Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Candelabra Light Bulbs Dimmable Equivalent by Shawn Fuller

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Very thin glass, one bulb out of six was broken

I have installed them in plumbing fixtures with opaque white glass shades. The bulbs are shorter than the bulbs they replaced, so the tips aren't visible, which isn't a big deal for our application. In contrast to incandescent lamps, lamps show very, very thin shadow lines through color tones. However, the lighting level is the same as the 60-watt incandescent bulbs they replaced. A side benefit of LED technology is that older incandescent bulbs generate enough heat to prevent a bathroom mirror from fogging up, which LEDs do not. Classic first world problem! The glass is incredibly thin so handle them VERY carefully, they can break just by opening the protective sleeves they come in (one was mine), although the packaging is much better than typical plastic. Bubble wrap that light bulbs are sold in. Revain was quick to replace them but I had a small issue returning my original order to the returns center. The second box of lamps was ok. I can't say anything about the dimming behavior of these lamps.

Pros
  • Trial for one year
Cons
  • Available in white only
