Review on LEPOWER 28W Outdoor LED Security Light, 3000LM Dusk To Dawn Flood Lights With Photocell, 5500K White IP65 Waterproof 2 Adjustable Heads For Garage Backyard by Todd Stepp

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Changes to dimensions and functionality compared to 2018 model

I had purchased this light in 2018 and was happy with it because it fit well with a weatherproof junction box and was always on (no light sensor or timers etc.).I came to purchase some additional units and found two changes:1 - The base is now significantly larger (5 1/8") than a standard weatherproof round box (4 1/8") such as the Taymac Round Box Cover Kit listed on the product page. This means that it is not going to fit flush to the box cover and looks unsightly, as well as maybe not sealing up fully. Not a problem if you plan to attach this directly to the wall.2 - There is now a dusk to dawn sensor installed with a translucent cover provided if you wish to disable it. Others have reported that this cover is not all that effective.Having the sensor is less of an issue but I've returned these new units because they don't install flush onto a standard weatherproof cover. It's a shame they had to make the base larger, as I am very happy with the 2018 unit otherwise. Worth noting that both the 2018 and 2019 models share the same model number so some reviews may be referring to different physical units.

I love the brightness, some neighbors don''t 😐. Purchased 7 of them to brighten all sides of the house and feel safer. Definitely does the job.
