    The lights would be OK if they simply made them diffuse, low-intensity bulbs like they used to be in the 90’s. Bonus points for being behind a transparent textured plastic lens.

    But no, they simply put open holes in casings that expose the most powerful SMD LED chip they could source.

      It is the most powerful until you specifically want to buy led torch light then they put the cheapest possible light in it.

        Of course. The bright one all got bought up by Philips so you get a red LED when your smart light bulb is off or some shit.
