Solar-Powered Outdoor Lighting

Anybody use solar outdoor lighting?
Anybody have a good source?
I can get the cheapies at Wal*Mart, the ones that just light walkways, I think they are about $20 for four, and I found places online where the lighting is a lot more expensive.
I don't want to waste money on junk, nor do I want to pay too much.
I could use a few of the walkway lights, and a half dozen or so spotlights, and at least two that I could mount on the end of a piece of 2" conduit that sticks up out of my brick wall extensions.

Look in the Cabela's catalog. They have a good setup with a decent size solar panel and spot lights for $70.
I'm ordering that one sometime soon.
try www.basspro.com
The following were the results;
Not much light
Short battery life
Light failure
Internal contacts corroded
A low voltage hard wired system is the way to go.
