GlowRight Indoor Everywhere Light 3.0 review (VS version 2.0) 

Hopefully you get the newer 3.0 version which will have the eco/night mode, unlike me!

Thanks Ash, I appreciate that.

You should definitely try the eco mode. Even in busy areas mine seem to last at least two weeks.

Apparently the newer version of the 3.0s do have it. They really should have called them 4.0 or at least 3.5 to show the difference.

If the upgraded version includes the eco-mode that would be great - and means they are listening to customer feedback. I have seen other customers complaining about it. I've just now checked the support page and you are right - it does now include "Energy Motion Mode" (glowright.co/pages/support-indoor-everywhere-light-3). Although in the FAQ at the lower part of the page only includes the two modes under lighting modes. So there is clearly some confusion. So if accurate then the key question is whether those of us with the earlier versions of the 3.0 can do a firmware upgrade to include this ""Energy Motion Mode"? As my 6 x 3.0 lights only last a few days - and although the separate battery helps I would rather it only worked when required! Please do let us know if your lights arrive and this "Energy Motion Mode" function works.

@@parkesproductions Will do my friend as I've just ordered a couple.:)

@@paulwilkinson840 Looking forward to your update review! Just subscribe and turn on the notification to wait for your update :)

@@ryanyu5051 Hi, I can confirm that the updated lights do have the eco function where they only recognise the movement in the dark. Happy with them.

@@paulwilkinson840 Thanks for the update! Glad that they listen to customers.

The new versions of 3.0 seem to have the feature restored, but it was not in the original version. A bad mistake. But at least they have listened to customer feedback and restored it.

Yes the 2.0 version is great! Wish I could buy more. But I'm not sure what you mean by "program"? The settings are quite simple.

Forget to thank you for the this detail review. If I could watch your video before buying them, it would be better. Fortunately the products are worth it.

For my experience these days, I have a little different thought on the 3.0 (maybe it's because mine have the eco mode) 1. The battery life of the 3.0 is not bad (at least in my usage scenario and turn on the eco mode). The units I put on the stairs haven't got the second charge yet after the initial use which was a week ago. Will keep eyeing on them to see how the batter life going. 2. For the lights that I put in my kitchen which is a much more frequently usage, I charge them after about 5 days. But since I also bought the separate batteries, I just need to connect the backup batteries to the lights and they will keep working. This is a great option that I didn't realize how convenient it was. So my lights can always keep working with just a couple of backup batteries. 3. The magnets seem stable enough in my usage. I guess the reason why they change the 2.0's long magnet strip to the 3.0's two little pieces is for easier clean up if you want to peel the plates off your wall, because the 3.0's metal places take much less space. But certainly, it needs to be as strong as the 2.0's long magnet strip. Fortunately they are still stable now. I will update if anything happens. 4. The lighting is bright and looks good on eyes. I don't have the 2.0, but I have other old lights bought from Amazon. The glowright 3.0 just looks much more "expensive" for the color temp, the diffusion, and the overall looking.

That is good news for consumers if they have now upgraded 3.0 to have eco mode. I wonder if it is possible to do a firmware upgrade or whether they have changed the actual design.

@@ryanyu5051 Thanks for this! The light from my 3.0s is definitely less bright than the 2.0. But an additional problem I am having is that the microwave motion sensor is way too sensitive - it can detect movement in the next room through closed doors! This means that one of the lights I am changing the battery almost every day compared to over a month for the 2.0s! You are right that the 3.0 looks more expensive but I think the 2.0 lights are still better overall.

@@parkesproductions yeah, also interested about it

Actually, they are straight.

To clarify - the sit on magnet strips to frequently taken on and off so may not always be perfectly aligned. The wide angle lens used to show all three lights at once on the stair may exaggerate what appears to be misalignment but they look straight to the eye in person. I am quite particular about things like that.
