Work Well (Most of the Time)
I believe these only turn on at night, which is somewhat helpful except I would like it to appear like my vehicle is secured at all times of the time. They seem to work 99% of the time at night but sometimes they don't turn on. I haven't noticed a pattern as to why they are on sometimes and not on at other times.

Be aware of the bad quality
It only lasted about 2 weeks and began to stop working even when fully charged. The price should be way less. It was easy to use and place in the spot I wanted and it looks great when the light blinks. It's brighter than. My otginal car security light but due to the low life span of this device it's not worth getting.

Keep the thieves guessing.
Been using the first one for a couple months now. Recently bought a second one. These have a small solar charging panel on the top side along with a usb port on the side where the switch is. Charge it first with your usb cord for 24 hrs then disconnect cord and remove sticky backing and place this blinking light inside your vehicle someplace that will allow the blinking red light to be seen from a front seat outside car window. These blink once every 5 seconds and last 20-25 days before needing recharged. Or stick it where the small solar panel can get direct sunlight for a couple hours a day. I placed mine on the back side of my rear view mirror. It gets enough sunlight to keep it charged for... a really long time. I do turn it off when I'm driving at night as it's distracting. Otherwise it's all good. That's why I bought a second one for 2nd vehicle.

Fragile but effective
I purchase these like disposable goods as they are fragile and tend to die or come apart after about 6 months to a year. That being said, they seem to be effective as a first line of defense against the roaming car prowlers in my blue city where drug dependency and the associated crime on other people's property are now considered a right. I have watched drug addicts veer away from my blinking car like wildlife from pepper spray. Car theft in itself doesn't worry me, as I have several ways in place to make my car immobile, but I use these as a way to avoid break in attempts in the first place. I consider this a cheap, added layer to avoid costly insurance deductibles. It also seems to motivate other drivers to keep their shopping carts, kids and cars from getting too close to my paint.

Concept is great but DON'T use sticker
The concept is great No problems with its functionality for the purpose of it to look like an alarm light. However, every description shows you the example of affixing it someplace in your car even someplace up high like by your mirror as ideal placement. However, for it to recharge during the day the batteries within the unit have to be exposed to the sun Now just looking the description pics you're like okay if I put this up with a sticker will that placement upside down provide access for the Sun to charge the battery cells? Tried it and in doing so it seemed to work fine first couple of days but after two bright sunny days one night I realized it wasn't blinking. I said okay it's not getting charged Let me go ahead and use my own USB charger (they don't provide one) to charge it... but I can't get it down! They tell you it's an option you might need to use the charger on a rainy day (that wasn't the case here) but they don't tell you that you may not be able to get it off! I had to use a knife to pull it and finally to pry it off and it left a residue on my window shield that I'm hoping Goo-be-gone will be able to help me remove. Fortunately, I did not use the sticker in my other vehicles. I just place them all in a noticeable place on their dashboards at night and leave in place to charge during the day if they're not being driven. When driving i just put it someplace where it won't slide around while driving.

Surprisingly, It Still Works After A Good Trial Period!
Okay, I was skeptical at first! After reading several reviews that this was a POS, I still said what the heck...at this price if it stopped one perp from messing with my beloved truck, it was work hundreds (even thousands) to me! I put it on my dash in a spot that it appeared to be wired into an alarm system and waited to see if it works. It has been faithfully blinking for a long time and even shows up on videos from my security camera system. Has it stopped a punk from trying a break-in, I don't know but what the heck, it gives me some sense of security since my high-priced alarm system went south on me? Was worth the six bucks to me!

Does not work in day light unless you use tape!!!
Ok, so it is my fault that I didn't read full description. This item is meant for use only in the dark!!! There is a light sensor that disables the blinking light if it detects enough light. Depending on your perspective, this is a great feature or a defect. At first, I thought I had a defective battery that wasn't holding a charge because it will initially blink a few times. They even know it is an issue since they indicate covering the other end with tape if you want the light to be on in the day light (by the way, this works). Additionally, the item is all scratched on the surface of the solar panel (which is how it arrived). The adhesive on the back is fake. It is suppose to look like 3M, but it is M 3. Overall, hard pass.
