Interesting. Price per fixture isn't much more than replacement 1141/1156 bulbs.
At 580 lumens, each fixture is approximately equivalent to a 50 watt 120VAC household screw-base incandescent bulb or a bit brighter than two 1141 bulbs. (Not quite as bright as two 1156 bulbs.)
A little more than 1/2 amp per fixture. (I'd use 1 amp for wiring and circuit protection device sizing.)
I like the three-way switch -- both sides (580 lumens) on, one side (290 lumens) on, or all off. (This is sometimes called 'step dimming,' although that usually applies to more than two light levels.)
Being a cantankerous, old fart with 'carved in stone' opinions, I'd refer wall mounted to fixture mounted switches. (I'd be interested in seeing a picture of the underside, see how difficult it'd be to shift control to a wall mounted switch ... shouldn't be difficult.)
The nine yellow rectangles in the fifth and sixth images are the LED SMDs, presumably for a total of 18 per fixture. (No, it's not really possible to modify the fixtures for more than two levels of step dimming. The SMDs are probably mounted on printed circuit boards and modifying PCB traces and drilling new connections are difficult. Otherwise, six levels in 97 lumen increments would be possible.)
