Is the light really BRIGHT when on at night? Say mounted in the overhead compartment kind of by your eyes?

It's bright, but not blinding. Just enough to let you know it's on. I have mine mounted in my jeep for my auxiliary lights. They are perfect.

It is bright, but it isn't designed to stare at the light. It provides a lot of light for its size and is easy to store when it isn't needed. I have two of them and really appreciate how much light they produce.

It is bright enough as long as you have additional ambient lighting near. I have a 3 light fixture above my wall mirror and a small led spotlight in the ceiling above. This mirror has worked out great for me so far.

Not sure the lumens but it is on *whenever* I ride -- day or night. On high blinky in the dark it is annoying, but during the day I leave it on that setting and it seems to get attention.

Yes, but I doubt you'll find it too bright. It is a very low light. More of a glow than a light really.

It is bright enough to be seen during the day, especially if you have it on a flashing mode. It is very visible as night comes on.

yes, the light has 2 levels of bright. It's nice. The face of the unit is plastic with a glass window. Be careful of cleaning, not to scratch the face, if you choose black.

It is bright enough. It progressively lights depending on how low or high you want it. It's like the IKEA one. I love it!

IT isn't too bright.I wish it was brighter. I do like it as a travel mirror so I'm going to figure out how to make it work before my trip.It's a good size , though not like my everyday mirror ,not too heavy to put in a carry on bag. Again, I do wish it was brighter.

The lights on this unit are EXTREMELY bright. I have electrical tape over them to keep from being visible during low-light watching.

The low setting is pretty bright. I wouldn't be able to get to sleep if it was on right next to me.

It is bright, but I wouldn't say "very". The light is also focussed on the spot it is aimed at, so of course it won't directly light the area outside of the focus. I don't know about the mount being on the side.

Yes it is,but barely. You have to be standing in front of it to see it. I bought it in hopes it was better than the on board illuminator that is built in to my night vision scope. It was not.

It is a very bright light but you are not supposed to look directly at it. Bright enough that it is difficult to look directly at it even on the "low" setting. It is meant to sit off to the side of you and only for a half hour to an hour.
