Review on ๐ŸŒž Highly Efficient Sunco Lighting Outdoor Dimmable Bulb: The Best Equivalent for Illuminating Open Spaces by David Rhodes

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Short lifespan = cost outweighs any energy efficiency or potential savings

In less than a year some of them started flickering and shortly after went very dark rendering them completely unusable. Conventional light bulbs usually last several to several years. Considering they are pretty cheap and these LED bulbs are pretty expensive and burn out quickly, the lack of efficiency is obvious and the advertised/expected savings never materialize. Of course, it's much cheaper to keep buying incandescent bulbs from time to time instead of buying LED all the time. For more context, we tried a different brand first. These bulbs flickered and died within months. The reviews for these Sunco lamps were high, so we gave them a try. They lasted longer and seemed promising. I totally understand the occasional accidentally blown bulb on all types, so a few here and there is no surprise. But that they start to die off one after the other within a year is unacceptable. :/

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick start guide
