Be sure to pre-drill!

Worked great. My husband installed ten of these to update the lighting in our house. He quickly learned to pre-drill existing cans before attempting to install brackets. The problem had nothing to do with these items. You were fine. The sheet metal in the light box was very thin and buckled dangerously when he tried to install the mounting screws.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Some cons

Exactly what I was hoping for

The perfect kit for refinishing a recessed box light. I hired an electrician to replace two of my lightbulbs with two awesome hidden brackets. He was able to make both lanterns in about thirty minutes and had no problems. White trim is included, I chose the bronze ones (also bought from Revain) but they can be painted any color you want. Very happy with the result and highly recommended.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • I don't like anything about it, everything is fine

I absolutely love the product BUT

The product itself is excellent. I achieved my goal by replacing the 2 recessed lights above my island with 2 pendant lights. However, it wasn't easy to install. I recommend watching the tutorial on Utube, but I couldn't drill a hole in the canister either as the instructions looked very simple. I had to get additional tools like titanium drill bits and a hole punch. This whole process took several hours. Finally installed, looks great and exactly what I wanted.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Difficult but painfully good for lamps and ceiling fans

Had to pre-drill screws to work. The design assumes the jars were installed perfectly aligned with the plasterboard ceiling, as they should be, "but" the reality isn't. I had to take longer screws and cut them longer to attach the mounting bar to the adjustable bracket. Still a bit painful but I made it. there were not enough different length screws to attach the mounting bar to secure the fairing

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • 0

Necessary and valuable.

I bought two packs to make pendant lights. The instructions just say oh use those self tapping screws. I don't know what's in your lamps, but mine was tin and there's no way you can knock on it yourself. I had to drill and drill everything. After that everything was smooth. Fast and easy. The second one took me 15 minutes, necessary so I'd say buy it because you need it, but I'm happy with the end result too. It also had a white bezel, which was nice.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Good kit, needs a bit of work

Honestly, the price can't be beat. There's even a video on YouTube the company made to help with the installation. It has 4 starts, so be sure to check that the metal plate your mount attaches to matches the inside diameter of the kit's plastic cover. It's a "must have" because it's a standard size. However, after painting the cap and plugging in the light, I found that I had to sand the plastic cap a bit to get the gap to fit. The cap is molded at the factory and the 'tongues' from that…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Nothing here

Well made, easy to install converter for existing recessed lighting

One of the most successful purchases I've made in 2020. This converter worked great and now I have two lights (9000 lumens) for my 300 sqm. Living room, a total upgrade from 2 recessed lights (1700 lumens). Installation was very easy. Depending on your ceiling frame, you may not be able to attach the transducer mount to a wooden structure. However, as long as they are mounted in the downlight's metal body, I have found them to be quite reliable for a medium sized fixture. The converter is very…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Secret

Works great if you're up for a challenge

This kit is all you need to convert a downlight into a pendant light. If you have a hand and patience it will eventually work and save you a lot of money on a much larger project. That being said, it's not exactly easy to install - and believe me, I know what I'm doing. . The downside is that in most cases, the adapter bracket doesn't leave enough width to accommodate the mounting screws. You'll fight for tolerance, you'll reach for pliers, you'll hope the connecting cords are tight enough that

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • I'll write again later
