Square Sensor Light

I think this is an excellent product for the price. It is a VERY bright light that you can stick just about anywhere! So it is advertised for usage in bathrooms however, I think it may be not as potent for lighting in my bathroom. I posted a picture holding it up to my bathroom to show just how bright it is but ultimately did not put it there. I put the magnetic strip under an area of my kitchen that was too dark, my coffee making area. I love that it is motion sensored and you can customize it with the remote to turn on and off when you walk by and it detects movement flawlessly. There are several lighting modes and I like to use the warm one as it blends in better with the other lights I have in the kitchen.

It works really great except after 2to 3 days of constant usage it starts getting dimmer and dimmer so I have to take it off the magnet strip and charge it fully. Keep that in mind if you do install it in your bathroom, that you have to remove every couple of days, plug it in to recharge it. I really do like this light a lot and will probably order another one to try out for my closet area. It is extremely bright when it is fully charged, so it does serve its purpose well and is good for any area that is dark and gloomy, it just depends on where you decide to put it and the ease of removing and recharging.

Very bright and so easy to instal

Perfect for over the stove in our off-grid cabin. Easy to setup. I like the remote to turn on/off and the motion sensor. Super convenient. e???e???

Works great in our shower. Doesna??t come with a holder for the remote but a little Velcro fixed that.

PROS:

- 2 strong small magnets on back
- Steel strip for non-ferrous surfaces with choices of screws or adhesive strip to mount
- USB-C charging
- IR remote with all functions

CONS:

- No mountable holder or magnetic mount for remote

OTHER:

Remote is IR (infrared) not RF (radio frequency)

This is one of the lights I am evaluating for use in a darkened area between an upright freezer and my refrigerator where my portable ice maker sits. While the overhead situation does not lend itself to mounting a light and a plug in light would be ungainly, a magnetically attached light works nicely.

The magnets attached it firmly to the side of the upright freezer. For surfaces that are neither iron or steel, a long metal strip is supplied. This can be mounted either with a long adhesive strip or two small screws (for which holes are present in the metal strip), both of which are included.

The included flat style remote with bubble type buttons works well for accessing all the functions. In addition to simple on/off functions, this includes setting the color temperature of the light, turning on sensor mode, adjusting brightness, and setting the light to turn off automatically after 15, 30, or 60 minutes.

The remote itself has no magnet on the back, nor is any mountable holder for it included. To keep it nearby without having it laying on a flat surface, one will need to provide their own solution.

ATTENTION: The remote has a plastic tab sticking out of the battery compartment that needs to be pulled prior to first use.

The remote is infrared rather than using any type of radio frequency connection, however, so it needs to be within line of sight to be used.

I also had another light that appeared to have an identical remote, and I found either remote would control both lights. Keep in mind if you have two of these (or another light with the same remote) in close proximity, this would be problematic if one wished to control each light individually. I listed this under "Other", however, as there could be situations where this is a positive. In my situation, I moved the other light to the side of the refrigerator and can now turn on and off both lights with a single remote.

Another positive to infrared control is this could lend itself to home automation via various WiFi to IR devices. I have used a couple of Broadlink RM Mini3 units in my home to control devices such as this using IR remotes by voice via Alexa.

While I prefer to use the remote to turn the light on and off, it also supports motion detection triggering. Settings are provided both for only use in darkened areas as well as those with more light.

The downside to motion detection (which uses a PIR sensor) is that it detects motion, not presence. This means if one is in the area but not moving, the light will shut down when it times out.

This light has a textured white diffuser that avoids any distinct LED hot spots, giving an even emission of light across the surface.

The light charges via USB-C and a USB-C to USB-A cable is included.

This light represents a decent value for the price at the time of review, and a good solution for many situations where adding a wired light would impractical and/or expensive. I also appreciate the even diffuse light.
