I chose this new lighting kit from PHILED to use as a cupboard light but in fact, it has a range of uses including that of an under bed light

In the bag, you receive the 1m self-adhesive LED lighting strip, a UK power adapter, a combined motion detection sensor and control box, and a fixing kit consisting of a set of double-sided sticky pads. A small single sheet user guide is included but this is not needed as the installation is self explanatory. It is a pity no spare mounting pads are included, so be sure to get it right the first time.

Build quality all seems fine with nothing looking likely to fall off or fail any time soon. The whole kit is lightweight but well made enough to get the job done.

Installing is easy enough, everything comes with sticky mounts and everything you need is included in the pack.

The 8mm wide strip has a separate combined sensor and controller with a rotary dial to vary the time the light stays on between 10s - 15min but no way of limiting the 3m sensitivity range of the sensor or the brightness of the light. Although the LED strip cannot be extended it does have cut points so it can be trimmed to the length needed. The connecting cables are well made, long and robust. However, the rather thick LED cable can be a bit obtrusive and hard to conceal. One thing I don't like is that the LED strip uses a non-standard connector and swapping or extending it could be difficult. It is a pity that standard multi-pin strip connectors could not have been used. One good thing is that the LED strip has an easy to remove backing tape from the self-adhesive layer, unlike the last set I tested.

In place, the set looks good with a warm, bright, even and flicker free light. Take note that the 240 lumens light is indeed bright and has no option to dim it.

This is a simple, versatile and easy to use lighting kit although at £13.99 there are cheaper rivals, but this is a good kit and will get the job done for you.

The Good
Good Built Quality
Easy To Install

The Bad
No Brightness Control
Non-Standard Connector
No Remote Control
Expensive
