Review of Ott-Lite Clamp-on Task Light

Ott-Lite Clamp-on Task Light
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
I swear by Ott-lights as I have vision problems and work at desk/computer at all times of day/night. This light allows me to easily move the lighting around where I need it and I always customize the base(s) by securing directly to my corner desk/wood raised monitor station with screws. Wonderful product. Replacement of the bulbs isn't often, and they are a bit tough to change-out but well worth it.

I work from home at a desk so you know the scattering of notes and papers that are laying around. The small room has one light that is behind me on the ceiling making for shadows and low light in front of me where I need light the most. I had been using a desk model Ott-Lite for some time and loved the even cool light but really needed something with flexibility that I could swing around where needed.

I have had the Ott-Lite Clamp-On Task Light for a few weeks now. There was some assembly required but no tools were needed and the parts fit perfectly in place. So far I'm impressed. The light is even and cool with only a few seconds warm up time on the bulb. Considering it is made from plastic, it does not have a cheesy feel and stability is really good. When you move it to a new position it stays right in place. The revolving bulb hood is also adjustable and also stays in place no matter where you aim it. The unit does not flop down suddenly or creep over time. The clamp holds the light onto the desk edge securely with only hand tightening. It was nice recouping the space that the desktop model took up.

The light it projects is sweet and amazingly easy on the eyes. I can go the distance with much less eyestrain and without the free sunburn you get with most conventional or high intensity lamps.

I'm thinking that replacement bulbs might be expensive but my older desk unit is still pumping out light after a year of daily use without a bulb replacement so I'm not overly concerned about it.

This is the best desk lamp I ever had. I didn't have a place to clamp it on my computer desk so I put it on a desk next to it and the swivel works great. It also has a flexible arm and a head that rotates 180°. The lighting is fabulous because it is almost completely glare-free even with my glossy finish monitor. It also lessened my eye strain and the light is not harsh at all. I use the 13-watt VisionSaver light bulb and think the lighting is just right for computer use. The draw back I heard on the lamp was that it was expensive and the arm could break, but I have not had the arm break in about eight years. The price appears to have come down from when I bought it.

Received this item from Ken's Vacuum and it was exactly as advertised and works great I use it for fly tying. It was shipped immediately (even though it was ordered right before the Holidays.

I really like Ott-lites. I use it in a medical office and it gives good, true color. Wish the bulbs weren't so expensive but they do last a pretty long time.

We just repainted and decorated the kids playroom and wanted something very simple and gave off plenty of late. This light fixture does both. My husband and I as well as the kids love it. And even choose to leave the bulbs exposed and not use covers.

This item has two 250W sockets and a fan, which can be switched in any configuration. I have the fan on one switch and the bulbs on separate switches wired in series with manual timers. This allows me to control the lights (infrared/infrared or infrared/incandescent)with a timer to ensure they do not remain on if I forget. The manual switch allows me to turn off the lights if the timer is still running. The unit works great and was easy to install. It requires more than average sophistication to understand the instructions. Also, although it seems to work well, the unit arrived slightly bent due to poor packaging. One feature I liked a lot is that the fan can be removed for cleaning or replacement through the cover. I can't testify as to how it will hold up; however, it works as advertised for now. Shipping was fast and I consider it a good buy, especially considering I was not able to find many IR units for bathrooms.

OK, the old one was identical, I installed it 20 years ago. It still works, just a bit noisy, but I found I could replace it entirely for less than a new motor/fan. I think I have replaced bulbs once during the time. Same timer switch, too. There aren't many products out there that work 20+ years with only minor cleaning/oil, so I got another one. Simple installation; this one I'll exchange, re-caulk, and be back in business. Save yourself trouble; use non-flexible duct that vents outside from the very start. Shipping was free and fast. I'd certainly buy from them again.

I was using a 1500W ceramic heater to heat our bathroom. I'd turn it on about a half hour before I wanted to take a shower but would often get delayed or forget and it'd run for hours. Now I turn on the Broan heater as I enter to shave or take my shower and turn it off when I am finished. 500w for 25 minutes is much cheaper than 1500w for 1-3 hours.

I have each bulb and the vent fan on separate switches so I can control what runs. 500w directly overhead is very efficient and I suspect will be overkill in warmer seasons. It definitely knocks the chill off the room.

I especially like that it has 2 heat sensors, either of which will turn on the fan if necessary to ensure the enclosure doesn't overheat if I'm only using the heat lamps.

Installation was very easy with adequate adjustments to make everything fit and look great. The wiring illustrations were clear for the various optional configurations.

Honest reviews on Broan 164 2-Bulb Ventilation Heater Bath Fan with Lights

This unit is compact yet provides decent ventilation and heat. The wiring allows you to put the fan and the heat lamp on separate switches. The fan is reasonably quiet and will keep the mirrors from fogging up... unless you take 180-degree showers. With a 250-watt bulb the heat lamp helps to warm up the room although it is not as fast as you might think. Overall a good fixture that is relatively easy to install.

This is a pretty good product and a good price, but its for new construction not for retrofits.

The difference is that there will be air gaps between the ceiling drywall and this unit if you are retrofitting. Especially if you have an older house with an old unit that was nailed directly to a joist. This unit has sliding steel rails so you can locate anywhere between the ceiling joists which is ok for new construction but for retrofits you will have a huge air gap.

Review of Lithonia OFLR 6LC 120 MO WH LED Outdoor Floodlight 2-Light Motion

About two months ago I bought two of these Lithonia Floodlights for two areas of my house to make it easier to see at night and for security purposes. I am very happy with this purchase. They are very reliable and emit a bright cool light (white/blue rather than white/yellow).

