Description of 💡 TORCHSTAR E-Star Series 3-Inch Gimbal LED Recessed Lights Including Junction Box

💡Great Durability: The light fixture and j-box are both IC rated, letting it be able to be in contact with combustible materials. The airtight structure effectively prevents heated airflow diffusion. The metal light body makes it durable and able to be used in damp locations. 💡Energy Efficiency: With the same brightness as a 50W incandescent lamp, this 7W LED downlight reduces your energy usage and electricity bills while still being suitable with AC120V input voltage. 💡Smooth Dimming: This light is compatible with the majority of LED dimmers on the market and can smoothly dim from 10% to 100%, allowing it to fit a wide range of lighting applications such as in kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms. 💡3-in-1 Design: The 3-in-1 design of this recessed light lets you replace the existing light bulbs, recessed trims and housing cans which allows for easier installation and saves you money on labor costs. This gimbal LED recessed light is not compatible with TORCHSTAR New Construction Mounting Plate. The CRI90+ highlights all your decorations with vivid and natural lighting. 💡Quality Assurance: This ETL and Energy Star certified product, showing that it is not only safe to operate, but also that it has excellent performance. It also comes with a 5-year warranty included for your rights and benefits as a customer.

Great lighting easy to install

I ordered 3 of these 3" 2700k LED pendant lights and wow! easy to install I just hooked them up to our existing outdoor lights (front door and garage torches) and they all worked great. I just took a 3" drill bit and drilled into the reveal. The connections in the J-box are foolproof and conform to building codes for existing installations. I'm still waiting for a reply from them, as I'm missing 1 light to complete my project and hopefully I can arrange a light purchase rather than getting the…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Cord shorter than others

Excellent Halogen Bulb Replacement

After much research, I decided on these bulbs based on customer reviews and specifications. the box is impressive. The build quality is excellent. They are all metal which is nice. The installation was as I expected after reading the reviews, but with one correction. The headlights aren't hard to get clips through the hole. I waited to buy a hole saw until I had it in my hands. Buy a 3 1/4 hole saw and you'll be fine. As stated in other reviews, junction boxes are a whole different story. Once…

**Post Install Update**

Like other Torchstar products I have purchased they are well built and appear to produce the advertised lumens. I have yet to install them but after hooking them up to an extension cord to test placement I'm happy with the light output. They are bright so I will install a dimmer. I fear for durability because they get installed the day before and if they fail I don't want to get stuck in a 3.5" hole so I'll be buying a few extra ones to have on hand. product range and seem to be on par with big

Pros
  • Recessed Lighting
Cons
  • High Price

Excellent build quality with one critical design flaw

Until I had the chance to install these headlights (and I won't - read on). The build quality is very good; This is not a problem. Other recessed lights have a separate glass and lamp assembly. You install the glass in the drywall and then insert the light into the glass. If the light burns out, pull out the light and replace it. These blocks have light and can be in one contiguous block. You install them by pushing back two springs, inserting the jar through a hole in the drywall, and…

  • Electrical
