The solar flag pole lights on Amazon have dropped under $30/per and they put out plenty of light.

I am using the Sportsman light from Spot-On Outdoors. Has a dual lighting mode and is really bright when it goes to 100%.

I build my own, but for what is mass produced that "Outfitter" light looks really nice. I prefer a full power dusk to dawn but there isn't much commercially made due to the panel and battery size needed. I would avoid any generic motion light that goes from darkness to light as I have seen many big hogs stay clear of that type.

You are correct, 30%-100% is as close as we could get and make sure the light would still run all night. With the light already on at 30% before motion is detected it doesn't seem to bother the Hogs as much. Especially since they stay condition to it coming on and powering up on motion every night. The Sportsman is little in size but don't let that fool you it will light up some serious area. I'm at the hunters Extravaganza show in Houston but when I get back to the hotel I will post a pretty sweet picture I took the other day.

I've had one of these running for coming on 3 years and I'll tell you its a dang good light. Also something to be said for the light it produces as well. Although they are not made with two light heads anymore.

For the budget minded, just check out Harbor Freight for solar porch lights. I have half a dozen of them out all the time, and they do a good job for me. I've had a few go out after a few years, but for about 25 bucks each they are easy and quick to replace. I mount them to all kinds of stuff, including trees with just 4 screws required and takes only a couple minutes. I have shot a lot of hogs under these lights.
