We haven’t had but a few power loses at night. But when we do and have these lights strategically placed. Clicking the one remote makes it much easier to find the kitchen, other bedrooms or bathrooms. Very helpful when you are getting older. We have 4 or 5lights and the remote works on all units.

Hi Richard, we are very sorry to hear that you are less than satisfied with the battery life on our GE Battery Operated LED Light Bar. Our focus is to provide quality products that deliver and exceed our customer’s expectations, and we regret that we fell short.

The light offers 2 modes, RF or by manually switching on and off. The RF mode will drain the batteries quicker versus manually turning the fixtures on and off. With normal usage (activating the light around 4 operations a day) in RF mode, the battery life for this light bar is around 25 hours if left in RF mode continuously. To prolong the life your battery, we recommend that you switch the mode to ON/Off instead of RF.

If you have any further questions, please give us a call at 1-800-654-8483, press option 4, and provide our Consumer Care Team with your ticket number (419960) so that we can resolve your issue promptly, or email us at az@byjasco.com and include your ticket number (419960) in the subject line. Thank you. (Hours of operation: Monday – Friday 7 AM – 8 PM CST) GETechSupport

Hi Terry, thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear about the recent unsatisfactory experience you had with our product. As the manufacturer, our priority is to provide complete customer satisfaction.

With LED lights being such an energy efficient product, products such as our GE LED Under Cabinet Light Bar need a brand new, fresh set of batteries, with all batteries in the light being the same brand. Avoid mixing old with new batteries, for this could potentially drain your new batteries quicker.

The light offers 2 modes, RF or by manually switching on and off. The RF mode will drain the batteries quicker versus manually turning the fixtures on and off. With normal usage (activating the light around 4 operations a day) in RF mode, the battery life for this light bar is around 25 hours if left in RF mode continuously. To prolong the life your battery, we recommend that you switch the mode to ON/Off instead of RF.

If the problem persists, please give us call between the hours of 7 AM – 8 PM Central Standard Time, Monday thru Friday at 1-800-654-8483, press option 4, and provide our Consumer Care Team with your personal ticket number 400400, so that we can resolve your issue promptly. If you’d prefer to email, our contact is bz@byjasco.com and please include your personal ticket number (400400) in the subject line. We look forward to assisting you in resolving this issue.

EZ to install but it takes 6 AA batteries and drains them quickly in remote mode. I'm switching them to off mode to see if batteries last longer. This unit seems to work well .for quick on/off but not for prolonged under counter lighting.

I needed new lighting for my kitchen behind the valance over my sink. Read the reviews and thought that is was the product for me. I purchased three of the lights. They all worked with one remote. The lighting was a big disappointment. The batteries (6 double A in each unit for a total of 18) lasted one evening. Home Depot or GE employees must have submitted the 5.0 ratings.

    So far, no good, folks. The remote worked the first two times I pushed the button, then nothing. The lights worked for two nights, then nothing....which makes no sense, considering the wealth of expensive batteries. I'm very disappointed.

    Light quality good, light construction good and light size good; but, eats batteries. Also, the screws provided to attach the light were weak metal composite. While putting the screws into a predrilled hole in basswood, each screw top twisted off. Opportunity- provide better quality screws.
