Innovative
“Love these lights, really unique, fun to connect, lots of options, decided to use them to replace bed side lamps, they look great and the touch on off is addictive and you can create individual lighting. Will be buying more modules, great unique lighting concept, highly recommended.”
Fabulously cool product !!
“Brilliant product. Couldn’t wait to get it out of the packaging. Arrived exactly on time. Well packaged ( smart box) …easily suitable for giving as a gift . Whilst they should go on a wall for best effect, I plugged them in straight away before placing on wall ….Brilliant white light..but not in your face dentist chair bright…whether just one shape on or all in pack …delivers a nice white, warm light to a room.
Also passed the test with my 12 yr old who thinks they look so cool.
Don’t think anyone would fail to be pleased with them.”
Great Design – simple to use
“Fantastic product, very well packaged and easy to set up. The functionality is very slick and responsive. Very impressed with the brightness of the lighting, can really differentiate the lighting with each panel on which makes it really easy to match your need. Mine are by my bed and work great for nighttime reading and lighting up the whole room. Absolutely brilliant.”
