I bought 4 of these for our kitchen:

3 of them have failed, and Amazon have agreed that I should return the
lot, including the replacements I bought.

They are circular panels (36W 3240LM 4000K). In retrospect, they are a
bit too bright, so I'd settle for lower wattage. These ones allegedly
have a 20,000 hour lifespan.

Can anyone recommend some reliable lights that look similar, but
actually work, please
I use one of these to simulate daylight and stop me sleeping at night
time when I'm supposed to be eyes-on-stalks....

I think with these type of things, there will be a minimum of two
purchases per fitting per customer, for establishment of the right light
level, given that - how else do ye do it?

I previously installed the 18w version - which made the office paperwork
hard to read.

If some are not returned then the manufacturer profits must be huge!
