Don't buy for my opinion

I purchased two of these units. Both are very dim. The light output is closer to 5-watt then 50-watts. I have them mounted directly over entrance doors and they barely provide enough light to see the lock on the door. I will have to change these out for something that provides more light. I purchased three 30-watt units from another manufacturer and they are 10-times brighter then these 50-watts.I contacted Loftek and told them they were dim. They did not reply to my first response, but on my…

Pros
  • Large onboard capacity for impressive lighting coverage
Cons
  • May not be compatible with all existing infrastructures

Very bright but very broad beam

I like this light because I use it under my pond fountain pump and need a very broad light beam. Because of this,the light is not for every use. The quality is average for this type of light but is watertight so far. I've been using it for 3 months now without any problems but wonder if it will last long

Pros
  • Comes with a user manual for easy setup and operation
Cons
  • May not have a warranty or guaranteed quality assurance

7 years and still working!

Update: 7 years and these lights are still working great!Ive had this light for two years now. It works very well. Colors are vivid and easily changed, there are many combinations. Currently I've got them on timers for the halloween season. They have been rained on and snowed on with no problems at all. They slso put in a great dance party light show, inside, for my 4 year old. The picture is with three lights on the front of my house. 1 does well, but three is very good, very bright purple…

Pros
  • Provides adequate lighting for improved visibility and safety
Cons
  • May not have replaceable parts if any damage occurs

Seems to be living up to expectations

Although my intentions are to use this as a lighting setup for an Indie feature movie (digital gels!) I ordered it ahead of time to use for throwing light on my house during Christmas. And while it didn't exactly light up the night, it did provide a nice glow in all the different colors. I cannot attest to its durability vis a vis the electronics, but it is physically well made and should hold up in that respect.

Pros
  • Weather-resistant design ensures safe and consistent operation in varying conditions
Cons
  • May be too bright for indoor use

It works but. for my opinion

The white light from it is actually based on different colored different LEDs.Therefore, the white light is not very bright - for example a 50 watt white light LED lamp would be a whole lot brighter than this. In fact, my 30 watt LED lamp of similar design, was much brighter than this.Another problem with all such lights is - they don't provide the wire, suitable for electrical code in USA. They just provide a plug in this case - which is not the best option for an outdoor light.

Pros
  • Sturdy and rugged construction ensures durability and longevity
Cons
  • May cause power surges in older electrical systems

Great accent lights.

I bought two of these and have been using them for a while now. I use them as accent lights on palms near our pool. Love them! Especially like the rolling light pattern that is one of the options. Exactly what we were hoping for. Installation of the actual lights was very simple "plug and play." Installing the underground power to the desire location was labor intensive, but I needed the exercise!The only improvement suggestion would be in location of the remote control sensor. To…

Pros
  • Can also function as decorative lighting for outdoor events or gatherings
Cons
  • May have a bulky size that may be difficult to install in tight spaces

Glad I bought it good for me

User friendly and provided good "wash" for the space I wanted to cover with light. I do wish the fade/transition between colors could be slowed and that there was a higher wattage available to provide bolder light.

Pros
  • Compact size allows for easy storage and transport
Cons
  • May cause visual discomfort and eye strain for those who come into contact with the light

Love these lights best in my review

This was my 4th one to put up outside. They do have plugs which some people may not like but I guess they could be hardwired if someone really wanted to do this. Only drawback is remote does not have much range and have to get pretty close to change colors. You can put them on timers but honestly, it is just easier to leave them on day and night. Many different color options. Will go for orange or purple this Halloween.

Pros
  • Wide beam angle for broad and even coverage
Cons
  • May not be as energy-efficient compared to other LED lighting products

Nice colors. Not bright at all.

Lights changed colors with the remote as advertised but colors other than white are much dimmer. I believe the 50w ratting is based on when all the LEDs are on to produce white light. Used these lights 12' from our house and red or blue were barely visible compared to the light coming from the streetlights. Sure they are bright if you look right into it, but so is a laser pointer but it won't light a room! Also, the unit seems oversized for the light it produces. Halogen lights are brighter and

Pros
  • Multicolored lighting options add a fun twist to outdoor lighting
Cons
  • May have a limited remote control distance

I am *so* pleased with these lights. I bought 2 of them for a 4th of July event and they were incredible. The fact they're LED is great, because if you're running them off a generator, they consume almost no power at all! Before purchasing them, I thought perhaps they'd come with different colored screens. When they arrived I was super excited to see that they actually just have colored options within the bulbs so no screens necessary! Using the remote, you can change how bright the lights are,

Pros
  • Can be used indoors or outdoors for added versatility
Cons
  • May not be suitable for commercial or industrial outdoor lighting systems
