Review on Microwave Appliance Equivalent Daylight Non Dimmable by Jeff Rhodes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the bulbs stopped working properly after 6 weeks. Hopefully just broken.

Installed in mid-November. Less than 2 months later one of the lightbulbs just started flickering constantly. Will get replacement to see if I accidentally received a defective bulb. The rating will be updated when the issue is resolved. UPDATE 17/17/2018: The manufacturer of the SWLamp bulbs sent two replacement bulbs with an apology for the defective bulb. They speculated that the lamp might have burned out after being used in dimming mode for a long time. Since I used this bulb over the stove (under the microwave), the device has a night mode which I took advantage of. I think that might be what they were talking about. But if so, Revain's description should include a warning that it should only be used in full brightness mode. I will update again if the bulb burns out again without using night mode. Because I like the brightness of the lamp, the fact that it is LED and the quick response of the company to my problem, I want to give this product 5 stars. However, since it may not work as expected (with night/dim mode), I have to deduct a star for inaccurate description.

Pros
  • ★The microwave has 2 settings (high and low), but our lamps don't support low settings, so please don't use them with low settings, otherwise they will flicker or dim.
Cons
  • Unfashionable
