Very nice lights and super bright. They work well and was easy to install on my camper.

Wonderfully bright and great throw angle. I have them in my overlander roof rack and they light up almost a complete circle with only one on each side. Cannot be beat for the price. Cycling power switched from white to yellow and back, and after being off for some time they'll turn back on to white no matter how they were before.

I've tried a few other lighting options on my roof rack and this seems to be the best, so far.Typically people just use rock lights up roof racks as scene lighting. But let's be honest. Nearly all the inexpensive (aka - cheap) rock lights are made in China in the same factories, and their light output is pretty low. You see lights with 20-30-40-50 LEDs claiming to make 1k lumens and they're all pretty shoddy on true light output.Then there's the form factor. If you bolt your rock lights flat on the side of the roof rack, easily 75% of your light is going outwards and upwards. It's not going down towards the ground where you need it. The bracket options to address this are pretty sparse, and to be honest it ends up just being an overpriced version of a 45deg angle corner brace that you can buy at a hardware store like Lowe's or Home Depot. And either way (over-priced or cheap DIY) it ends up looking kinda half-assed.So, I ran across these LED RV porch lights. The idea is great: Being able to mount an LED light on a flat vertical surface with the light aimed downwards to illuminate the ground next to your vehicle.Which is right where you want it! BRILLIANT!!!The biggest issue I've run into with previous RV porch lights I have tried, is total light output. Same as with various rock lights. They're ALL overstating their lumen output. After a while you get used to it and just automatically knock off 30%-50% from what they're claiming. Now some of the name brand manufacturers like KC and Diode Dynamics are pretty spot on with their stated lumen output. KC Cyclones v2.0 claim 600 lumen and Diode Dynamics claim 1k lumen (on the bright setting). From what I've seen of these in person (I've got KC Cyclones on my Jeep currently) they're accurate in their ratings.But, anyhow. I digress.....This particular RV porch light seems to fit the bill for claimed light output & mounting form. There was a very slight bit of light pixelation (from the patterning on the lens that is meant to control the spread of the light) but it wasn't noticeable to the point of being distracting or annoying. There isn't a clear beam cut-off (like you'll see with some LED headlight conversions) at the furtherest extent of where the light falls on the ground, but there was a visible subtle drop-off where you could see the edge of the light pattern ending. So that's overall good as far as quantity & quality of light output. 👍To further harp on light output... This is a switchback style light, with white & amber output. Both colors seem to be outputting the amount claimed in the specs - 1300 lumen for white and 1k for amber. Usually it's a 25%-30% loss in lumens output between white and other colors like yellow or amber (whether it's a colored filter or actually true color LEDs) and as expected there was a visible reduction in light output switching between white & amber with this light. Now, that said... The amber light output on this unit was essentially equal to that of a pair of KC Cyclones (spaced 5ft apart) with amber filters on them. KC claims 600 lumens per light, and this particular RV porch light unit was just as bright (to my eye at least).So, moving on.....Construction of the light was solid. The entire body is metal which should act as a good heat sink for the LEDs during extended use. The wiring exits out the back of the light towards the top and it centered, with a channel that lets you route it to either side as necessary. There's a foam gasket included to seal the back of the light to whatever surface you mount it on.(One thing the seller is a bit off with. They claim the downwards angle of the light bezel is 11°. This may be correct, but the mounting side of the light is angled as well and you end up with more downward angle of the light than the advertised 11°. I've measured it, and it is approx 45° downward angle. Not really an issue IMO, and it's about the correct angle you'd want in the first place. But it's worth noting the discrepancy for anyone else considering buying this unit.)The seal on the front of the light between the lens & the body is the one area I am concerned about. There's a visible silicone seal between the lens & the body that would be the most likely point for leakage. I've seen reviews for this light & the same light from another seller (remember, they're all made in the same chinese factory and just get packaged with different retailer names on them) that were poorly sealed and had leaked. That is the one thing I will have to keep an eye on.But otherwise? So far I am very pleased with this LED light. Time will tell though how it handles the elements as far as durability.*Added pics from a second unit I bought, and the silicone sealing around the lens is pretty sloppy (see pics). I'm concerned about the water resistance of the light.I'm tempted to crack it open and see if the LEDs are epoxy sealed (doubt it) which would really alleviate any concerns about water intrusion.** Added pics showing the angle of the light (45°) and comparison pics of this RV porch light vs KC Cyclones on my Jeep. (2x RV porch lights drivers side vs 2x KC Cyclone 2 on passenger side)

Plenty of light looks great.

Love the way you just toggle the switch to change from amber to white.
