Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product to light up the bathroom

TL;DR: Great product, great quality of light, easy to install. I would definitely buy again. The only reason I don't give the product 5 stars is that during installation the ground wire (the yellow wire in the fourth picture on the product page, which was green on my product) came loose from the crimped ring terminal visible in the picture that serves to ground the device. This was an easy fix by crimping the new ring terminal onto the wire, unscrewing the old ring terminal from the base and screwing in the new solid one, but that was a step I didn't have to do. Despite all of this, this fixture worked very well and gave an even, bright light over the tub in our bathroom. It heats up with use, but no more than an incandescent bulb (if that much), while only consuming 9 watts of power. ) I replaced the existing lighted exhaust fan in the center of the room with a new non-lighted exhaust fan and installed this light above the bathroom. The existing fan/lighting circuit was separate from the fixture above the sink. I wanted the ventilation fan to keep running when the light above the bathroom was on (and vice versa) since the light was intended to illuminate the tub when bathing or showering if you want to release excess. To do this I had to running new 3ft 14/3 AWG Type NM-B wiring from the exhaust fan to the lighting location, I had to install an OLD JOB Type 3" ceiling junction box (Note: OLD JOB and NEW JOB type junction box nomenclature refers to whether the junction box is installed before the finishing surface (drywall, paneling, etc.) is applied.), ie a NEW WORK or if the J-Box is refurbished on site after the finishing has been applied surfaces.) and of course this light.. In addition to the OLD JOB cord and the junction box I also needed a drill with a 1/2 inch bit and a hole saw to cut the hole in the ceiling needed for installing the junction box becomes. required wire nuts, mounting screws and gasket. Be sure to turn off the circuit you are working on during installation to avoid electric shock.
