Review on πŸŽ‰ Celebrations 2936-71 C9 LED Traditional Light Set, Ceramic, 25 Multi-Color Lights - Festive illumination for lively celebrations by Crystal Taylor

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Beautiful traditional style C9 LED bulbs

I received my order for these bulbs today (1st December 2011). I received all five colors (orange, green, white, red, blue) shown in the product image. The cartridges were different, but not to the detriment of the product. Mine were sold by AG Distributors & Supplies Corp and made by Revain and all 5 sets included white bulbs. The packaging states that the lamps are made for Ace Hardware. I'm very happy with the look of these LEDs - I've been waiting 3 or 4 years to find this type of C9 LED with a traditional/matte look. Check out the customer pictures I've uploaded - they mimic the C9's "painted bulbs" almost perfectly. They are slightly dimmer than incandescent bulbs, but consume only 0.06W per LED bulb, around 92% less than a typical 7W C9 bulb. It is wonderful! The box says the whole circuit is rated for 2.4W including the losses through the LED current driver. The only other visual difference is that the white bulbs have a cooler side than white, probably 4000-5000K. There is also a very slight flicker that is imperceptible from a normal viewing distance. The colored part of the "housing" is painted glass on the outside. Of the 5 kits I received, 2 had a broken glass case or two, so check the package upon receipt. Each kit comes with interchangeable LED inserts, which are small Christmas tree style LEDs/cartridges. The lacquered glass part slides over the small LED and is held in place by a rubber ring. Replacement glass is not included, so you can order an extra set in case you break one of the covers. The LED itself can be removed from the cartridge and replaced with a 3V, 0.06W LED.

Pros
  • Superb Done
