Amazingly well made, very tactile and responsive, cool lighting effects.

I've looked high and low for a good quality mechanical keyboard.  I use my keyboard a LOT.  I have to replace one every few months - keys stop working - but more often - the white printing on the black keys wears off.  I have a problem with numb finger tips on five fingers, so often have to look at the keyboard while typing.  I'm also a gamer and use a combination of keyboard and controller.

What I really like about the keyboard: positive "clicky" keys. If you're old school and ever used an IBM selectric keyboard - or typewriter - this has the same feel and sound. The backlight intensity can be adjusted, from off to bright in several steps.  The colors can't be changed, but you can select solid or various motion patterns. I have it on solid. I also prefer to game in the dark, so that makes it really easy to see the keys.  The keyboard does not need any special drivers - all the programming is done on the keyboard.  It's also SOLID. It weighs an even two pounds - as opposed to 8 oz of my previous keyboard.  The aluminium faceplate looks cool and is reflective as well.  Even the feed and anti-skid pads are beefed up.

If I had to find anything to complain about, it's some of the letters and numbers. It's a non-standard font so it takes a little while to realize what some of the keys are The , and . are almost identical, the 0  looks like [ ] and so on.  On the other hand, it does add a modern look to it.

Although this is called a gaming keyboard, I use it 95% of the time for non-gaming. It supports both 6KRO and NKRO (basically how many keys can be pressed at once.) 6KRO is the standard (6 key roll over) and means that 6 keys can be depressed at once. NKRO has no limit, but some computers may not boot correctly with that option. Nice option to have, but one few people will use.

I've spent $100 for a keyboard and $20. This is by far the nicest one I've ever had.  Free sample provided for honest review.  I'll update in a few months!

The improvements in LED technology, continues to be impressive for all types of lighting, including headlamps.  Providing light in several modes, and also featuring dimmable LED's, Divine LED's SE series headlamp is an extremely versatile performer, in a wide variety of situations.

Designed in the USA and made in China, this headlamp is powered by three AAA batteries, and features floodlight, spotlight, and red light modes.  Maximum output is stated as 90 lumens, but seems brighter than that.  Light color is a nice cool white.  Although two LED's are employed in the floodlight mode, the light distribution pattern still appears to be quite circular.

A headlamp with different light levels or light patterns is not unique, but what makes the SE series special is that the LED's are dimmable.  The included instructions are not too clear, and figuring out how the controls work could be a little tricky, but when you are in the correct mode, holding down the power button for an extended period causes the light output to cycle up and down.  With a little experimentation, you should be able to adjust the light output to your liking.

Another very nice feature is the headlamp hinge, which is really well constructed, and seems built to last.  It firmly clicks through each position, locking into place with virtually no chance that the headlamp would accidentally click to another position.

The only real issues I found, was that the build quality is a little rough in spots.  The battery contacts were not aligned properly, so a couple of the batteries had a tendency to pop out.  This issue goes away, once you manage to get the compartment closed.  The power button is sealed against moisture, but there would be more security if the battery compartment had a gasket.

Despite a few minor blemishes, the Divine LED headlamp still deserves a 5 star rating.  The wide distribution is great for general tasks.  Most LED's are dimmable, and it's something of a breakthrough that Divine LED has been able to make this feature available in a headlamp.

A sample was provided for evaluation, and as a frequent headlamp user, I was very pleased to use a dimmable headlamp for the first time.

Excellent mechanical keyboard with a nice light typing feel that's still distinctly mechanical without the full tactile feedback.

Right away you will notice this is well manufactured product due to the detail and care put into the retail packaging and branding. The very nice printed retail box is clearly marked with the keyboard specifications, system requirements and package contents on the back. Additionally a small promotional blurb about the keyboard is printed in several languages on the back as well.

Once opened you'll find the keyboard nicely wrapped in a plastic sleeve with the wrapped braided cord wound with two included Velcro cable straps and neatly tucked in to the insert compartment. Removing the insert, you'll find another plastic sleeve with the quick installation manual that's written very clearly with great illustrations in multiple languages. You will also find two nifty Gamdias decals (bonus) and a key removal tool.

