Review on TORCHSTAR Recessed Junction Downlight Certified Industrial Electrical by Carrie Williams

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Gives a lot of light, but has serious disadvantages

Good qualities: - They give a lot of light - No problems with the installation gap - They are inexpensive, but. The Bad: - The spring clips don't hold the lantern flush with 1/2" thick drywall. Gaskets were needed for extra spring tension. The foam gasket is useless; I removed it and applied a small coat of paintable sealer around the outer perimeter to to seal the canopy installed eight of these on 11/2019 and three of them died within two weeks in October 2020. They start to flicker, go on and off while the other lights in the circuit are still on and then go out I would gladly pay more for longer lasting bulbs.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
