks like a child's ball accidentally discarded into the water but of course, nightime is when the fun begins...
This item is incredibly bright - much more so than standard garden solar lights and the transition between all the colors of the rainbow is smooth and looks awesome. Interestingly though the light doesn't cast much ambience so you have a kind of floating 'dot' rather than an omni light reflecting on the water (as shown in the picture). The light lasts all night too.
All in all a great buy especially given the price. Recommended.
Fabulous Solar Powered Light Globe May 14, 2007
D. Traverso (Tyler, TX)
The Solar Powered Floating Light Globe is a great product. As long as you place it in the full sun, it will give hours of ever-changing vibrant color during the night. It's placed on the deck so it's visible when using the spa and it even works while floating in the spa. Can also be used indoors in a relatively dark room (while watching TV for instance) adding much ambiance. The key to a good light show is full sun; if it is overcast, it won't absorb enough energy to power the changing colors for very long.
Works Great! May 13, 2007

I gave this solar globe as a gift and she put it out by the pool it was brighter than any of the other lights out there. However on the second night it was not as bright so we learned it has to be in direct sunlight for fullest benifits. Which is logical. Overall I am very pleased with the globe.
