Review on πŸ’‘ Dazzle Your Space with Luxvista's Dimmable Halogen Replacement Ceiling Lights by Shane Schobinger

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great light, eco-friendly life for old halogen floor lamps! *minor* lamp modifications required for installation

I am very pleased with this LED replacement for the double sided halogen lamps. The brightness and color quality in daylight is what I was hoping for. It gave my old halogen bulb a new and greener life! Installation was not entirely smooth and required slight modification of the lamp reflector to allow the replacement LED to fit properly in the socket. There is a reflector at the bottom corners so both ends don't stay connected. I quickly fixed it with a small hammer to make small dents in those corners: problem solved! In addition to modifying the reflector, I had to remove the glass heat shield and halogen bulb. Then with a new lamp (post reflector mod) it fitted perfectly into the cartridge. All in all I think it was a very easy upgrade with great results. The LED bulb also works great with the dimmer on my old bulb. I didn't notice any flickering or other problems. Again exactly what I expect from an upgrade. In conclusion, I think it's obvious that I'm very happy with this LED upgrade. It doesn't seem to be as bright as my old 300w halogen bulb, but still bright enough for a lot less power. The daylight color balance is exactly what I wanted. A small *little* hit with a hammer made it fit my floor lamp perfectly. Definitely 5 stars from me!
