This product has worked great for about two months

This product has worked great for about two months. First the daylight faded and stopped working. I have contacted the company and no response. Now the night part of the light doesn't work anymore. The original purchase price was great, but not when you have to replace the lamp within a few months. The product says 1 year warranty but it looks like the company is not honoring it.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Some cons

You get what you pay for

These lights provide very good lighting and have 2 settings to keep your aquarium looking beautiful. The mounts are very cheap though, they slide out when you lift or move the light, they don't line up on my tank. When I bought 2 of these 72 inch 100 gallons, one of them started shorting out after less than 1 month of use. Now I can sit in my aquarium with no light for 2 weeks while waiting for my replacement to arrive. You can spend $20-$50 more on Revain and get a much better product.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Compatibility

I will not order again

For a really unbeatable price I have noticed significant plant growth in my tank since I switched to this light. **Update** Purchased and received on January 30, 2018. Since March 13, 2018, the light has decreased significantly, is much dimmer than it was originally, and flickers regularly. To date it has completely shut down maybe 3 times. Too bad it's only been in use for a month and a half. Update #2 The light is running at about 25% and has been flashing on and off intermittently since…

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Not the best

The cord/plug is bad, the handles are loose BUT the light is good.

Bought, will buy more but here's the problem I have with it: The negative reviews are true when they say the cable doesn't work and you have to adjust it by plugging the connector halfway in or move out, or bend the cable like I do with a Chinese cell phone charger. So beware. I wish this seller would send me a new cable since I paid full price. The grips fall right out of the sockets - they have no gap - no safety stop. So if you move the handles to adjust the length - or even move the light…

Pros
  • Durability
Cons
  • Small things

Great light for the price!

This lamp is amazing, especially for the price. The brightness is just enough to grow my plants but not so bright that I have to buy a light stand to set them up. The light is mostly plastic, except for the adjustable columns, and the finish is all black, which I think looks really nice. The light has two options: a night switch for blue LEDs and a regular LED switch with both white and blue LEDs on at the same time. The light itself is just over 4 inches wide, which is a lot wider than my…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Updates

Design flaw

I wrote about the merits of this flashlight in a previous review, but only after I found a way to temporarily eliminate an apparent short in the power supply. I thought this was a permanent fix, but eventually the problem returned, which manifested itself in the light turning on or off simply by clicking the frame. Instead of looking for a replacement, I informed NICREW of the condition of the lights and that I was able to remedy the situation temporarily, and then they requested that I provide

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Great price for great lights and great customer service!

I wanted to add a review on the timer since it was bundled on this product page: I've been using $5 timers with $6 dimmers for a while (cheapest I could find ). I then moved on to the current American single ramp timers which are twice the price and have only one on period. So I was very happy to know that NICREW released some new timers at half the price of the ones I usually use. Sunset". I programmed everything at 4pm to have the light on from 12pm to 5pm (L2) at 25%. But when I saved my…
