This lights have a nice incandescent type glow and not a harsh blueish light you sometimes see with led solar lights. In fact, they look like lights you'd plug in. They are not super bright but very nice for ambiance. The solar part just makes them perfect. The warm glow of the lights is just ideal. Nice ambiance, easy to see whatever you need, but not super bright or overwhelming. Even your neighbors will like them! And the bulbs are plastic, so they don't break if dropped. Also, the bulbs never get hot, so no worry of burns or fire.
