Review on πŸ’‘ Efficient Dimmable Lighting: GE 8 Pack Equivalent Fixture for Brighter Spaces by Tyler Gannamani

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Below about 15% they do not darken.

I am disappointed with the dimmability of this supposedly premium GE lamp. Cheaper FEIT bulbs can dim much less. I've placed them in lamps in a room where multiple dimmers are grouped into a scene and they turn off at a much higher relative dimming level than older lamps in other lamps. It wasn't even close. The bulb itself is cute - looks like a regular incandescent bulb - but you can't see it when it's on or in a closed socket. It's also relatively more efficient, but a dimmable bulb's main job is dimming, and they're not that good. It has been described as a light intended to set the mood in bedrooms and living rooms, but does not dim sufficiently for the purpose. I have to put them on circuits without dimmers or in non-critical places.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • So far so good
