Review: Just buy this, you'll love it - Update 10/21/2014: All lights are still going strong after 5 more months. One is used constantly, and batteries are still good. We'll see how long they last under heavy use... Update 5/20/2014: I moved to a house that's over 100 years old and none of the closets have lights (heck, none of the bedrooms have lights). Anyway, the closets are very dark. I've purchased a few more of these now and have monitored the battery usage. When monitoring movement and not lit, it only uses 60uA or 1.44mAh per day. When the LED is on, it uses 360mA for 30 seconds (or longer if there's movement). As it's drawing 360mA when lit, alkaline batteries will be able to provide about 6000mAh. Alkaline batteries *can* provide 8000mAh, but only with a much lower load (around 25mA). In other words, for each 30 seconds the LED is on, it uses 3mAh of power, so it can be triggered 2,000 times on one set of good alkaline batteries. I've found that it gets triggered about 6 times a day or around 3 minutes total. That means that each day it uses 18mAh for the LED and 1.44mAh for the movement sensor for a total of 19.44mAh per day. What does all this mean? It means that a set of good alkaline batteries lasts (6000 / 19.44 = 308 days) or around 10 months. Some last longer as they're not used as often, but 10 months is about the average in our house. This is really good battery usage for such a bright light, and it is PLENTY bright. Hope this helps! Original review: My daughter's closet is dark so it's hard to see her clothes when getting ready for school before the sun comes up. I looked around at a few different models and this one stands out because of the low battery usage and bright light. It works perfect. Easily detects when she enters the closet, stays lit while looking for clothes, and turns off when she leaves. It's also bright enough to see everything and the spread of the light is wide enough to light the entire closet. Can't really say anything bad about it. And the price is great as well. You can't go wrong with this.
Review: WORKS GREAT - BUT NOT ANYMORE - UPDATED 2/2/14 & 7/17/15 - I've installed these for about 30 days. I have one in 3 closets, and one in the attic above the pull down attic steps. Before I had to use a flashlight, and that was a "PAIN". These units use 4 C size batteries, and I am thinking that they should last a while with LED bulbs. They function fine, and each location does NOT have an ambient light problem. These lights are very bright and the pool of light is MORE than adequate for the space that needs to be illuminated. I know some reviewers had problems, mainly they seem to stop working after a while. We will see ... as time goes on, I will update as needed. For now, I am very happy with these units. UPDATE: 02/02/14 About a month ago, 2 of the 4 lights I installed, went bad. The same problem that everyone else complained about, 2 (the most used) lights simply stayed on for about a day and a half until the batteries died. I really liked these, but they seem to have a year lifetime on them. The 2 that are used rarely are still working fine (Attic and seldom used closet). Since these were a bit expensive, I am going to replace them with much cheaper motion led lights. Buying expensive ones did nothing but cost more for "junk". I brought the 5 stars down to 2 stars, as these appear to be "disposable" lights WITH ABOUT 1 YEAR OF USE ON THEM. UPDATE: 07/17/15 After getting the comment from the company, I emailed them and received a reply that as the batteries ran down, the light would function erratically. Since when the lights stayed on, it still appeared very bright, I assumed the unit was acting up and not batteries.. Luckily, I did NOT throw out the lights. I put new batteries in both "bad" units, and they started to work as normal. I will update again after a few months to see if they stay fixed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ *almost* Perfect. See suggestions
*by B***D on July 23, 2015*

Let me start off by saying I really like this product, and I will probably buy another for a different application. My current application is in a shower that had little lighting and was pretty dark before I bought this light. I needed something relatively cheap and easy to install. This fits the bill on all of those fronts. Install was easy. What I did not like was the fact that the light has a "feature" that disables the light from working if there is light in the setting that it is in. So for my application of low light, the light would not engage when motion was detected. Before purchasing this product, I read a review of a user that had the same problem and solved it with a small piece of electrical tape. I did the same thing and covered up the light sensor (not the larger motion sensor next to it on the board), and voila - it worked fine. As for the amount of light it puts out- it is perfect. Lights up the shower just fine and is actually in my opinion quite pleasant. One subject that other reviews have not mentioned (at least that I have read) is how this operates in regards to the timer. I was worried that the timer would give out after 30 seconds and I would have the light turning on and off many times during my shower. I have yet to have this happen once. when I move the shower curtain open, the light instantly turns on - I don't even think about it now. I will try to post how long my batteries hold up - my hope is that they last for years, not months. That said I will list a few suggestions to the manufacturer and pros and cons Suggestions (why this did not get 5 stars) - The ambient light function. I get why the feature is there, but you should leave the consumer the choice to have it on or off. So adding a switch for this function would be great so I don't have to disassemble the entire light and apply a band aid fix. Its sloppy. - A selector switch to increase the duration of the light be on ie 30 seconds a minute 5 minutes and so on - another MASSIVE improvement that could be made is in the power department. Integrating a li-ion battery and charging mechanism would make this absolutely perfect. The cost of 4 C batteries is a significant consideration and a li-ion option would be great for extended use without paying a ton for batteries. Pros: Great amount of light Sensitive motion sensor Easy install LED should extend the replacement time of the batteries as it consumes low amounts of power Cons: Cost of 4 C batteries to run the light (9 dollars for duracell ultras almost doubles the actual cost of the setup) Ambient light sensor (no switch) had to resort to using electrical tape
