For the second time in a year I have had to replace conventional hood lamps. This time I thought about buying an LED (every other lightbulb in my house is LED, even outdoor spotlights and security lights). I AM SO HAPPY I DID THIS. I'm losing my eyesight and didn't realize how "warm" or dim my old headlights were until I replaced a blown bulb. Wow! Huge difference. Whether I wanted it or not, I replaced another working lightbulb with a new LED. It's a lot brighter. I don't even use my kitchen lights anymore. just a lightbulb above the stove. I don't use it, but I see where some might prefer it - the bulbs can be dimmed (I have a "high/low" switch on my range hood). I ordered six knowing this is the only product that uses this bulb. I might never use other lightbulbs as they have such a long lifespan.
