I took a quick look and here's what i noticed...
Not UL or CSA
Using blemished or factory seconds diodes.
A couple different claims of lumen output.
Chinese made with big USA flags because the warehouse is in the USA. Seems shady.
5 year warranty from a seller that wont be around in 5 years.
No documentation of any claims.

You can do better.
Good luck,
CD

Cybrdyke nailed it. That is what is on eBay. Besides, I hate that 6000K "daylight" blue. I won't go over 4100K soft white. But that's just me. There is one more legit certifying approval called ETL. I will buy with any of these but steer clear of unapproved stuff.

mine arent "blue" and actually look quite nice and white.. I'm planning on ordering another 10 after the first of the year... I just missed a sale on them for $8.50 each..

I'm going to run 15 or 16 total in my 20x20, with another 8 lights under my carport..

I ordered mine from ebay seller 2014sophiechang.

I hate installing lights, much less reinstalling them over and over again. I'd personally prefer to spend a little more to make sure I'm not fooling around with cheap lights the rest of my life. In a year when they start going out, you will be replacing them with another style and its going to look like patchwork.

Also, safety certifications are an absolute minimum requirement as far as I am concerned.
