They look really nice and I use them in a lot of different lights around my house but I've found that they get warm no matter the light or what lamp they are in. very hot compared to the regular bulbs I buy. It's not really a problem, except for a lamp I have that has about 15 of these bulbs. This thing is like a heater if I leave it on too long. The color of the light is very warm and gives the feeling of a sunrise. Good atmosphere.
