Review on GE 10-5W-800L LED Replacement Bulb by Tasha Folan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Beautiful, bright and dimmable.

I replaced the standard living room fan switch with a Zwave dimmable switch and needed three dimmable lightbulbs. I bought these bulbs for these reasons; GE's reputation for being able to replace a standard 60-watt incandescent bulb with a 10.5-watt daylight, dimmable bulb and wanted to know what an "upgradable high-definition LED bulb" would look like. dimmable lightbulbs that were bright and produced pure white light, but again were not dimmable. I replaced the headlights on a sunny day and I didn't notice anything except the dimmable part. Well I was able to use them last night and they put out white/clear light just like we wanted. The color is pleasing, almost like the light from a skylight on a bright, sunny day. I couldn't figure out what the term "refresh high definition LED lamp" means, but the color of the light coming from these lamps is bright and great for a living room, kitchen or bathroom. just great. We have three large windows and here in South Florida bugs are everywhere and they are attracted to the light. Of course, insects bring other creatures with them, like spiders and frogs. When we turn on the lights, the mosquitoes are attracted by the light reflected in the windows and of course some get tangled in the web while others stay on the ground and are eaten by frogs and even lizards. Cobwebs leave a mess on doors and windows and frogs do their thing on a concrete slab. However, reducing the brightness of the light reduces this problem. For example, when the light energy is turned on at full power, the frogs could be heard slamming the front door as they jump, possibly trying to get food. However, when the light is dimmed, this noise disappears, perhaps because insects are attracted to other light sources. So far we like these pears. Btw I bought a set of six so we installed three in the master bathroom and my wife loves them.

Pros
  • Provides 800 lumens 60 watt replacement, draws only 10.5 watts
