Outdoor hosting doesn’t have to end when the sun goes down. If you’re searching for an illuminating floodlight to keep the party going well into the night, we found a tried-and-true model that’s fit for the job.
Our PEOPLE Testers recently put 16 outdoor lights through seven weeks of real-world testing, and they crowned the Leonlite LED Motion Sensor Floodlight as the best overall model. The light earned an average 4.96 rating for its ease of setup, design, brightness, durability, and overall value — and right now, you can score it on sale.
The hardwired motion sensor light has two adjustable heads that illuminate around 30 feet of space in a warm yellow hue. Our testers praised the fact that each head rotates 360 degrees, allowing users to angle the light anywhere with a yard or driveway, and they appreciated that it only took 15 minutes to install from start to finish.

The outdoor light has three settings — motion detection, dusk to dawn, and manual — to best fit your home’s needs, and PEOPLE testers noted that the motion sensor had no problem detecting cars, people, and large animals. They also said that the outdoor light is bright without being overwhelming, making it just the right level of brightness to illuminate spaces like backyards, patios, front porches, and more.
The dusk-to-dawn setting is ideal for those who would like their floodlight to turn on and off automatically during the morning and evening as the sun rises and sets, whereas the manual setting works like a normal lamp and isn’t triggered by motion.

Our shopping editors did note the floodlight’s package says it’s not fully waterproof, so users may want to mount it in covered locations to protect it from direct rain. Even so, its customizable features, ease of use, and understated look still allowed it to earn the top honor in their ranking.
