Review on πŸ’‘ Feit Electric BPMR16IFGU500930CA Equivalent Dimmable LED Bulb by Evan Zurlo

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too white - no 3000K

There seem to be two types of people. People like me love warm yellow light. These lights are usually a bit dimmer because the human eye/brain perceives yellow as less bright. Yellow LEDs are still very, very hard to come by. Based on the reviews I was hoping this would be the right one. There are also those who insist on being super bright and hence give these yellow lights bad reviews. On the contrary, they don't seem to care if the light has a hospital-style atmosphere. Therefore, they often like bright white LEDs. This one isn't as cool white as a hospital light, but I doubt it's 3000K as advertised. It's definitely a lot whiter than the halogen I was trying to replace. It emits a little more light, or at least is seen that way - again because it's less yellow and the human eye/brain therefore thinks it's brighter. in the cabin because I really want yellow pears 2700-3000k. That's not it. I have to keep looking. Finally, unlike some other reviewers who have stated that they don't actually dim the lights on the back. They have a small ring at the base but not like those with the clear reflector or the old Hamptom Bay series. So if, like me, you have a design lamp made of glass, it will not work either. And if you don't mind a bit of white light, there are cheaper LEDs. neither of the two groups.
