The builders of my house really liked the 40W round lights. I used to replace them with compact fluorescent bulbs. But CFLs didn't last as long as promised. I kept returning the old incandescent bulbs as the compact fluorescent bulbs burned out. I just replaced those 40 watt bulbs with 3 watt Lohan bulbs (25 watt equivalent). Subjectively, they appear significantly brighter than the other 40-watt (equivalent) CFLs they replace and about on par with 40-watt clear-glass incandescent bulbs. They are also brighter than the 40W warm light LED I recently bought. Lohan lamps are quiet. They are also much smaller than regular globes in case you missed that detail. They look great in my lamps. The light is noticeably whiter than CFLs and slightly whiter than incandescent bulbs. If like me you like bright and very white light then they are a good choice. In my subjective opinion, they seem capable of getting the job done by higher rated lamps than their raw numbers would suggest.
