I've found them to be of average quality and overrated really. Unless someone has an aggressive streetlamp situation or cresting street bend with constant headlights or something... other options are fine.

Also I figured this out back in my college days with my petey plant. That massive flourescent shine at the top of the window at 4am is a dead giveaway and some enterprising types tried breaking into my place while I was at work.

mmm yes the film, the film.
anyway, I found sites that explain that blackout at the top can be achieved if you build a whole other fucking structure at the top of the window, so there's no way these curtains can really blackout your room on their own. So they should be called opaque curtains. Fucking marketing department

My understanding of the word blackout is from the electric power term when there is no power delivered, so no light, or being unconscious so you see nothing.
No, it's from the term where your windows are muffled, as made famous in ww2 when blackout regulations were in place to prevent enemy bombers from identifying the target.