The "HERA" software installation media is not provided, but it is readily available through the manufacturer website for quick download.

I measured the weight of the keyboard at a hefty 2lbs 8oz. Certainly not light, but it's what you would expect from a good mechanical keyboard.

There are 2 lighting modes. They are both monochrome with the first being solid at 30% brightness, 60% brightness and 100% brightness. The second mode is a monochrome breathing mode that breathes at one speed. These lighting settings are accessed by using the "FN" key and pressing "8" or "2" on the numeric keypad.

Typing is nice and light but still gives you the feeling of a more traditional mechanical keyboard. It is just as audible ("clicky") as them as well. Some folks might not like the lack of a true "click" or tactile response, but I actually prefer this feel.

Programming macros are quick and simple and they are easily accessed using the "FN" button and numbered 1-6 keys. There are two macro programming modes, "G1" and "G2". You can also lock out certain keyboard keys like the Windows key and F1-F11 keys while in "Game" mode.

The one thing that I wish was an option is to allow the "FN" key on the left to operate like a normal Windows Key. Many of the keyboard shortcuts that I use involve the Windows key which is more easily combined with the left one, for example "Show Desktop" using "Windows Key + D" or open "Windows File Explorer" using "Windows Key + E". Naturally it's easier to perform that action on the left hand entirely.

All in all I do feel like this is a bargain mechanical keyboard with outstanding build quality. While it may not be as fancy or offer as many programmable macro functions as other gaming keyboards on the market, this is a very suitable keyboard for normal productivity work and some light to moderate game play. In fact this entire review was written using the device and really enjoy using it.

I must disclose that I did receive this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. The above comments and attached photos are my own and a result of real use and testing. I do my best to evaluate the product thoroughly and provide as much detail as possible to help potential customers with any questions that they may have. Hopefully you will find this review helpful as well.

Just installed these and am very impressed.  The overall quality is quite nice and they give of just the appearance overall daytime appearance we were looking for.  As I've had similar lights in the past, these weren't much different to install.  In regards to the motion sensor, you do have the option to wire a pair of these independent of one another, in a Master / Slave config (one motion sensor controls both lights), or in a Master / Master config (either motion sensor will trip both lights).

Currently I'm running 100W Reveal bulbs for a nice crisp white light effect.  As I pointed out in a comment to a previous review, Heath - Zenith engineers advise they only CFL's which will work in these (in regards to the dual dimming) are GE and Phillips Brand Dimmable CFL's.  These two brands market dimmible CFL's that are considered "full spectrum dimming" or 0-100% rather than the generic brand CFL that is labeled 10-100 and only dims to either 10% or 100% and nowhere in between.  Another note I was advised of is apparently LED bulbs are hit or miss in these lights due to the developing technology.  And finally, although it may appear the photocell is located in the plastic dome on the underside of the light, it is actually embedded in the motion sensor. Hope this tidbit saves someone some frustration trying to test these in the daylight using a regular CFL!

These facts all came from a phone call I made to Heath - Zenith tech support, which I must say, I was very happy with.  The guy I talked with was obviously not in an outsourced call center and was extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

All in all, I'm very impressed with the quality and consistency of these lights and look forward to years of lighting enjoyment.

Very cool versatile light.  I AM SO IMPRESSED!  These are neat, look amazing and the remote rocks!

I purchased this light along with a lavalamp for some atmosphere for my apartment.  This light is incredible.  My girlfriend and I both enjoy the incredible light show on our walls produced by this light.  It reminds us of being underwater and seing the light reflected off of ocean waves - Both of us want to purchase additional lamps of different colors to place in each corner of the room.  It's the reflection that's great - looking at the lamp itself isn't that exciting and I wish it didn't have the word crayon written on the glass tube.  With that said, I never thought I would like something so gimmicky, but this lamp is absolutely amazing and has produced a very romantic atmosphere for my pad - I would rate it MUCH better than a lavalamp.

Very cool, super nice with or without the light on.

