Review on ✨ Effortless Installation Guide for Sunco Lighting Recessed Downlights by Devin Maselli

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works great with my smart dimmer unlike the previous leds I used

. . They don't flicker at all at all dimming levels. Getting up to $7.50 a piece is also a decent price that's on the cheaper end of the price spectrum I've seen buying recessed LEDs. The brightness corresponds to the declared equivalent of 75 watts. The advertised warm color 2700k is also accurate in my opinion. They were just as easy to install as most other LED downlights I've used in the past. The only thing to note is that these lights require that the dimmer is not set too low to turn on. Let's say my dimmer can go from 0 to 100, with 0 being the darkest and 100 being the brightest. I wired 4 of these LEDs in parallel and the dimmer I use needs to be at least 50 before a light comes on. Other LEDs I've used with the same dimmer start to emit light when the dimmer is only around 10. It doesn't really matter to me because I can adjust the range of my smart dimmer, ie set the range from 50 to 100 (there are dumb dimmers that also let you set the dimming range). The only VERY SMALL setbacks from this behavior are: 1) I have slightly less fine-grained brightness control, and 2) they can use a LITTLE bit more power than other LEDs that I can use to reduce brightness. Overall I am very happy with these LEDs. I wasn't expecting much considering they are cheaper than most others I've seen, but I'm not disappointed at all. The only remaining question is durability, but even the cheapest LED bulbs I've used haven't gone bad yet, but I'll go back and upgrade if they die on me prematurely.

Pros
  • . Body and Fairing Kits
Cons
  • . Cable is shorter than other
