Wow, spectacular! ***UPDATE*** see the comments. Some purchasers now are receiving units without a plug (just bare wire), though mine shipped with a standard 3 prong plug. Also, the seller has put new pictures up, which do show the bare wire. My rating is for the unit WITH plug.Ordered this light to use for a small fish tank (3 gallons). I was debating between this one and a similar non-color 10 watt LED (only a few dollars cheaper, but had many positive reviews). Overall, I am extremely pleased with this purchase. Here’s the details:-Shipped in a small beat up box with no packaging/insulation, but the LED light itself is very rugged and shows no signs of wear.-Lamp is an industrial gray color, kind of ugly on top of my fish tank but would probably fit in well outdoors mounted on your siding. That said, the housing is small enough that it doesn’t stand out.-seems quite water proof/rugged. At least it hasn’t had issues with significant splash from my fish…-It’s compact, about the size of a large orange (though box shaped, obviously) and surprsingly light weight (the bulk of the device seems to be a heat sink in the back)-It doesn’t get too hot on the front surface, certainly remains “touchable” after hours of use. Even the back surface is not too hot to be dangerous to a toddler’s hand.-It’s actually 3 LEDs – red, green, and blue. When all are lit it appears white. Differentially adjusting the brightness seems to allow a multitude of colors, from pure green/blue/red to shades of purple/yellow/etc. But I suspect it is slightly less bright than a single white LED. That said, it’s really bright (I guestimate equivalent to a 70 watt incandescent light bulb)-the white light is nice and white. Not too blue, not too yellow. But if you don’t like it, there’s a light blue and light yellow color choice as well-there’s a remote control with some nice functionality: -choose from the different color options (but you can’t fine tune the color options, just the choices on the remote) -three brightness settings (but the different brightness levels are slightly different colors, for example bright white is more bluish and low white is more yellowish) -choose if the LED light should scroll through the colors (in rainbow order), and if so if it should step between colors or fade gradually (several options) -turn the light on/offThe only negative I’ve found so far is that the remote is the ONLY way to control the light. There is no physical switch. Also, the light does not seem to reset to a more natural white default when powered down, so don’t lose the remote when the LED is in rainbow strobe mode…Otherwise I am very happy with this, but not nearly as happy as my toddler (who thinks I can magically change the color of his fish tank).

You get to supply your own plug First off, the seller is very helpful and if you need additional information or to swap your product don’t hesitate to contact them, you will find them very responsive.Since this is a world-wide product they elected to not put a plug on the short cord that comes off the back of the light. You can wire it into a wall/ceiling box or you can add a local plug for any power source 85v to 245v (AC). If you don’t feel confident doing this type of wiring this seller has the product with a longer cord and US plug for sale at a slightly higher price.I now use this light in my shop to test lighting effects on some of the smaller props and backdrops I build. This unit’s flexibility beats using single color party lights but it casts only as much light as one of my 25 watt incandescent lights – at least I don’t have to change bulbs to change colors. I don’t see much difference between “Strobe” and “flash” both just cycle the colors quickly; same with “Fade” and “smooth” just a longer cycle time. Also I don’t notice much difference when changing the intensity settings; but that’s okay since it is rather dim for my purposes and I just leave it at full bright all the time (and turn all other lights off for each test). And YES the white is slightly pink but I already have white lights in the shop so that’s no factor.If you are wondering, controllers for other LED lights that look the same as this one will not work on this and vice-versa; so if you have a few varieties of remote controlled LED systems keep track of the controllers – there’s no universal remote control for these (yet).
