Review on πŸ’‘ Familite Dimmable White Halogen Equivalent: Brighten Your Space with Energy Efficiency by Michael Hall

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great for me!: Light Bulbs

One of the five 100 watt halogen bulbs in my vanity burned out and I decided to replace all 5 halogen bulbs with LEDs. I did this to save 90% energy and also because those bulbs are hard to find and hard to replace. In theory, the LEDs will not need to be replaced again in my lifetime. Well, these 10W LEDs fit right in and are just as bright as the 100W halogen bulbs they replaced. Light color (warm white) +/- like halogen, maybe a little colder. You're on a dimmer; While halogens can be dimmed to zero, they can only be dimmed about 50%, but that suits me. And they don't "buzz" like halogens when dimmed. In general I am very satisfied! I can't speak to their durability as I only installed them today but if/when they blow through I'll try to remember to update this review.

Pros
  • Dimmable, range from 10% to 100%, smooth dimming, no flicker.
Cons
  • Requires socket
