Floodlights are powerful security lights designed to illuminate a large area. LEPOWER Security Lights are among the best options for residential use, with a three-headed design that delivers an impressive 3,500 lumens — that's really bright!

These hard-wired light fixtures include a built-in motion detector that can sense movement up to 72 feet away with a 180-degree detection angle. When triggered, they'll turn on from 10 seconds to 10 minutes, depending on the settings you choose.

The LECLSTAR Solar Lights stand out among solar-powered security lights thanks to their fast charging time and 268 bright LED bulbs, which deliver 1,800 lumens of brightness over a wide angle of illumination. These lights fully charge in four to six hours of direct sunlight, and detect motion up to 26 feet away within a 120-degree field of view.

Choose from three operational settings. The fixtures can be installed anywhere because they aren't hard-wired to your electrical system.

If there's a specific area of your yard you need to illuminate, simply aim the two flexible heads of the JJC LED Security Lights where they're needed.

These security lights feature an adjustable motion detector you can set with a range between 20 and 65 feet. When the light is triggered, it stays on between five seconds and five minutes, depending on the settings selected. It also offers a dusk-to-dawn mode that automatically shuts the light off during the day.

It also has a 4 GB local storage option that can save up to 14 days worth of recordings — ideal if you go on vacation. Plus, if you ever see someone snooping around, the light has a built-in siren to scare them off.
