LED Remote Control Picture Light Cordless –Light Antique Brass Hue – for Pictures up to 3 feet Wide- Safe for Artwork – No UV and NO Heat – Solid Steel Frame 1.3 lbs – Dimmer Included

O.K., I am an old lady and a particular one at that. I just moved to a new home 1,200 miles away and in a much more rural setting that before. When I needed to install my antique oil painting, I spoke to the man who was doing some remodeling for me. I explained that I needed to hard-wire lighting for this painting on a wall that did not have any electrical outlets or wiring to tie into. He explained all that it would take to get the job done and gave me an estimated price, along with telling me about poking holes in dry-wall and patching them and fishing electrical wires. I also knew that the painting, without good lighting just wasn't going to cut it on that wall. Local electrical suppliers did not have a solution for me, but one suggested a battery powered remote controlled light, but they didn't have one in stock. I turned to Amazon. I knew that they would have one available. Sure enough, I ordered it, it was delivered. Installation was a breeze. One simple screw in the wall was all it took. Now I have good lighting over the painting and I am a happy woman. I ordered the light antique brass housing and it looks extremely good. The painting is only about 20 niches wide and about 14 inches tall, but when the light is on that painting comes alive. I think you will be happy with this lighting fixture.

For the money, this LED lamp is relatively attractive, and illuminates pretty well with an incandescent-like tinge . It avoids heat/UV damage issues that could occur with a halogen light placed as close to the art work displayed as this product. Had to switch the placement of it from the center top to the bottom of the art frame in order for the light to be sufficient to adequately shine on the important bottom half of the painting subject displayed. In effect, screwed to the bottom of the art frame shining upward, it lights the art work much as if it were a mantel light. The plastic housed remote control seems to work well from across a modest size room. Although the lighting intensity can be increased/decreased by 4 settings from the remote, in practice, only the brightest intensity setting really displays the art work adequately. Did not have any problems inserting the 4 D size batteries into the plastic housing or screwing to the back of the frame, however top screw may penetrate the front of a thin frame or frame arm weight "lean on" the top of the frame leaving a mark, so it should be carefully placed and inspected for positioning first before mounting. Care should be taken to avoid snapping off the plastic cover where the batteries are inserted. Can't say how long the batteries will last, but have been lighting the art work for 3-4 hours a day for a few weeks, and have not noticed any decrease in lighting power. This lamp, while adequate for lighting a relatively modest size picture, should not be purchased if the art work to be lighted is more than 20 inches long or 12 inches high, considering that a frame surrounding the work will take up an additional three to four inches of space all around. However, although it sounds strange (and might look that way too), for a taller vertical oriented picture, a purchaser might consider acquiring two lamps, to hang one each on the center top and bottom of the art frame, to give extra illumination to the work being displayed.

I wasn't sure what to expect after reading some of the reviews; however, it had everything I was looking for so I tried it. I'm so glad I did. From the communication with Robert Marketing to the product itself, I couldn't ask for more. The item installed easily and perfectly, it's sturdy, the remote works great, and the 5 light settings are a nice unexpected treat. I can't comment on battery life because I've not had it long enough but can report back. I will be purchasing another for another piece of artwork. Thank you.

worked fine until i switched it to another painting literally fell apart dont buy theres better out there very disappointed

My painting is 33" wide and 45" tall. It is in dark blues, so I wanted a light to brighten it up in the evenings. This one barely covers 1/3 of the canvas. I initially ordered the antique brass to go with my gold frame, but when it arrived it clearly looked silver. I returned it (2nd shipping charge) to the seller in exchange for the polished brass, which is very nice looking and arrived quickly. The remote is great, and has a dimmer. So although I might recommend this for a smaller painting, in my case I just have to chalk it up to a bad purchasing decision.

Avery nice item but it is not in the color you advertised. You advertised antique brass but the item I received is in an antiqued chrome or silver color. It certainly is not antique brass. In addition the light source is a bit too garish.

This light is just perfect when you don't have access to an electrical outlet. I have a 56-inch frame with the actual artwork about 48 inches wide. This light washes over it well and looks fantastic since it's really not busy towards the edges anyway. It's meant to showcase the art, not light up the entire room. I agree with Ken... I too had to take it apart and tighten the nut in the center of the light since it was spinning when I inserted the batteries. This didn't bother me much, it was pretty easy to do. I chose to mount to the frame, not the wall. The remote made the sale because I refuse to climb on the couch to reach a switch. I have been looking for the right light at the right price for a long time, and I am very happy with my purchase. There are other lights out there which are wider, but use the same exact bulb as this one.
