No UL approval in US

I had to send the light back as the electrician told me he could not install it in our home as the lights are not UL approved.

Pros
  • As is everything still
Cons
  • For the old

Good little bulbs work best in body and trim kits

They are easy to install and wire up in a cabinet I built. Standard hole saw size for installation. The light is cooler than what I think is warm white but certainly suits my project.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Replacement availability

Works well, easy to install

Easy to install, although personally I wasn't a fan of wired pushbutton locks. For the price you can't go wrong unless there is another cheaper lamp at Revain. I put them in the dressing room at the request of the "boss". Happy woman happy life.

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Something's wrong

Good light: Recessed

I love the light. Very stable light with great beam spread. Just prepare yourself with wire nuts or a soldering iron and heat shrink tubing so the wires don't stay connected. The little plastic snap is a joke. But overall I'm very happy with the light. And no delays when switching on.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cord shorter than other options

Exterior lighting on the Carnas,

installs these as exterior lighting on Carnas, the bulbs look great the cords are a bit small so connecting directly to the power cord has become a problem but you are allowed to look perfect. I HAVE CONNECTED THEM TO THE REGULATOR AND THEY REDUCE THE POWER TO 1% AND NOT YET FLICKING. THEY ARE WORTH THE COST AND I HAVE CHECKED WITH THEM SO FAR

Pros
  • works well
Cons
  • not the best

Not quite dimmable!

I installed them with a dimmer according to the connection diagram which was promptly emailed to me by product support at my request. The light flickers at almost all dimmer settings except full power. They are useless at any setting near dimming. I emailed support again about this issue and they replied "I wouldn't use a dimmer with this light". This is after they advertised "dimmable" and even sent me a diagram of how to dim them. This is so ridiculous it's funny. :) I'm sending them back.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • There are new competitors

Works great: Electrical

Nice little dimmable LEDs. The AC/DC converters included in the kit must be placed in an AJ box (not included) to match the code. I cut off the linear converters and ran 12V DC wires up to the ceiling from a 12V DC-AC converter (standard wall light fixture) and a cheap DC linear dimmer that I hid in my closets. Works perfectly.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automation

Street lamps, work excellently

installs these as street lamps, the lamps look beautiful, the wires are a bit small, so connecting directly to the electric cable is difficult, but if you understand the solution, they look and work great. I CONNECTED THEM TO THE REGULATOR AND THEY REDUCED POWER TO 1% AND STILL NO Flicker. THEY ARE WORTH THE COST AND I HAVE USED THEM SO FAR

Pros
  • many positive emotions
Cons
  • without power
