Aaron, I heard you can buy some inexpensive LED lights at Sam's Club. Are the ones you bought really as bright as they claim. I am interested in getting some. The reviews that I have read is that they are somewhat dim.

Aaron Baranoff

We don't have Sam Club near me. The brightness is technically what they claim the light is different, think bright LED flashlight. Narrow harsher feel. But, bright enough for where I am using them.
