Didn't like the blueish LED light made my picture unrealistic, the battery box is kind of bulky and the neck tube isn't flexible so the light won't shine on the painting, it lights up the frame and only half the painting.

This is not a bad product especially compared to what I've seen out there and the high prices.

However its not the brightest picture light. I've got it over a pretty large framed poster and it lights about 2/3 of it...good enough for me but definitely not up to gallery standards at all.

Maybe better for a smaller piece.

I use this light to light an 8"x10" photograph. I wouldn't use it for anything over that size. The light is a bit cool to really flatter a piece of art. But if you need inexpensive light this is a good choice.

Honest reviews on Rite Lite LPL602G Battery-Operated 6-LED Picture Light, Gold

I've been looking for a very long time for a cordless picture light one that did not cost in the 3 figures. I read all the reviews here and at another retailer so I did not purchase 2 of these without research still took a chance on this Rite Lite LPL602G.

First the good things: it is light to handle, very easy to install (even has its own levelor and template for the screws), looks great on the wall, and I like that it has a dimmer feature to make the light less glare-y.

The bad things: boy, this light really looks cheap!!! I can't stress that enough. I positioned it so only the light rod and the arch show when I hung my picture. The arch looks fine (it is polished brass-like), but the rod is a cheap, funky, plastic and it looks awful. I thought of returning them, but decided that from far away, they'll suffice.

More bad things: you need to recruit a Marine to open the packaging. What in the world would make a company seal the item this way??? There are 150 layers of plastic surrounding the light and the outside cardboard packaging is glued with some kind of Star Trek Superglue (impossible to rip and extremely hard to cut).

My plan was to use both lights in my hallway, but that would mean that people can get a close look at the light (ugh!), so I will use them instead in my bedroom over a couple of pictures in the corner. From far away (very far away) you can't see the cheapness of the light.

Lastly, the LED lighting casts a blue-ish/white light which I knew about from the reviews I read but if you think that this light will provide ambient light to the entire picture it won't UNLESS you turn the lights around in which case, you will go blind since the LEDs will be starring at you or the wall behind you.

At this point, I will gladly pay the money for a beautiful, cordless picture light.

One more thing and that is, I like nice things but am also very cost conscious so I strive to find items for my home that look like higher priced things but at a much lower cost. I say that to let those know who read this review that since I paid a very low price for these lights, I did lower my expectations and thought that they would work for me. But honestly, they are really bad.

Pro's The light worked fine, it installed easy enough.

Con's The light doesn't cast very far we have a set of three pictures hung on the wall, only the top frame is lit well enough it's about 12 inches high. The color of the plastic is poor and reminds me of a cheap dollar store toy. I opened the package and painted all the plastic parts flat black, left the brass goose neck intact.
