Review on 🔆 TALOYA LED Flush Mount Ceiling Light 5000k 12 Inch Round Black 24w=240w(Equivalent) Simple Lamp for Bedroom Hallway Kitchen Gallery Low Ceilings Areas, ETL Listed – Enhanced SEO by Sonny Nevers

I bought this 8.9 inch fixture after ordering and installing the larger 12 inch version a week ago. I was so impressed by the larger model that I wanted to try this one to replace a CFL fixture in a hallway.Each of the two installations posed their unique mounting problems due to the age (old) and size (small) of the junction boxes. However these fixtures are so light, small and flexible (in mounting options) that the installation went smoothly.I timed this one out and the installation time from start to finish was a mere 16 minutes. That included getting out the ladder, removing the old fixture, installing the new, and putting away the tools. Super easy and smooth.The only thing different with this smaller model is that it does not have the 3-position color temperature setting of its bigger brother. That was not a big deal for me since I used the middle (daylight) setting on the bigger one and that is the fixed setting on this one.Since there are still some CFL fixtures on the same circuit for this hallway, I can immediately see the difference between them and this fixture. While consuming less energy this fixture comes on faster, gives off more light, and is a more pleasant daylight color rather than the warm color of the CFL.It's interesting how I never really noticed the slight delay in power-on time for the CFL before. Now I flick the switch and this LED fixture lights up instantly while the CFL fixtures turn on a short period later. I didn't time it but it is probably less than a second but yet so noticeable compared to an instant on LED.I am very impressed by these Tayola fixtures and only wish all my fixtures were just like it. The only remaining factor will be the test of time. Since the LEDs themselves cannot be replaced (built into the fixture), they need to last a very long time. The hope is that they last at least 10 years before needing to replace the entire fixture. If any of them do fail, I will report back and update the review.
