junk
I used this light 7 times. About15 hours and it died. It also constantly moves after you tighten the knob. I hope they take it back.

    Used as a “heat source” under the sink in an outdoor kitchen during the recent freezing temps (12°-20°) nights - it’s perfect for this small space and it will also function as a work light later easy to maneuver and light weight.

    Not bad for the price
    I got several years out of this light. It was extremely bright. The ability to adjust the angle of the light was faulty from day 1. One of the screws broke within the first year so for the rest of its life it only pointed upwards. It no longer works and I don't know if it's the bulb or the switch but I am going to buy another light rather than spend all the time, effort and money for a fix that may not work. Bulb change no longer possible anyway since the glass has fused to the gasket.

      First one fried at the bulb contact point. To be fair, fixture was hung outside upside down, and rain water might gotten inside the housing where the cord runs in. Replacement has been siliconed at that entry point. 600 watts of halogen provides plenty of outdoor security lighting. Fried previous light had 500 Watt bulb in there. It too, was plenty of outdoor security lighting.

      Garbage
      The porcelain broke on day two. No drops or bumps. Just broke while on. The replacement unit broke on day two as well. Bulb failed. Absolute garbage of a light. I've had similar lights last years of being tossed around in a pickup bed and on a job site.

        I really like this light. Next time I will buy one on a stand because I do not like it so close to the ground.

        Engineered Obsolescence?
        Bulb lasted maybe one month of time during work hours. Anchored to ceiling above chop saw, so not being beaten.
