 Mr. Beams MB 371 Battery Powered Motion Sensing LED Remote Outdoor Security Spotlight Jul 25, 2011
By Suze Morgan
I think it is great, I now can see my dog out in the backyard in one of the areas where my electric motion lights don't work. I think I'll need to buy 1 or 2 more. Don't know how long the batteries will last especially during Wisconsin winters, but I will find out in the future.

A great security light Dec 11, 2011
By Jay T
I bought 4 of these to light dark areas in the back of my house. They worked so good that I bought 6 more for the sides and front of the house. I have had no problem with any of the lights. Set the two switches inside for brightness and timer. I use bright and the short duration time. The light will stay on if someone is moving around, even on the short time setting. The remote works well too and you can set all the lights to use one remote. I mounted some on the house and put some on the provided stake in the ground. A great light for the money. The coverage and brightness is good but don't compare it to a 300 Watt floodlight. It is more suited to lighting targeted areas rather than lighting your entire backyard to play baseball. Also, make sure you test the light in dark conditions. The light will not operate unless it is in really dark conditions.

Timer Aug 22, 2011
By Thomas King
The amount of on time for this unit should be changed. Currently it is 20 seconds or 5 minutes. 5 minutes is to long 30 seconds a bit on the short side. Those are the only two options. The light is bright enough, and all other features are fine. It was exposed to many rain storms, and no issue with any water inside.

 Mr. Beams MB 371 Sep 20, 2011
By M. B.
After reading the very positive reviews, I bought Mr. Beams. I really needed a battery operated motion sensing security light and thought this would be perfect. The problem was nothing worked as advertised and the unit I received was obviously defective. I hate to return anything; I'm one of those people that want the product to work right out of the box with no issues. Although Amazon's return policy is pretty easy, you do have to make a trip to the post office. If you take a chance on Mr. Beams, I recommend you save the packaging.
Update: After doing some extensive research, I found myself being drawn back to this light because it really fit my needs. I have an area behind my house that very much needs a motion/light sensor and unfortunately there's no wiring for lighting. I either solve it with a battery operated solution or pay the expense of wiring a light fixture there. One of the things I learned during my research was the size of the batteries that operates the light generally equates to the amount of lighting it puts out. This particular security light takes three "D" cell batteries while most of the others in its class generally take double A's. Well, I decided to try it again hoping I wouldn't get stung twice, but this time I bought the Dorcy instead. Mr. Beams and Dorcy are identical with some very minor exceptions. I held my breath when it arrived and I'm pleased to announce that it works as advertised. The light is pretty powerful after all and the pictures they show on the packaging aren't exaggerations. The sensor picked my motion up at a pretty good distance and I was very happy about that. Although very much alike, make sure you read the differences between the Dorcy and Mr. Beams; the Dorcy has no options for you to select, while Mr. Beams does. One of the options I miss is the Dorcy doesn't let you select the amount of time it stays on after sensing motion. It's hardwired to turn off at about 1 minute (it says 30 seconds in the instructions but my unit is about a minute, which I like.)
The Dorcy/Mr. Beams works for my needs and turns out to be a nice little product if you need a battery operated security light. Keep in mind that the light is generated by LED, so don't expect too much. But the light it does put out is surprisingly pretty darn good once it gets dark. I'm glad I can now recommend this product and I think you will be happy too (IF you get one that works the first time around.)

 Stopped working correctly after 6 months May 16, 2012
By Hy
I bought two of these for the backyard so our dog has some light at night when he goes out. The light is decently bright, I would say the manufacturer's picture of the dog is pretty accurate. Battery life is good, I've only had to change the batteries once in 6 months and it could have been a little longer wait. Unfortunately, after 6 months one of the lights just won't stay turned off. After 30 seconds of no movement, it turns off for 1 second and immediately turns back on again and repeats this forever. Nothing has changed in the area to make it keep turning back on. To solve this problem and not waste battery life I have to shine a flashlight at the motion sensor so it 'thinks' it's daytime and won't turn back on. This is incredibly troublesome and annoying, it's lucky the light is positioned where I can easily shine a flashlight to it, but I shouldn't have to. Not sure if I would recommend or buy this product again after this malfunction, the other light is still working fine which is why I gave the product 3 stars.
