    Here's the TV offer. Total Value $100 -- I don't think so!You may have seen them advertised on television. On TV they sell them as four Quik Brite LED Lights which “double” to a set of 8 LED lights "if you order right away!". Then they throw in two “Bonus” Swivel Spots Quik Brite lights. The lights use a small stick-on magnet to automatically turn on when you open any drawer or cabinet - off when you close it! Although the ad says: “No installation” you do have topeel and place the LED’s and magnets in proper alignment so they turn on and off automatically! But they are good to use in closets, medicine cabinets, fuse boxes, tool boxes, anywhere you need a bit of light. The 2 tap-on SwivelSpots are supposed to go from mini floodlights to mini spotlights. But they’re single not-very-bright LED’s, so that change isn’t very dramatic. The swivel spots do swivel around a full 360 degrees! Marketing of these lights is all over the place. They’re about $15 via TV, and only about $8 on Amazon. I found a set of 10 at Bed, Bath & Beyond on a special deal for only $3. At the $3 price I’m sure they’re all gone! But at $8 they’re still under a buck each & it includes batteries! That's still a good deal.
