Do the twin halogen lights on this hood provide sufficient illumination (since they are located so close to the wall side) and do they dim?

Fair enough lighting, but haven't tried installing dimming, so not sure - no option to dim built in. Like he good overall!

Yes. We installed our lights facing down. They look great. We were also able to find some smaller 40 watt size bulbs without the bulb imprint marking showing on the bottom of the bulb.

They look nice as long as your main light is not turned on, but once you do it the halo is almost not visible. Also do not expect HID, these are normal HALO lights

The picture looks deceptive. They are not dim. Just use a higher wattage bulb and you will achieve the brightness your looking for.

I can't answer that as I mounted the lights away from the wall, about 1 1/2" back from the front edge of the upper cabinets. I thought mounting like this put the light closer to the working areas of the countertop below and minimized shadows from anything on the counter top (like the coffee maker). I can tell you these lights are very bright and we often use just these and not our overhead lights when working in the kitchen. Also, they are so small and thin, you can put them about anywhere without seeing them. We've had them installed over a year now and they still work perfectly. For under cabinet lighting, I would highly recommend these.

I have the halogen 10W bulbs. It is almost a matter of preference. I have them along my driveway which is curvy to mark the outline. Those are on the outside edge of split rail fence at the vees. They are about 14 feet apart. On a gravelled path I have them about 10 feet apart and they seem to illuminate sufficiently.

They are very bright. In fact, I added a dimmer to tone them down when not working under the cabinets

They are bright enough. However, I've been having problems with visible pulsating when the lights are dimmed below 60%. Not totally noticeable with the naked eye, but the pulsating appears on the video in post production.

Yes the led lights do dim normally. They have been working great for 3 years now.

I have two of these lights and they are rather dim. I wouldn't use them as a light at a main entrance because they may not be bright enough. Hope this answers your inquiry. Gail Hampe, Muncy, PA

yes, they are very, very bright, so one light for one side wound be plenty. I have had no problem with mine since installing several months ago.

I might add that they are bright enough that if you have a seating area that is below cabinet height (my living room is next to the kitchen), looking directly at the bulbs may not be comfortable. I put mine in a track with a plastic cover to make them look more decorative and to soften the light from the individual bulbs. If you never get below cabinet height, it isn't an issue though. To me they are bright enough to work on the counter (as long as ambient kitchen light is available) at maximum setting, but they aren't halogen bright for sure. At their dimmest they make a soft night light for late night runs to the kitchen.

Yes... Low accent light until motion then downward facing spotlight lights path with movement. They work great.

Depending on how you plan on setting them up, on house facing down, underneath, shining from side? I used them for accent lighting, casting on my brick on my house mounted in the fascia. But, they do put out a fair amount of light.

I guess it does--e.g., the LEDs seem to be on the fans, so if they are on.... However, I will add that my case sits near my knees--on the floor--and I really haven't noticed the lighting; it's pretty dim.

Hi Chris, I purchased these a couple years ago, because there were so inexpensive and dimmable. To answer your question, yes, they did, and they dim quite well. They also lasted a long time. BUT, from a quality of dimming perspective, they are not top notch.... they hum a little ( not much ) , and the only dim down to a certain point. For the price that I paid, I would have given them 5 stars, but overall in today's market, I would only give 3.5 stars. Hope that helps....

Yes and no. Limited levels of dimming at low levels. At a certain point they just shut off. It's decent though. Though if you have any halogen bulbs in the track, they will be much dimmer at the same level.
