My wife laughed at me:"Why would you want a light that comes on when there's light?"

I was wondering how it didn't just stay on after the door was closed, once it created it's own 'ambient light'.

These do work, and in some situations may be just what you need. But I found the ambient light required is too high for most situations. For example, in my spice cabinet, the kitchen lights have to be blazing before this puck lite comes on inside the cabinet. I've moved it around and re-aimed the sensor, but it just requires too much light to be effective.

As to the second question, you can create enough reflection in a tight space, such as a drawer, to have the light sensor keep itself on. But that's not usually the problem.

Bottom line: in most cases this application would be better served by a motion detector, rather than an ambient light detector.

Rite-Lite does make small magnetic switch lites that work very well Rite Lite LPL632 Drawer Light, and are perfect for cabinet drawers.

I put these in my truck box, just for some light if I need to get into it at night. Don't fool yourself and think that these will have the light output of a couple of headlights. They aren't that bright, but they give plenty of light for rummaging around in the bed of a truck. I installed 2 of them, and have the 3rd for something else, just not sure what yet.

I bought these to go inside a closet, thinking that when the door is open, they will come on. Not so much. Mounted in a useful position, openeing the closet did not provide enough light (even on the low-light setting) to turn these on. So I moved it right up to the front of the closet. Well, that worked... however when you close the closet, the light reflecting off the door is enough to keep the stupid thing on, so it wouldn't turn off. I wound up turning off the light sensor and just using it as a tap light. Maybe my closet and lighting is unique, but I doubt it.

Honest reviews on Rite Lite LPL623XLL 5 LED Puck Light with Optional Light Sensor 3

Just "OK". Not extremely bright, fairly flimsy construction, light sensor is somewhat superfluous. Requires relatively bright ambient light, and if I had that much light I wouldn't need the Puck Light. You can still push on and off; dim setting is not needed and just an extra step to turn off. 3 stars is fair.

Good brightness like a bright flashlight but with a wide dispersed beam. I attached one to the inside of a closet door so light shines in when I open door. Sensor does not always turn on the light so I decided to use in manual mode. Attaches with either velcrow or a like a picture frame on a small screw
