Method Lights Wireless LED Picture Light, Wireless Ceiling Mounted Spotlight for Artwork, Painting, Photo Display, Remote Control, 11 Color Temperature Settings, Dimmer, Timer, Rechargeable Battery

AMAZING! A truly worthwhile quality product with amazing features!!!
Let me begin by saying I’m a bit compulsive about the way things “ought” to work. I have some art hanging against a brick wall with absolutely no way to bring electricity to a ceiling light. I’ve tried two wireless, remote control spots with disastrous results (one would dim out within three hours requiring getting out the ladder and replacing the batteries), the second suffered the same fate. Both were too bright requiring my putting some lighting gels over the lens to soften the harsh light. This weekend I got fed up and went back to amazon. I saw the ML200 and was taken aback by the price (considering my other purchases were less than $50). After reading the specs I was VERY interested. 250 hours of light on a rechargeable battery! A dimmer! The ability to control the warmth of the light (without using gels)! Not only that, but they offer an extension wand to recharge the batteries without having to climb on a ladder. Okay, you get the picture, I was impressed. I just installed the light after making a few “personal” alterations (i.e., I sprayed the unit a flat black and in order to extinguish the glare when sitting across from the light, I used a coiled piece of cardboard painted black to go over the front sticking out an inch–just enough to eliminate the glare if you are sitting starring at the light :-)All this said, THIS IS THE SINGLE MOST AMAZING PURCHASE I HAVE MADE THIS YEAR. IT IS QUALITY, QUALITY, QUALITY. IT WORKS EXACTLY AS ADVERTISED (which is rare these days). Oh, and did I mention that I called the company to ask a question…they are not only friendly, but eager to help in any way. I even read on review where a unit that wasn’t performing up to expectations, was immediately replaced.If you’re looking for a wireless, remote control light…do NOT let the price deter you, like me, you will admit it’s worth every penny!

Almost perfect item for a very specific purpose–UPDATED REVIEW
Lighting a sculpture or painting can be a challenge, and the old-fashioned overhead horizontal-ish lamps may work on certain paintings but are lousy for sculptures and just fugly IMO. I’ve got a tree stump with roots that I once dug up, dried for several years, stained, shellacked, and hung on a wall. However even with several overhead spots and torchiere lamps in the room it looked dark and the subtle colors were lost. I was getting ready for an expensive electrician project to install a set of spots in that area when I came across this product. It’s PERFECT! Easily mounted on the ceiling at whatever distance works for your project, and can point in a 360° circle. Changes from a flood to more of a spot with a twist of a dial (make sure you figure out how you want the light to look before mounting since the distance from your piece and the size of the beam basically dictate where it should be placed). The LED’s have the option of running very warm to very cold and everything in-between. Various levels of brightness (note that the max lumens are limited when run on batteries vs. full illumination via the power adapter). 3 or 6 hour timers. All of this is controlled by a simple yet powerful remote which also includes 2 memory banks for preferred settings. I have one set for a 6 hour “show-off” mode when company is over, and the other on a much dimmer and warmer mood-light setting.The lamp itself arrived very nicely packaged with several glossy and well-designed instructional and tip manuals. I’d estimate the the unit will run on my “high” settings for about 6 hours six times before it needs to be recharged. That’s the only negative I can give this device—recharging is NOT a “quick charge” and generally takes around 5-8 hours each time. My ceilings are low enough that it’s easy for me to slide the lamp off of its mount, charge on my counter and re-attach. For those with higher ceilings they do sell a special adapter so that the unit doesn’t need to be taken down, but do realize that will mean that you will have a power cord hanging down from the light for those hours of charging every month or so. Without a doubt if you have the means to hardwire it that’s the way to go. You have brighter settings and no need for charging constantly. One “hack” that I did—when charging on my counter it’s natural to want to place the unit “upside-down” to avoid scratching the white lamp, however the battery pack falls out when flipped (attached by a wire but still a PITA). Initially I kept placing a towel down to keep from scratching it but eventually cut some thin stripes of Gorilla duct tape which now holds the pack in place and is thin enough that it doesn’t affect remounting it on the celling (see photo).Also a word about the company itself. I needed to phone them twice and an actual person picks up the phone on the 1st ring. The first time she helped me figure out an issue re: the remote that I was confused about. I phoned again about a month later as I had figured out that I was re-charging the batteries WAY too often, spoke with gentleman who profusely apologized (lithium batteries can be sketchy, I know), and he immediately shipped out a new pack that have since worked perfectly.Bottom line—it’s a device that fulfills a niche need VERY well. I have not seen anything like it before or since.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~UPDATE 9/12/20–I LOVE this lamp. I LOVE this lamp. I LOVE this lamp.I HATE overnight recharging every 3-4 weeks whether it has been used or not. I HATE overnight recharging every 3-4 weeks whether it has been used or not. I HATE overnight recharging every 3-4 weeks whether it has been used or not.PLEASE MethodLights…..you MUST figure out a Gen. 2 model with either:–a more miserly LED bulb that consumes less power–better batteries for quicker charging and longer time between charges–a remote sensor that doesn’t suck up so much power in Standby mode–or a dedicated true Power Off switch on the light so the batteries are not consumed at allAnd don’t forget to offer discounts to 1st. Gen buyers. ;-)I am sooooo envious of anyone who has theirs hardwired……..
