Great product/great seller

Love this light. Over the years I have bought and installed many cheap and cheaply made solar spotlights. None of them gave enough light, and none of them lasted more than a few months. After years of frustration and stumbling in my driveway in the dark, I finally decided to make things right by purchasing and installing the Alpha 1080x. Alpha 1080x works exactly as advertised. In fact, you can check out the manufacturer's video on YouTube and see a very accurate demonstration of the light in action. The light has three different modes (always on, dim and bright when motion is detected and off until motion is detected and then bright) and all of these modes worked perfectly. In addition, the solar panels are replaceable and the light bulbs are LED, so the light should last for many years. The recommended mounting height for this light was 13 or 14 feet, but after seeing how bright it was I decided to go a little higher and set mine at 17 feet. This extra height had very little effect on the light's ability to illuminate the driveway and had no effect on its ability to detect movement at all. Now for the seller: After just a week of use, a branch fell on my Alpha 1080x and broke the bracket I was trying to attach to the tree. This caused the mast and 1080x to fall onto my paved road from a height of 17 feet. Incredibly, the flashlight continues to work great, but the adjustable mounting socket broke on impact. I contacted the seller and he immediately sent me a replacement plug. Think. The light didn't break due to poor construction or seller error and I let them know but they still sent me a replacement free of charge. I'm not easily impressed, but the Alpha 1080x is an impressive product that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a powerful and reliable solar powered street light or spotlight. The only thing more impressive than the light is the customer service I received from the seller. I would buy another 1080x from them tomorrow if I needed one but the coverage is so good I only need one.
