I cannot praise these lights enough. I'm not a photographer, but in the kitchen everything is lit and you can see what you're doing. You can also see places you missed or missed. It brings out the colors of everything like daylight. It also appears to be a lot brighter. But I think it has to do with the spectrum and the proximity to daylight. I gave some to my friend whose chickens have gone into winter. He had lighting in the barn, switched to this lighting, after 72 hours he got eggs again. Note: Depending on the breed of chicken, egg production takes 29 to 36 hours. Styling without electricity.
