Good light quality with reservations!

I'm a retired electrician and like most people I'm looking for a way to reduce my electricity bills at home. This is a quality flashlight, but the claims are overpriced and no replacement parts are available. If the lamp fails and a replacement isn't available, you're literally in the dark waiting for a warranty replacement. -150 hp it's a hype. Many Chinese importers offer the exact same bulbs, but Kadion offers a ten-year guarantee. Many commonly argue that this 5000K light is too bright. If you think this is a problem, look for a 3000-4000K or Kelvin lamp. Finally, the kit does not include installation instructions or maintenance factors. LED lighting has a maximum ambient temperature of 120 degrees Fahrenheit. If you live in a hot summer climate, the temperature of direct sunlight on the lamp can exceed 140 degrees for several weeks. With no maintenance or safety factors, only time will tell how long this light will last in these conditions. Actual electrical measurements for this device show it drawing 0.2 amps or 24 watts. Recommendations: Since spare parts are not available and warranty replacements require saved purchase documentation and take too long, buy two lights instead of one. Chinese imports offer a lower purchase price but fall short of American quality and expectations. DB
