StanLite - LED Light Bar, Motion Sensor Detector Night Light Closet Under Cabinet NightLight - Battery Operated (Cool White)

I originally bought this for under-cabinet lighting. It's too sensitive to ambient light. Since the light only activates when the unit senses that it is dark in the room, the light did not go on when I mounted it under the cabinet (even though it was a pretty dark corner). Apparently our overhead kitchen light produced too much light. While it's not good for under-cabinet task lighting, I found it to be very useful for stairway lighting. I'd previously purchased OXY LED battery-operated lights for the stairs, and they had the opposite problem. They would activate even during the daytime. I replaced the OXY light with this one and am very pleased. It only activates when it's very dark and it gives off a good amount of light.UPDATE Jan 2016: I changed my review from 5 stars to 3 stars because after only 1 month, the light needs new batteries. I thought it would last longer because it doesn't activate during the daytime. I'll go back to the OXY LED light for my stairway. Though it turned on during the daytime, it lasted 4 months on one set of batteries.

The light bar is nice. The light is pretty bright and the motion sensor works flawlessly. My one complaint about it would be that the light does not stay on very long. I put it above some liquor bottles in my bar. It doesn't seem like it runs more then 2-3 minutes if its not detecting motion. This light would be ALOT better in my eyes if it would stay on for 15 minutes every time the sensor is tripped. This light is more designed for a dark closet or area that isn't used as much. I thought I could get away using it in the bar, but will probably end up putting it in a closet and get hard wired lights for the bar.

Nice warm light. Easy to install with peel and stick magnet.I used for under cabinet lighting, but when I have main kitchen lights on the light will not turn on because of the light sensor/ too bright in the room. The room needs to be pitch black for the sensor to pick up and turn light on. Not what I expected, was hoping they would just turn on from my movement near the counters for extra light when prepping food. Might return or just look for something else and stick it in a closet or something.

Just ok. I would have liked for the motion sensor to pick up a better range of motion and the built in light sensor is too sensitive. I bought two of these and one light will not turn on when the other is on because the light sensor picks up the light and doesn't turn on.

This light bar gives off an incredible amount of light. Unfortunately, I didn't realize at the time I purchased (2 of them) that they were strictly controlled by "motion". Thus my original application was quite different from what these units were assigned to do. I'm giving 5 stars because the quality of the product itself as well as shipping warrants this rating...not my stupidity for not fully understanding what I was buying. I've read far too many reviews based on the "stupidity" of the reviewer...blaming the seller or the product for something out of their control, rather than rating the product itself. Most certainly if I were looking for a light bar that gives off a lot of light that comes on (goes off), works on 4 AA batteries (that are not included), and works on motion (even 20 feet away)--these units would be my FIRST choice!These light bars come with a double sided peel off sticky tape with magnetic strip so they can be attached anywhere on a door/door frame etc.

I would not recommend this item. This light is OK, but is definitely not what I expected. You can buy a very similar light at Wal Mart for half the price. I saw a similar light at Wal Mart and thought Amazon would carry a much higher quality light since these were way more expensive. Way too expensive!!! I would return but do not want to pay the return shipping. I may return anyway in spite of the return cost of shipping. Light is OK but too expensive, definitely not worth the money.

I LOVE this light bar. I've only had it for a week so I don't know how long the batteries will last, but so far I'm extremely pleased. I needed additional lighting for my kitchen and thought I'd try this out just to see how under cabinet lighting would look before planning on doing any electrical work to install puck lights. I attached this above my sink and it works perfectly. It doesn't turn on when there is daylight, but in the evening when the ambient lighting in my kitchen is fairly low, it turns on when I approach to wash dishes and turns off if there is no movement. The light quality is warm and bright and perfect for giving me a little more task lighting without having to think about it. No switches, no wiring, and it's very affordable. It's like a little bit of luxury and feels like I have a high-end "smart" kitchen and it was so incredibly easy to set up. Put in the batteries, stuck it where I wanted it, done.

I bought this light for a small bedroom closet. It gives off about as much light as a nightlight. I think I would need about 10 of these to adequately light even a small closet. I should have known, since it runs on 4 AAA batteries. Now it's on the closet ceiling for now, but I'll have to deal with a better solution later. Disappointed.
