Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Energy-Efficient TORCHSTAR Dimmable Daylight LED Lighting Solution by Joshua Gulledge

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not 23 years Only 1 year

Almost exactly a year ago today I purchased 1/2 dozen of these LED bulbs to replace the 60 watt bulbs in my kitchen. In the same order I buy 1/2 dozen from another manufacturer due to availability issues. I was looking forward to not having to stand under those hot lights for hours. Because I live in the desert. I don't need industrial heat, let alone 20-25 years without changing a lightbulb. Let's fast forward a year. In the last 30 days, 4 out of 6 of these bulbs have died. I have told my wife how incredibly unusual this is. I assumed an obvious manufacturing issue as none of Manufacturer B's other LED bulbs had failed. A healthy justification for spending the extra $$$ on LED bulbs is lifespan. Well, in that category (which isn't in the select box above) I'd give this one a 0 out of 5. I think it's time to spend more money on Producer B. What a disappointment.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
