Thus the actual review: What shone towards me here does not correspond to the product description. The first, to cool Einduck then was also confirmed, when I compared with other lamps. As I have long been experimenting with a for me permanently enjoyable and productive home office color temperature, I abound comparative material here, both as ESL, as well as a LED, in 4000K, 4500K, 5000K, 5200K, 6000K and 6500K color temperature. The light-reviewed seems even to exceed the 6500K me. Very cool, blue light. Both when it looks from some distance, as well as compared to the respective illuminated white blanket. So then found himself neither on the packaging, even inside a reference to the built-in LEDs, or at least an indication of the color temperature. I suspect this is deliberately done in order to keep open a little, what you built.
A my opinion unhappy dissolved state is also the cover of the LEDs. I had before, in addition to illuminate the light from the side to 1.80m height desk lighting and the opposite window incident daylight. Unfortunately, the lamp is in the corner of your eye through the clear smooth cover very glaring and dazzling. Even in the base position of the kitchen closets very uncomfortable as soon establishes himself in the kitchen at one seating. In its function as Untebauleucht really only be used if you have no seat, from which they would be seen directly, or if they are left radiate back to the wall. Much better I think because the existing in other LED strips solutions, either a corrugated cover glass (takes some of the immediate stridency and refracts light in such a way that the viewing angle is still a little wider), or use a glass of milk (takes the bright and will pleasantly diffuse). And yes, I have compared the comparable with lights lumens. But even with weaker lighting true the facts described.
Respect, consideration should be given to what extent the (for me when ordering attractive translucent) 45 ° design of the luminaire is Snoch sense. Actually they can be in this angle not really placing them so that they do not appear unless you turn it towards the wall. Then I might as well take a more favorable light, which radiates down easy.
On the plus side is that the light output for the specified 5.5W is quite good. But not overwhelming. If I take four of my old Lunartec 0.8W lights (= total of the same price), it corresponds to the brightness of at least approximately, the latter have the advantage that you can distribute the light better and already a connection cord is provided for coupling a plurality of lights. However, seeing that also cheaper than the Parlat light. Still, I guess you could dispense with these three lights in the kitchen already safely in the overhead light.
The haptics and optical quality is ok - it is and remains plastic look and can not be compared and great service design, but within the "plastic corner" the light mE already one of the fancier!
Total - let go without the problems of delivery - I admit taking into account the points mentioned and the value for money three points.
I even let the light go back, because I was looking for a light neutral white 4000K color temperature, in order specifically to integrate into my "lighting set".
