The claim
2-year warranty
What we found
Fine printThe warranty page gives two years only for Devos-branded items bought on or after April 1, 2026; the Amazon listing in November still prints a one-year warranty.

How each score was set
Usability 5.8 /10
From published features and owner comments · not a lab test.
- Build and specs5.0/10
- Three of five: weight 4 lb, 1,200 lumens with 3.75 h high and 80 h low, and IP56. No material is named and no packed size is printed.
- Warranty and returns6.0/10
- Two-year limited warranty for purchases from April 1, 2026; refund to the original payment with shipping not refunded, but no return window in days is printed. The Amazon listing still says one year.
- Ease of use5.0/10
- Three of five: set up 'in seconds' per the page (no figure), USB-C 20 W charging plus solar and battery-pack input, and accessories sold (stake, filters, solar panel). No manual link or temperature range on the 1200 page.
- Price and extras6.0/10
- Clear $149.99 with tripod, bag, 20 W adapter and cord included, so nothing extra is required; shipping cost is not printed and the colored filter kit is a $29.99 add-on.
- Support and owner reports7.0/10
- Phone, email and an online claim form with a named US address; owner write-ups after two years report no cracked housing, with a note on the head lock spring and one forum question on the charging port.
