Vaccus Chrome effect 6 Lamp Ceiling light

I bought this lamp due to it's pleasant stylish appearance and potential brightness. I'm very happy with it overall.
However some light emits from the inner ends of the LED's inside the housing (on the upper face). This stray light is very visible through any small gap between the housing and the ceiling. Very irritating and spoilt the look.
I made & fitted a soft seal on the housing's upper edge to block out the stray light.
Mine looks fine now but minor details like this should've been thought of at the design stage.

Nice looking lamp, the shaped LED style is refreshingly different from a standard hanging pendant plus shade. Looks even nicer in real life than the picture on the website. Even switched off it looks good!

It's easy to fit. There's a U-shaped bracket that screws into the ceiling and joist above, and the lamp then slots into the bracket and is tightened with a couple of screws. If replacing a loop-in ceiling rose you'll need to tuck the existing loop wiring into a junction box and bring out just the live and neutral to the lamp. If you do this, fit the L/N to the lamp first and then the junction box. I did it the other way round and it was a bit of a pain trying to hold the lamp and the wires in the right place with one hand and then screw it together with the other.

The lamp is very bright - I'd say brighter than a 150W incandescent bulb. I fitted it into a double bedroom and it's like daylight. Be aware, it's not dimmable, it's for lighting a room not mood lighting. Light colour is white with a touch of yellow - much whiter than the CFL it replaced and, in my opinion, a better quality of light.
My lamp is fitted towards one edge of the room and the other side of the room is noticeably dimmer, not detrimentally so because the thing is so bright anyway, but be aware that the light spread is predominantly downwards, with some light sideways and very little up to be reflected off the ceiling.

There are no replaceable parts. When the lamp reaches the end of its life the whole unit will need to be replaced. If it lasts for the stated 20,000 hours then that's about 11 years with 5 hours use a day which seems acceptable to me.

All in all, very pleased with the lamp, my bedroom ceiling looks very modern, I'll have to update the rest of the room now!

Easy to install! Great style and super bright light! Wonder how much the consumption is in watt?

The earth is really difficult to get at, and there is only a very small choc-box connector for (L & N), so if your ceiling rose is the junction box for the switch, you will need another connector for the switch wire. I wish they would put more design into the bits you cannot see. Also the mains wire is touching the screw you do up last. It would only take a small bur to cause an issue. A bright soft light, better diffused than most, so nice for a living or dining room. Although it says 2700 lumens, I think someone has just done a sum, rather than actually testing it. I would say about 1600 lumens at best , and the light is only cast down, so good over a dinner table, but you'll need more lighting if you have anything on the walls. I have marked it low on most stuff, but the main thing is that it looks nice.

Loved the style and brightness. Very easy to install and light weight. The only small miss for me was if the light was white light it would have been just right for me. But the light is yellow. Not a big issue.... Product is very well made
