Review on Satco S3004 120V 150W Medium Base by Andrew Hare

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The ONLY brand to use when using a dimmer. No buzzing, no whining!

I use a G40 lightbulb in a Tiffany lamp above my dining table. I like being able to choose different levels of lighting from bright to soft with the brightness control. It's a shame I didn't discover this lightbulb many years ago. All other brands, including the big ones, will hum, sing, or whine when muted. This SILENCE is at the bottom. Wow! For those who love the specs, here's some ready-to-go information: Brightness: 1550 lumens Estimated Annual Energy Cost $18.07 (at 3 hours per day, $0.11 per kWh) Lifespan: 3.7 years (at 3 hours per day) Appearance [color temperature] 2700 K (warm light) Power consumption: 150 W Voltage: 120 volts /W/120V"]

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