This thing is pretty spectacular. The edges of the metal sculpture do feel a tad sharp, but nothing that should cause injury or anything. The unit is larger than expected, which was actually a nice surprise. Installation is basically just hanging it in direct sunlight, then flipping the switch to On. I hung it in the morning, and that night, it came on as expected. The colors are great and look especially good at night. The packaging is frustration free, and has a nice product image. This would make a great gift. It's mesmerizing to look at and I love the cool effect. I was given this free in exchange for an honest review.

These were amazing. From the moment I opened the package everything looked very professional, they stick to surfaces great and the remote is very accurate. They've served their purpose and were overall a fine piece of hardware to accent my gaming workstation and would definitely recommend it to a friend.

Thank you for the superb LEDs and hope you keep on delivering high quality products!

Through most of my professional career, Ive had the pleasure of being able to travel for some of my work. Its been a great experience and taken me places that I otherwise wouldnt have been able to see. It can be somewhat trying though when you have work to be done and you don't have the correct environment to work in. For example, working on a plane can be difficult if you don't have proper lighting, but fortunately, the wonderful designers at elago have come up with a crafty little solution  Flexible LED Work Light.
The Flexible LED Work Light sports a bright, USB powered light that allows you to work when you don't have the light you need. Sometimes the backlight on your laptop just isn't enough and it isn't good for your eyes, either. So, the little light can help guide you through the dark.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
My first thoughts out of the box were how nice and compact this device is. Its USB cable is wrapped into a gooseneck style neck. When the neck is curled up, the light only takes up a space about 6 x 4, but it extends to be 20 inches long. I was instantly impressed with this wonderful little worklight. Its strong enough to produce the light I need to keep my eyes from feeling tired while staying out of the way of my keyboard.

UTILITY
As is indicated by the product description, this LED light is powered by USB. It is not chargeable and must be plugged in to work. I started by plugging in the light into my MacBook Pro. At first, I was a bit concerned about power drain, but after about 20 minutes of active use on my laptop, I noticed the battery had only dropped about 1%. Because it uses LED lights and they are rated to last about 50,000 hours with use, it stands to reason that it will continue to consume very little power.
Next, I thought, If the light just has to be USB powered, couldn't I plug it into a spare battery? So, I grabbed one of my external battery packs and plugged it in. Low and behold, it lit up. So, that means you aren't just confined to using it with your laptop, you can plug this little, power-lite LED work light into a battery pack and have light where every you need it.

One thing that tripped me up at first was the power button. Its located at the tip of the lamp and you barely tap it for the light to turn on. This got me at first because I thought the lamp would simply come on when it was plugged in.
I also ran into a small issue when I was testing. There was a point where I couldn't get the lamp to turn on at all and thought that perhaps I had a poor wiring connection or a faulty unit. However, I quickly discovered that the issue was that the connection was loose between the lamp and the 3.5mm jack that it connects to. As it turns out, the developer made it so that the LED work light could be broken into several pieces for travel. But, if the connection isn't good, you might experience what I did.

CONCLUSION
The Flexible LED Work Light from elago is a wonderful addition to your accessory toolbox. I would recommend it to anyone who travels or who works in less than favorable work conditions with low lighting. Its a powerful, flexible work light that will certainly help your workflow.

The sample I received to review has a round base as well as a clamp-on base, giving you quite a bit of location flexibility. The box includes what is supposed to be a 40 watt equivalent bulb that is brighter than the 60 watt equivalent bulb I have in another lamp. Talk about a handy desk lamp, this would be an excellent project lamp with the brightness it supplies. The build of the lamp is solid, with strong arms and springs where they need to be. The corners are adjustable with adjustable stiffness. The black color adds a sophisticated look to the overall feel, and goes with just about anything. The only drawback I could find is that the on/off switch, for some strange reason, is about two feet down the power cord from the base which makes it unreachable if you run the power cord behind a desk, cabinet, or nightstand. If I could, I would knock a half a star off for the switch location, but overall I like the lamp so much otherwise, that I'm giving it all five stars.

