Review on πŸ’‘ TORCHSTAR Recessed Lighting Junction Downlight: Efficient and Versatile Illumination Solution by Marisa Sath

Revainrating 5 out of 5

good lights The color temperature needs to be edited.

First bought 3000k Light wasn't bright enough and was pink Not yellowish pink. That didn't work for me. I put them in an office next to a showroom with 4500 lights and it was too different. I sent them back and ordered 5000k. I like these better, they're nice and bright, but now they're almost too "blue". They strain my eyes a bit when working, even when they are heavily darkened. I really wish they offered a light color in between these two, 4000k would be perfect for my needs. I really like the lights themselves, they are easy to install, well built and work well with a flicker free dimmer. I ordered a photo quality leaf filter to tone down the 5000k to around 4000k.1/4 CTO. hope this works UPDATE: I got a 1/4 CTO filter sheet, cut out the circles and placed them under the edge of the lights. This made them nice and soft, the light now has a color temperature of over 4000k. They're still pretty and vibrant, but softer on the eyes without being too yellow or pink. I upgraded the star level from 3 to 4 but still kept the star because I had to deal with the problem of ordering and working with the film. Although I like the light very much. I just needed a very specific color temperature.
