Review on πŸ’‘ Sunco Lighting 12 Pack 4 Inch Slim LED Downlight: Efficient Industrial Electrical Solution by Steve Brethorst

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Inexpensive, but for several reasons.

They are good value for a number of reasons. First, the wires are short, the ground wire is only 3 inches long, making the nut difficult to install. Second, only 1/8 to 1/4 inch of the wires are stripped, which is insufficient for a proper wire nut installation. You need to continue stripping the wires, which is very difficult as they are short to begin with. Thirdly, the wire jacket is made of a very hard plastic and does not come off easily, a few strands break off easily. Fourth, I've only installed half of them so far and two are flickering. Finally, the instructions don't mention that any type of cable holder should be installed in the cable knockouts, I'm not sure but I don't think it's legal.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Base required