Just got this lamp and must admit I am impressed.so far. The lamp arrived two days early, was intelligently packaged and easy to set up. I hadn't even realized it was rechargeable or ran via USB when I ordered it so was pleasantly surprised to discover this and an AC USB input adapter that I can also use for my phone. The lamp has three brightness levels that provide sufficient illumination for my work area without the need for other lights in the room. The flexible neck adjusts to an infinite number of positions, and the color-changing LED base is a nice touch and adds a pleasant glow. I wish the base were a little heavier to make the lamp seem sturdier, but it does not appear to be in danger of tipping. Etekcity also included a well-sealed microfiber cleaning cloth with the lamp, a nice touch.

Product Update: A month later and this lamp is still working great with no problems whatsoever. i have come to appreciate its light weight and portability. The ability to use it without an electrical fixture with no heavy or in-the-way electrical cord is brilliance. I also like the fact that it can be recharged with a USB cord and that the same cord also recharges my phone, which cuts down on the cables and adapters I would otherwise have to stockpile,  carry around or have in an entangled mass on my desk. The infinite angles and positions available wit the flexible neck come in handy too, especially in tight spaces. I also like the way the LED gently and slowly cycles through its color pallette or can be set to one color or turned off entirely, used without the lamp, and that the lamp can be used without the LED if one prefers.  It's refreshing to come across such a well-designed and useful product, when it seems that pretty much everything available to consumers these days is lacking both quality and innovation and seems to be made by the cheapest methods using the cheapest materials possible. I am also surprised that Etekcity did not promote most of these features in the ad copy for this lamp. I am sure that more people would buy it if they were aware of them. I had never heard of Etekcity before, but can say in all honesty that not only would I purchase this lamp again if anything were to happen to it, I would have total confidence in the quality and performance of any product made by or bearing the name of this company.

This is a beautiful piece of art and a highly functional lighting choice; my eyes are happy with this. Provides good natural lighting with several choices for brightness, can be placed in multiple positions for best light with the swivel arm, and it is very well made. The color is a nice grey metal, very modern elegant look and there is a USB for easy access to charging your devices. Super purchase!

The clickiness of the keys are so pleasing. I tend to type hard, so the 45g actuation force as well as the mechanical switch on the keys were easy for me to adjust to. I love the fact that this is a programmable keyboard, which comes in handy when gaming. The USB port on the side of the keyboard has come in so handy, I rarely use my PCs ports anymore. Now for the back lighting. This thing is impressive with the range of color and pattern at which you can have your keyboard set. Absolutely LOVE this keyboard!

These are absolutely great! I was pleasantly surprised at the light output (not bad for 3 watts), the color (warm indeed), the apparent quality (they feel well-made and even look cool), and the way light is evenly spread, specially for ceiling lighting. And, of course, the very reasonable price. LED lighting is definitely crossing the line towards mass consumption...

These are standard form light bulbs, with the standard screw cap (so-called E27), which will fit many lamps and sockets. In that respect,
I also liked the smaller than expected size, which makes them even better suited for many applications.

BUT BE AWARE THEY ARE 12 VOLTS! Install them in a standard 110 volt system and they're FRIED! However, that is precisely what sets them apart from other LED light bulbs: they're a godsend for owners of alternate energy setups. I installed these in an off-the-grid cabin powered by solar energy, and now I can't wait to phase out all the rather rare, expensive, and not so ecologic CFL 12-volts bulbs (Phocus and Steca) that I have purchased over the years.

I only wish that there were 2 and even 1 watt versions. And I'd like to know if they're dimmable or not.

I installed them (I bought 2) only a week ago, so there remains the aspect of longevity, but I expect no problems there. I hope to report back in the future, but if I don't, please assume no news is good news.

I also bought a couple of 5-volts white bulbs (E27 5w 12v High-power White Light Bulb), for which I'll copy and modify this review.

Very well made, sturdy modifier. I'm really liking the light effects from this.  The included velcro straps are very nice, and I'm also using the included velcro band for attaching some home made barn doors.  Very happy with this purchase.
