Review on Westinghouse Lighting 6322800: Dimmable LED Surface Mount for Indoor/Outdoor, Wet Locations - Oil-Rubbed Bronze Finish with Frosted Lens by Joyce Cain

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good. Almost too bright but can be dimmed if needed.

This is a white model with various finishes offered by Revain such as; B. Westinghouse light 6323200. Because it fits into the top of the shower enclosure, I thought white was the most suitable colour. Looking back I think I was right ๐Ÿ˜Š When I first received the flashlight I was a bit puzzled because the bracket that should have been separate seemed to be permanently attached to the flashlight. Another user (Isabella) helpfully pointed out that he was just having a great time. Finally managed to install the lamp today and it was very easy. The main obstacles were my own tendency to get dizzy when working overhead, which required multiple breaks, and existing cables that were stripped and twisted too far back. Neither was Westinghouse to blame. The only minor flaw with the mount was that the exposed ground wire was too short to make a solid connection to the existing ground wire. Luckily I had a 30 year old Radio Shack wire stripper with which I was able to easily strip another half inch of wire after which the connection was secure. Cut off the excess so that no bare wire is left after connection. This was done and the bracket was screwed to the box (easy in our octagonal box), the light snapped into place immediately. After turning the switch and light switch back on, I was pleasantly surprised. The shower is much brighter than in my picture. By the way, if you do electrical work yourself, I highly recommend a non-contact voltage tester like the Fluke 1AC-A1-II VoltAlert Non-Contact Voltage. tester Basically if you squeak and blink when you put it next to a live wire and that's cheap insurance. I objectively knew I'd flipped the right switch and turned off the light, but after double-checking with Fluke I felt a lot more comfortable.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • old
