RAB FFLED18/PC 18 Watt high performance LEDs LED FloodLight Reviews

Customer Ratings:

This RAB light is perfect for mounting in a porch area near an entry door. It is designed to point down and flood the ground and stairs or steps with light, keeping the light out of your eyes as you stand in front of the door. It is not meant to flood your yard with light. RAB has several other LED light designs that fulfill this need very well,(check out their full line) and are very bright and high quality. I mounted this light over my back porch and it is perfect. My old flood light would come on and blind anybody at the door. They actually had to hold up their hands to block the light. This light lights up the walkway, steps, porch and is not in your eyes when standing on the porch. It is equivalent to a 70 watt metal halide but only uses 18 watts. It has a 50,000 LED life which is equal to over 15 years left on 24/7. Forget about replacing burnt out bulbs. Advertising does say made in USA but the box says "custom manufactured in China by RAB". Amazon has them about 15% cheaper than my local electrical store. They are expensive but with the proper light you'll find they are worth it.

I just got this from RAB Lighting. Took it out of the box and liked everything from a great pack job, to the quality of what appears to be a nice heavy well made FloodLight. Just to add that I purchased the sensor with this FloodLight as well. The model number is STL3FFLED18. They both arrived in seperate boxes packed well. Now the first thing I did was look at the box and guess what? It's made in CHINA, and is advertised as being make in the USA. I then looked at the sensor. Guess what? Made in MALAYSIA. More false advertising. NOTHING is USA made here for starters. Now this is not really what bothers me at all. If the light worked well is all that matters to me and for 257.26 it better. Keep in mind that RAB is supposedly a top notch lighting company in New Jersey, and I can't say they are not but what I can say is this. The design of the light must have been done by a man on drugs in my opinion. What light does NOT adjust Left & Right?? I don't even think they make any kind of light where it adjusts ONLY up and down and NOT left and right. Let's just look at the logic of this. You MUST mount this light to the position you are directly shining the light. So if its in your backyard, it HAS to be installed on the center of your home to perform like it should and provide the proper coverage. You cannot mount it on the corner of your home which is my set-up because again, no left to right adjustment. I called up RAB and did not get much help. The guy just asked me why would I need to turn the light? Ahhhhh maybe to adjust it? Need I say more. So anyway, I don't even know how this light will perform, have not tested it yet. I may test it out tonight and check out the brightness, sensitivity, etc.. I plan on going to an electrical store tomm. and finding some kind of extension that will allow the light to move left and right like every other light that ever existed does. Anyway, I rated this 1 star because of POOR design and ignorant technical support.

This light is useless to me if I can't turn it to the left a little to direct light to the center of my yard.

I WILL give an update soon.
