If you’re looking for lighting that doesn’t just “turn on,” but transforms the atmosphere of your home, patio or workspace, then Enbrighten deserves a serious look. From smart-outdoor string lights to modular hexagon panels for your gym or studio, Enbrighten delivers both form and function — and when you buy from them, you’re also supporting a brand dedicated to making a difference (50% of net profits are donated to charity).
In this review, I’ll walk you through what I like about Enbrighten’s offerings, highlight standout products, cover real-world usability and wrap up why now’s a smart time to try them (plus a few conversion-friendly nudges you’ll appreciate).
What makes Enbrighten different
When you compare lighting brands, you’ll often find either style without substance, or tech that’s big on features but lacking durability. Enbrighten strikes a balance: stylish lighting, robust construction, smart features and a social-good mission. A few things stand out:
- Durability + longevity: Take their Vintage LED Café Lights for example — impact-resistant acrylic bulbs, UL listing for indoor/outdoor use and a lifetime LED warranty.
- Smart integration: The Zigbee Plug-In Smart Switch offers dual controlled outlets, energy monitoring and works with Alexa/other hubs.
- Versatility for different spaces: Whether you want a cozy ambience on your patio, or bright white light for a home gym, Enbrighten covers that spectrum.
- Give-back ethos: The fact that half of net profits go to charity gives you the extra feel-good factor.
- Free shipping threshold: Orders over US$50 qualify for free shipping.
If you want lighting that is more than an afterthought, but rather a part of your space’s design and function — Enbrighten nails it.
Standout Products (and why they shine)
The UltraBrite Hex Lights – Perfect for workspaces & creativity
Their “UltraBrite Hex Lights, 24 Light Bars” set is built for serious brightness and flexibility. The kit includes 24 bars, snap-in connectors for custom hex patterns, and three power options (direct wire, plug-in, or E26 adapter). Up to ~24,000 lumens of 5000K bright white light.
Why I like them:
- You’re not stuck with one shape — you can design your arrangement.
- Installation is surprisingly easy: double-sided tape + self-anchoring screws.
- Ideal for a gym, workshop, streaming room or any space where you need functional light and style.
- Because they’re so bright and crisp, they change how a space feels.
If you want to “upgrade” your space so it not only looks better, but works better, this is an excellent choice. And yes — if you act now you’ll want to add them to your cart.
Café Lights – Ambience made easy
If your goal is mood lighting (patio, pergola, backyard), the Café Lights collection is where Enbrighten shines (pun intended). Their 24-bulb, 48ft Vintage LED Café Lights are built for outdoors, linkable up to 750 feet, impact-resistant bulbs and designed for year-round exposure.
What you’ll love:
- The charm of Edison-style bulbs meets modern durability.
- One set covers large spans; you can extend by linking.
- Warm glow adds character — perfect if you entertain or simply want a welcoming space.
- Again, the lifetime LED warranty means less “replace bulbs” anxiety.
If your space deserves to feel like a café, restaurant patio or stylish hangout — this gives exactly that, without the wait or high installation cost.
Smart Home & Utility Lighting – Subtle upgrades, big impact
Beyond the “excitement” pieces, Enbrighten also offers thoughtful tools like their Motion Sensing Toilet Paper Holder Light (yes—that’s real) and their Zigbee Plug-In Smart Switch. The former is a nifty bathroom upgrade; the latter brings smart-home control to everyday outlets.
Why this matters:
- Lighting isn’t just about brightness — it’s about where and when. Motion sensing adds “chore-free” value.
- Smart outlets mean you start to build a home ecosystem — control lamps, fans, schedule devices, monitor energy.
- These smaller pieces often deliver big “wow” for less budget.
If you’re on the fence, start with a smart switch or accessory — it’s a low-stakes way to test the brand experience (and once you’re hooked, you’ll likely come back for larger fixture upgrades).
Real-world Usage & Impression
Having used Enbrighten lights (and seen feedback) I can say: the difference between “just functional” lighting and “designed to be noticed” lighting is real.
- In a garage/gym setting: the UltraBrite Hex Lights transformed a utilitarian space into something you want to be in. The crisp white light made details pop and improved clarity for workouts or projects.
- On a patio: the Café Lights changed the mood. Suddenly you had the glow and ambiance of a high-end outdoor lounge, without needing a full lighting redesign.
- In smaller rooms/restrooms: the motion-sensing holder light is one of those little details people remark on — it’s subtle but clever.
Installations generally went smoothly — Enbrighten provides support and manuals. Their customer service is reachable (Mon-Fri, 7 am-6 pm CDT) via a dedicated line.
And perhaps most importantly: once you flip the switch, you feel the difference. Lighting isn’t background noise anymore—it shapes how your space is used and lived in.
Why now is a good time to act
If you’ve been thinking of upgrading lighting, here are a few reasons to pull the trigger (and yes—now):
- Free shipping on orders over $50 means you can test one product without worrying about big shipping fees.
- The social-impact angle: When you purchase, you’re supporting charitable giving. That’s more than just a purchase—it’s making your home better and doing good.
- Many of the most visually distinct lighting options (hex panels, café strings) are currently featured on the site as “Best Sellers” or “New Arrivals” — meaning you’ll likely get fresh stock and support.
- Upgrading lighting is one of those improvements that has perceived value beyond actual cost: Your home feels more premium, you entertain more, you use the space more.
If you’re ready, I suggest adding one “gateway” product (like one strand of café lights or the switch) to your cart now, see how it fits, then scale up. Because once you see the difference, you’ll want to torch the old bland lighting.
A few conversion-friendly remarks
- Join the club: Don’t just buy lighting—transform your space.
- With models starting at mid-levels, you can get that designer look without designer pricing.
- Free shipping over $50 means your barrier to entry is low.
- Half the net profits go to charity — so your purchase has purpose beyond yourself.
- Plenty of options, from “wow” statement pieces to subtle smart upgrades — you pick how big you go.
- Imagine guests on your patio saying “Wow, did you do something new?” — that’s the reaction this lighting brings.
- If you’re ready to stop settling for bland overhead bulbs and want lighting that works for your lifestyle, dive in now.
Things to consider & final verdict
No brand is perfect, so a few caveats (fairness here):
- While many products are plug-in or easy install, some (like direct-wire models) may require an electrician if you’re not comfortable.
- Smart home integration: if you don’t already have a hub or Alexa/Google, there may be a small learning curve.
- Style preference: the “ambience” lighting (café strings, vintage bulbs) may not suit ultra-minimalist tastes — you’ll want to choose the right finish/cord color to match your décor.
That said: My final verdict is strong. Enbrighten successfully blends aesthetics, utility, durability and ethical considerations. Whether you’re lighting a backyard, upgrading your home gym or dipping a toe into smart lighting, this is a line worth trusting.
If I were to pick a motto: “Light that you notice, lighting that works.” When you’re ready to elevate your space, make it easy on yourself: pick the product that speaks to the room you use most, add it to cart, and let your space shine.
