I don't have any exterior outlets at my townhome/condo, so I was kind of at a loss when I started thinking about decorating with some lights outside.  I am so happy technology has caught up with my needs---love that these are running on sun power!  I put them on the hedges surrounding my patio--hedge is about 5'tall boxwood--and it took 4 to cover about 30' long of hedge, so I need a few more for the front.  Gives a nice sparkle I can see from inside, but does not light enough to actually light the space outside. Which is good in my case, as I'd hate to be an obnoxious neighbor.  Very happy I got these, hopefully they will hold out for a long time!
