Hunter 27218 Energy-Efficient 22-Watt Low-Profile Light Kit, White



Efficient light
This light is great, except for the design. If you intend on using the pull chain to turn the light on and off, the way it's designed, it will wear the paint off the light fixture in short order, unless you're willing to lift the chain way up and pull it straight out. Other than that design flaw, the light works great, throws good light evenly. They should require the engineers who design these things to use them in real life before they sell them.

Bright, Energy Efficient
Despite the sketchy instructions, the light kit was easy to install on a Hunter fan that I purchased locally. My guess is that people with little experience with wiring and light fixture installation may need some help from someone who is handy. When I installed the fan I did end up calling Hunter's help line with a wiring question. I was on hold for a long time, but when I did get through, the agent was helpful and knowledgeable. Don't forget that there is a pull-chain switch on the fan itself. I turned on the light at the wall switch, and for a few minutes could not figure out why it didn't work.

nice,simple, clean design
I bought two of these light kits for fans in bedrooms. I wanted something that just blended into the ceiling as much as possible. The light is bright enough for the room, and the fans work great!
