Tools and Hardware Reviews of Rite Lite LPL623 5 LED Puck Light 3 Pack - Grey
Customer Review: Light is good, but ...
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought 6-pack version, which appears to have the same
light, so my review should apply to the 3-pack as well.
I needed lights to stick on the mirror of a cabinet
and some other places. So, I read and re-read the description
of this item: (* A great way to provide lighting ... * Light swivels 360° and pivots 30° ... * 5 bright white LEDs last up to 100,000 hrs. * 3 AAA batteries required ...)
But can the light stick to a mirror? How big it is?
How heavy it is? They mention shipping weight, but not
individual items weight and size. This is what makes
online shopping so frustrating - you cannot see or touch
the product and lazy vendors and lazy Amazon don't
bother to provide adequate description.
Luckily, the same light also sold in 3-pack package,
which has completely different description, which includes
"Includes stick and look tape or hard mount". But is it really the
same model? May be 3-pack does include
the tape, but 6-pack does not? How to tell?
OK, I bought the 6-pack - it does, in fact, has the sticky
pad on each item and it sticks on the mirror just fine.
The size is 3.5 inches in diameter and 2 inches thick.
Why they didn't say it in description? Don't they have
a measuring tape in China or they are just lazy?
For all that frustration I took one star off.
Most electronic devices allow batteries to be removed
with fingers without any tools. But these lights
have such tight plastic battery holders, that I had
to use a knife and significant force to remove the
batteries and now my fingers are covered with
bloody cuts and scratches. Another star off.
The lights are installed in closets and other
places, where their light is not visible from
outside. So, I keep forgetting to turn the lights off
and have to replace the batteries almost daily.
I use rechargeable batteries, which provide
about 10-12 hours of light.
I would like them to add a buzzer to each light,
which would make a short beep every few minutes
when the light is on. This would save me a lot
of trouble with battery removing/recharging.
Even is the light with a buzzer will cost more,
I would buy it.
Customer Review: Lights didn't last 100 hours, let alone 100,000
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these to go into my wifes curio cabinet. The intent was for the lights to stay on all the time. I put them in on Friday, by Saturday night they weren't working.Customer Review: Nice Light
Summary: 4 Stars
These lights are nice for what they are. Do note, however, that the lights definitely have a blue color, not white. We had purchased them to put in our glass front (and shelved) kitchen cabinets but they are not going to work because they make everything in the cabinet blue. We'll find another purpose for them I guess.Customer Review: Nice little lights!
Summary: 4 Stars
As the other reviews indicated, these lights are very bright for their size. I had the old dome touchlights, and they drained batteries very quickly while emitting very low light. The new LED lights are a vast improvement. I can actually find items in my small closet now. I have only one complaint. One of the lights does not turn off completely, so the batteries will probably drain faster than the others.Customer Review: Not super bright...
Summary: 3 Stars
I find these only OK. Not super bright and not very broad light. More of a focused type of light. I put these under a kitchen cabinet for cutting board lighting and wish they were not so narrow. They do the job, but...
