Revainrating 5 out of 5

VERY DURABLE, VERY STABLE and VERY RELIABLE!

I live in a two bedroom apartment in an area that has occasional power outages several times a month. I was tired of catching my flashlight in the dark so I bought these and I love them so much! Before you buy them, it is important to know that wherever you decide to install them, you must have electricity at this level. Location. What worked best for me was to install it in the hallway next to the smoke alarm because the smoke alarm is wired to 120. The first thing I did was disconnect those wires in the breaker box. I then took the wires that power the smoke alarm, removed the nuts and used the 16 gauge braided wire I had lying around, removed a little shielding, then added my wire to the nuts and screwed them back on. so I have a new pair of cables hanging from the ceiling. I also bought a wire duct to hide the wire which makes the installation more aesthetic. I routed the cable through the ceiling to the wall where I installed the unit. You must connect the internal battery to the motherboard as it does not come connected as this would wear out the battery unnecessarily. But it's obvious where it plugs in, as its port is literally a few millimeters from the only empty port it plugs into. ) to these wires I added from the ceiling then I plugged everything back in and flipped the switch and saw a red light come on telling me everything was working. The little red LED on this unit is lit all the time when it has power (ie when everything is working properly). Now that my electricity is out these lights will come on IMMEDIATELY and I can move around the apartment. The brightness of the lights isn't overwhelming, but they light up almost the entire apartment, and hey. If the power goes out, take what you can get and in that situation they provide plenty of light. I am very happy with this purchase. this is a find. I even installed the second block in a neighbor's apartment who has young children and they really like it! The girls scream at night when the electricity goes out. no longer! LAUGH OUT LOUD
