Review on Simba LightingTM Shorter Halogen Bi-Pin Bulb by Jamie Sand

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Expensive, low light and hot, but they fit the holes.

The LG microwave that came to my house had burnt bulbs, melted plastic and burnt spots on the shades. I needed a light on the plate below so I removed that. They give very little light and heat up, but they fit in the holes. I suspect the previous owners were trying to get more light by buying brighter bulbs and melting everything in the process. I'm not going to try to make it brighter with hotter bulbs, but it was just plain stupid of LG to make lights so dim that we can only expect that tiny amount of light, and using super hot bulbs over the stove is just stupid, never mind the light output. They will do, but you won't notice much of a difference between on and off, and they get too hot to leave on as a night light, which is all they're good for - lighting-wise.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Obsolete model
