I have talked to people who have the Jam Star lights.
The
LED's come from China but they are assembled in America
They are bright and compact lights.
-->> HOWEVER!!!! <<--
I ordered 8 lights and was promised delivery in 2-3 weeks
3 weeks came and went, contacted them: they said 10 days more;
10 days came and went, contacted them, "we just got the parts, they'll be there in 2 weeks"
2 weeks came and went, contacted them "we're waiting on parts"
At this
point I had caught them lieing on the phone and via e-mail.
I canceled the order. They promised a credit. No credit came. Called them, they said "give me 48 hours".
48 hours, no credit, called again, they said I just ran it through the visa machine.
I called my credit card company and no credit had been processed.
I finally filed a dispute with my credit card company and did get my money back (no help from JamStar) 4 months after ordering something that should have arrived in 2-3 weeks.
I don't care how good the lights might be or where they are made, JamStar cannot be trusted. They lie, and lie to
cover up their lies, and then they lie again. Beware!
If you look around you will find others who have had the same experience that I have.
Stay FAR FAR away from JamStar!!! Or take your chances. It's your money!
