Okay, so I've had these dummy alarm lights for about 3 months now, and here's the real tea ☕

First off - they WORK. Like seriously, that little blue blink at night makes my old Honda look like it's got some fancy security system. Thieves in my area mostly target easy marks, and this definitely makes my car look less appealing.

The solar charging is legit! I was skeptical but even after weeks of cloudy weather, these babies keep blinking every night. Though pro tip: wipe the solar panel occasionally - mine got dusty and stopped working until I cleaned it.

Installation? Meh. The included adhesive is trash. I used some heavy-duty velcro strips instead so I can remove them when washing my car. They've survived car washes and everything!

Would they stop a pro thief? Probably not. But for $10? Totally worth it for the peace of mind. My neighbor actually asked me what alarm system I installed because the light looks so convincing 😂

Wishlist for next version: Faster blinking pattern (like real Viper alarms) and maybe a magnetic mount option?
