| Very Dim and blue, but for the price | 2010-09-06 | 5 / 5 |
| | Literally pennies on the dollar for where ever you need just enough light to walk, or for a reading lamp that is very close to your head as long as you don't mind blue light. (I don't, I actually find LEDs much better for reading in general though I have these particular bulbs in hallway and porch light...) If you are an energy minimalist, you can't possibly beat the quality of this almost unbreakable indoor/outdoor bulb *for the price*. (Yes, I dropped one from a ladder... unbreakable.) But I'll be more excited when true 60W white light replacements are available for under $10, because there are really only a very few places in the house where this makes any sense at all. (In fact, I bought three and wonder what to do with the third, since the other two will practically never need to be replaced!) Best use in outside fixtures and walkways that are on all night, all to help slow your meter down and get under baseline, not to mention never need to climb the ladder there again;-) They are rated to burn for almost 58 YEARS. |
| | Trying to "go green", but these light bulbs are way too dim. Great for kids room nightlights. |
| Good accent | 2010-09-02 | 4 / 5 |
| | This is a great bulb for accent lighting or using in multiples for a lighting fixture |
| LED replacement bulbs | 2010-08-28 | 4 / 5 |
| When selecting an LED bulb it is important to check the wattage of the bulb and compare that to how you intend to use the bulb. Most LED incandescent replacement bulbs are in two wattages:
3 Watt, which is about equivalent to a 20 Watt incandescent bulb
7 Watt, which is about equivalent to a 50 Watt incandescent bulb
If you are familiar with compact fluorescent bulbs then you may notice the wattage equivalence is not the same. There is a difference in light output between a 7 Watt fluorescent and a 7 Watt LED. On the whole, you will need many LED bulbs to replace incandescent or fluorescent bulbs in the same lighting situation. A typical light in a living room, for instance, may use a 150 Watt incandescent bulb. In order to get somewhere near the same amount of light, that living room need three LED bulbs to replace the incandescent bulb. Finally, the type of LED bulb needs to be chosen carefully unless you are OK with a very blue cast to the light rather than the light orange cast of incandescents or soft white of the more popular brands of compact fluorescents. |
| Inconsistent color but usable | 2010-08-26 | 3 / 5 |
| | Very quick shipment and good packaging. Of the 8 bulbs purchased (all used in one panel next to each other) 3 look white, 4 look blue tinted and one looks purple tinted they do not seem very consistent in color or brightness but otherwise they meet my need on an 8 light bar in a bathroom fine. All i would ask for for is color consistency in which case I would buy more. They are too dim use 1 to 3 at a time unless they are night lights, refrigerator bulbs or other places where you do not need much lighting. But compared to year ago when I tried a few LED bulbs they have made progress if you need brighter bulbs I suggest the: Dimmable E26 A60 Standard Household Base 50 Watt Incandescent Light Bulb Replacement with a 6 Watt LED, Warm White, 1012ww OR The Dimmable Standard Screw Base A60 LED Light Bulb 5 Watt Globe, white 1012WH. The warm light is very good in color and equal to about 40 watts I would guess in a regular incandescent bulb. The white 1010WH is a fair bit brighter equal to 50 watts or so but may be too white for some. Conclusion of the bulbs on this page: The price is coming down and build quality looks good but color is inconsistent. |
