Review on 🏞️ Enhancing Outdoor Ambience: Introducing Voltage Bayonet Contact Landscape Lighting by Wes Thao

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Durability is my main concern

Bought 4 bulbs (bayonet type) to replace standard landscape lighting bulbs. It's becoming increasingly difficult to find regular round bayonet bulbs at your local Home Depot or Lowe's. Although the new bulbs (2V AC/DC, low voltage, 5W, BA15S S8, single pin bayonet cap) are slightly taller than a standard bulb, they are suitable for my landscape. Metal coated (mushroom shaped) lamps appear brighter than older lamps. Old type lamps need to be changed often. The lighting system is over 10 years old and there may be an open/short circuit somewhere. I hope these bulbs last longer than advertised. Although they're a bit more expensive, I'm willing to pay if they don't burn out as often. I will keep you updated over time. This is my second purchase of this product. I was very pleased with the results of the first bulbs. Since my old lightbulbs are burning out, I'm replacing them with this lightbulb. The light is softer white but brighter. I bought my first set of light bulbs in March 2020. They continue to shine brightly. I am very pleased with the look and lifespan of these lamps. Another thing that makes these lamps unusual is that the manufacturer gives them a 1 year warranty. I don't know of any big store bulbs that have a 1 year warranty. If I get 1 year for each bulb I'm happy and worth the extra cost.
