Works Big plus. No buzzing, buzzing or flickering.

WORKS GREAT. No hum, no buzz, no flicker and looks great on the ceiling! Very bright. Fast delivery. 10 out of 10 lights worked. Solla-406 LED Ceiling Lights (Pack of 4) or Solla-009 (Each) Specifications: 7.5" white LED flush ceiling mount lamps, 15W (equivalent to 90W), 950 lumens, 4000 degrees color, lifespan 50,000 hours (doubt it, but since LED lifespan is largely determined by heat, it's possible they could last even longer if used with less current through the dimmer) Total max power consumption: 8 x 15 = 120W/ 2 dimmers (I used 2 - 300W. Dimmers --- kill!). The 4000K color is a bit bluer than I expected but I'm sure the 3000K would be too yellow/red. I got 10 Bought these ceiling lights to use in 2 rooms. , due to size, light output and appearance. They hug the ceiling snugly and when on have the effect of recessed lighting. A room with 8 lamps uses two dimmer circuits, 4 lamps per Dimmer There are two of these lam in another room right now pen switched. They seem to be working very well. No buzzing, buzzing or flickering like the others. I've complained about other combinations of LEDs and dimmers I've read about. The chatter in the rating indicates a lot of problems with dimmers and LEDs. For the dimmer circuits I bought two dimmers which had many good reviews. Although I didn't need all the power, I tried to select dimmers with good ratings, they are rated for 300 watts for LED circuits. Most dimmers are only rated for 150W LEDs. Solla Mechanic: Some Solla reviews indicated that people had difficulty installing fixtures so that they were flush with the ceiling. I solved this problem. Solla lights snap into a retaining ring in a truss mount that attaches to a standard octagonal ceiling junction box through the corner screw holes. This robust short-stroke spring has a limited ceiling clearance. The octagon socket must be recessed or flush with the ceiling plaster. If the box sticks out of the plaster, the light fitting is not fitting snugly against the ceiling surface. Solla supplies two long 8-32 screws to connect the cross member to the junction box. I found I wanted the crossbar to be about 1/16 inch from the plaster. To easily adjust this, I inserted long #8-32 bolts through the cross member and then threaded an 8-32 nut onto each bolt. on the opposite side of the crossbar. This nut should be almost tight, but when fully tightened, the screw will not turn when inserted into the junction box. The distance of the mounting rod from the ceiling can then be adjusted. , the device snaps into place and presses firmly onto the plaster. Trick: Lubricate the ends of the spring with some grease (anything's better than nothing. Vaseline) so they slide easily in and out of the retaining ring. The Solla LEDs light up again and again, no buzzing, buzzing or flickering. -- Purchased from Home Depot so I can visually verify physical size and construction and if they don't fit in my small junction box they can be returned. Leviton Decora DLS06-02C (It's not clear what 02C stands for as it seems to be different for every store.) I had very little wall space but I managed to fit the dimmer and a wire nut into a standard depth metal panel to squeeze big effort 2.25 inches. Box. If you have more space, I strongly recommend a deeper box. The width is also narrow. I used 14 gauge 3 plus NM ground wire so I can connect two circuits to each LED, connecting my dimmer circuit of choice to each individual light. Much luck.
