Review on πŸ’‘ GE 25 Watt Incandescent Chandelier Decorative Bulb by Paul Romero

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Color Changing Hue - Heat Sensitive Coating?

They are bright enough to read if you are within 9 feet or so. Really depends on your lampshade. My first bulb in the pack lasted 6 months. I probably light it up 6-8 hours a day. Amber bulbs emit an orange fire glow. Which helps with falling asleep. Something like a smoldering ember, not a flame. like that . fake and orange. Does not attract insects. At 25w they are actually brighter than the 40w Edison bulbs I get from Bulbrite. Strange. Should be more efficient at converting watts to lumens. Or are my Edison bulbs mislabeled? Who knows. It's a nice dark brown glass when new. But the shadow is gradually turning blue from the heat. The glass closer to the base will be the hottest and bluest. The end of the tip will most likely remain unchanged. I don't know how fast it will go away. I've only noticed it in the last month or two. Bought them in store last year. Store bought bulbs will NEVER change color. These bulk packs do not have to be made to the same standard. Or maybe they ruined all the lightbulbs. Only GE knows that.

Pros
  • Best in their niche
Cons
  • I will add later
