More expensive than other brands, but you get what you pay for!
Let me start by saying that I have owned several of these toilet lights over the past two years. All have failed at some point. When these kinds of lights were first introduced, I jumped on board and bought the only brand available. It was junk. As more Chinese companies began making their versions, I bought replacement after replacement only to have those fail as well. Some of the real cheap ones had suction cups that attached the sensor to the toilet, Those always fell off. Other has really thin hangers to hang the sensor on the side of the bowl. Those would always fall off because the hanger arm was just too flimsy. The last one of these I owned just stopped working because the battery terminals somehow became misaligned and would no longer recognize the batteries inserted into them. Scrambling for a replacement, I came upon this product by LumiLux. What inspired me were the many 4 and 5-star reviews. In fact, as of this review posting, the overall review satisfaction stands at 90%. You won't see that on competing products. I didn't mind paying a little more for the LumiLux. It's true, you get what you pay for! I could immediately see that this was a better-constructed product than all the previous models I had owned before. The best aspect of this product is its attachment arm. It's not flimsy. It actually has a nice, strong bend that allows the sensor to be firmly held in place. Unlike the cheaper brands, this one gives you 16 color choices, a color cycling option, and even brightness settings. Been using this for several weeks now and it performs flawlessly. It won't come on when the bathroom light is on. It properly senses movement in the bathroom and automatically turns on the light then turns it off soon after I leave the room. In other words, it works as expected. While I still feel that this is one of the most unsanitary products you can buy, its overall appeal and effectiveness make that notion less concerning. If you are going to buy a light for your toilet, don't go cheap. I would spend a bit more money and go with the LumiLux.
