1. I have 32 of these panels sitting in front of me. They cost me $4.88 each
2. A diffuser panel simply KILLS the light output of an led panel.
3. The adhesive is suitable for a postage stamp not for a light panel. Use GOOP.
4. The lighting is DIRECTIONAL, far less so than a fluorescent tube fixture.
5. Directional lighting is wonderful for over a stove.
6. When I am cooking, I like to see rendered in sunlight grade color temperature. 3,500K yellow is wonderful to hide stains on the furniture, awful to cook with (IMHO)
7. With a single fixture over the stove I would like to have 3-4 panels lit in the fixture. With multiple fixtures of course fewer per fixture but equal in total count. Four total.
Some people function well under high pressure sodium grade amber lighting. I do not. When doing nothing at all but daydreaming or sipping cocktails 3,500K is excellent. But it helps to remember small fluorescent fixtures emit light in the 5,000K range.
