(More customer reviews)Lights in a tube! what else is there, really?
These seem to be a good quality rope light, very bright, and fairly consistently bright throughout the whole length of the product (which turned out to be just over 50 feet, probably about 53-54 feet not including the power apparatus). overall, very satisfied with the build quality and the lighting quality.
As noted, the cool white is excellent for reading and high-contrast environments. I have this mounted on molding about 8 inches from the ceiling (which is 8 foot), and it fully lights the room without any trouble whatsoever. this particular color temperature is excellent for lighting in a computer room or somewhere you might be looking to neutralize the retina burning glow of ultra high contract LCD monitors and dont require absolute darkness (or if you prefer a lighted area and hate cool white CFL bulbs, which are just horribly blue tinted.)minus one star for the mounting clip design. it might be sufficient for sheetrock walls, but its a PITA for plaster with years and years of paint layers. the included screws are short and the threading is too shallow to grip when screwed in. I ended up making pilot holes using a nail and hammer, then hammering these screws in to prevent them from stripping their own holes. I suppose that may be a problem with my walls more than the design, so i digress.
the clips themselves are just OK. them seem to be made of a type of plastic that will become brittle over a period of time.
on the plus side, they do give you 50 clips, 50 screws, and a handful of frosted color zipties.last thing to note: if you are nitpicky, it is worth mentioning that you can see the additional non-LED components inside of the tubing from a fair distance indoors. this may bug some people. get a colored or frosted tube version if thats your deal.
