These are incredibly dim. I was hoping to use 2 sets to replace some halogen puck lights. With both sets hooked up & on, a single 20W puck was well over twice as bright. And since LED lighting manufacturers don't put Lumen ratings on their products, there was no way for me to know. Calling these LEDs "Super Bright" is incredibly optimistic.

This is a wonderful product, it is adequately bright and if you throw/direct the light towards the ceiling, it creates an amazing diffused light effect. Placed them on the cabinets in the kitchen and the effect is amazing. I would like to have them in my entire master bed and family room, but the cost is on the high side. Perhaps I would need at least 3 sets in both rooms for rooms that are about 24 x 15 feet.

The only slight disadvantage is that when they are turned on they are at their brightest and then with the included dimmer, they can be dimmed. Wish there was a way to start in the dim setting and then make them brightest.

I have had these for a week and they are perfect for my needs. I am using them inside a roll top desk to illuminate the work area. I like their being adjustable in direction - direct lighting or indirect, depending on how I point them. I hope I do not have the flickering problem another reviewer described and if I do I will update this review. Only two issues I have are minor. 1) The plastic packaging is horrible to get off of the product. I was afraid I would damage it getting it out. 2) The double sided tape provided isn't strong enough and after two or so days the switch part starts to sag. Manufacturer does provides screws, so no big deal.

These things are a great idea, just don't purchase this brand. The lights are not bright enough and after a few months they started flickering. A few weeks after that they got so dim that I had to pull the entire thing out.
I know there are better sets out there because my brother found one at Costco. Unfortunately, that one is no longer made.
So, save your money and don't get this set.
As for me, I'm looking for a better set to replace this unfortunate purchase.
