Bright lights! in wall lamps

The light is bright, easy to install with the included double-sided tape. The hand wave activation works well. The kit comes with everything you need, but the instructions could be a bit clearer. There are two major design flaws in my setup that prevent me from giving five stars. 1) The sensor block must be the first in the chain, and the power supply can be connected from one end. This means that in my case where the outlet is in the middle of two sets (cabinets on either side of the long reach fan where the wall power is located) I had to flip one set to get the power plug and the get sensor. in the same relative position. The problem with this is that the units have a back and a front, so while the lamps illuminate the countertop well, they don't look the same under the cabinets. Since they have a backend, it shouldn't be too difficult for the manufacturer to install a switch so you can choose which end you want to turn on. Either that, or you want them to look the same on both sides of the centerline, so there's no front or back. 2) I found that the sensor didn't work with a rod sitting flush against a wall, I had to push it out the thickness of the unit, about half an inch. No problem if you install them in the middle or in front of the cabinets, but mine doesn't have a recessed bottom so I wanted the light to be as far back as possible. Nonetheless, I contacted the support team via email and they were very responsive, even replying on a Saturday and helping with another issue. Overall I'm happy with the product, it's good value for money and the build quality is better than expected. Sorry for the design mistakes.
