Like everyone else, the blue lights were too bright. I was going to rate this as 2 stars, but then I figured out that by cutting the white wire going to the switch, I could "disable" the blue light. That made these acceptable. Otherwise, these lights look good and are bright enough for reading or lighting up a very dark room. They're not bright, but it's enough light to walk around when aimed at the ceiling. I'm including pictures of the wire I cut and what it looks like without the blue light surrounding the switch.