I will now provide you with some facts as noted on the box so I word it succinctly: As it explains on the box, the 22 watt LEDs have a life of 50,000 hours (each) compared to a typical 100 watt bulb that only lasts 3,000 hours. I am especially glad to be saving so much money over the year. In addition as noted the lower wattage (although comparably bright) saves on the electric bill, another plus.

The motion sensor is adjustable up to a 180 degree range and 70 feet with downward perimeter protection.

The lamp also has sensitivity and on-time adjustable knobs and the sensor has a manual override option. The two heads on the lamp are adjustable for light spread.

I am back to buy another one to replace a ten year old halogen fixture that has seen better days. It will be nice to not have to continually buy halogen bulbs anymore, too.

I ran into the blinking issue as well. I returned and got another thinking it was defective. The new light had the exact same problem. The problem is that the daylight sensor picks up the light when it turns on so it immediately turns off. The solution is turn the canisters so the protruding lip faces down. It should be aligned between the light canister and the motion sensor. This prevents the light from flooding onto the sensor. Worked like a charm. Note that it means you turn it opposite than all the marketing pictures I've seen for this product, including the one on Amazon. I subtracted a star because of the lack of instructions for this fix and that it was designed that way at all. However, I love having an LED and it behaves very well now. It's worth noting than you will see the standard blue hue of an LED light with this product.

I must be on my third motion security light in 8 years. Everything seems to be built like garbage lately. I decided to pay a little money for this highly rated one and the fact that the bulbs are LED may mean I don't have to keep crawling up the ladder to change bulbs. I've had it for 3 weeks now and it senses motion well and the light fills up my whole backyard as if it were one big light instead of two. If it has years of durability this will be the best light ever. I'm considering buying another one. Very satisfied so far.

Honest reviews on Lithonia OFLR 6LC 120 MO WH LED Outdoor Floodlight 2-Light Motion

Lights are installed by every indication according to instructions, but strobes continuously when activated by the motion detector. I have yet to get either of the 2 installed to stay on continuously, except in test mode. Lithonia customer service said light from the fixture was reflecting into the dusk-to-dawn sensor causing it to strobe and I should aim the lights away further from sensor and to reposition the motion detector head so that the sensor gets less light reflection. Not easy to do given the limited space under the angled eaves. Both professional installer & I are suspicious there is a design issue or sensor issue. Anyone with similiar problem?? I have 2 of the same fixture mounted on different parts of the house under the eaves and both have the same problem with strobing. Disabling the motion detector via the wall switch (per the instruction sheet) has no effect, the lights still strobe (which makes sense if it is the dusk-to-dawn sensor causing it to strobe).

I have purchased many, many motion detector lights for security and convenience over the years, but this was my first Lithonia purchase as well as my first LED light.

Compared to other lights for this purpose, LED or not, this is a well manufactured device. It worked correctly the first time only requiring some night time adjustment to get the lighting coverage I wanted. I did not have to repoint the motion detector at all after my initial pointing.

The output from the two LED heads which contain multiple LED's is very good when compared to other security lighting.

I installed it under the eave (easy to install) in the spring and the summer temperatures here in the Kansas City area have been in the 100's. So far not a problem at all with the light tolerating the direct sun exposure which far exceeded the high temps for the day. The white color reflects the sun light which also helps.

As usual, the Amazon ordering and receiving process was excellent.

In summary, a great purchase and I am going to get another one for the other side of the house this month.

My parent's old plug-in sway light gave out after 25 years, and we were looking for a replacement. We found these and thought what a good price. Some of the product specs said they were plug-in swag lights and others didn't. When we received these lights, the size and style was nice, but they weren't plug-in swag lights. We had to buy a light kit to make into plug-in swags. It still was a good buy regardless.

I was looking for this style of pendant on a limited budget and wanted to spend less than $100 on it since we were already spending so much money on a total home renovation. This fixture was purchased for $80 and change and I couldn't be happier!the clear seeded glass is beautiful and it looks striking in the narrow hallway I placed it in. I get a lot of comments on it. I wish I had purchased one more before it shot up in price! I would place one in our small foyer as well. So much impact for not a lot of money and good quality too! Only challenge was putting it together be use the directions were quite poorbut overall i have to give it 5 stars!

The items sent were replacement types that were almost identical. I received 2Canarm Sherwood Polished Brass Three-Light 52-Inch Ceiling Fan with Frosted GlassBellacor Number: 619385.

The replacement were sent w/o notifying me in any way.

To date I'm very impressed with these fans. They run almost silently in all speeds and on high they put out quite a good volume of air. So far I see nothing to complain about.

When we searched to buy a fan, we purposely looked for one with a remote control. This fan was categorized as a fan that brings a remote, HOWEVER.. it does NOT bring a remote.

Other than the mistake on their part, it seems like a pretty decent fan.

but has a slight hum when operating at low and medium speeds. Hardly noticeable at high speed. I used the new CFL candelabra base bulbs 13w=60w regular. Nice and bright and saves energy too. Oak side of the blade not too attractive but the walnut color looks great w/ polished brass. Overall a good buy so I bought another for the family room.

I ordered this item on Friday and didn't choose overnight shipping, BUT I received it nice and early the next day...and it was even prettier than it looked on the website! It's just perfect to hang in our new portico. We had shopped at the local Home Depots and Lowes stores but none of them carried the "brass" finish hanging lanterns...and expecially not in the smaller size. I am so happy with my purchase!
