Review on Creative Hobbies® 10J Standard Flickering by Dave Howard

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like how it shimmers at around 60% brightness.

I received these today and put one in my wall light kit to compare with a regular light bulb. I see everyone talking about the "flame" glow being very orange and the light output being low. I have these sconces on a dimmer and when I turn them to maximum brightness the flickering becomes very fast and unrealistic to me. I like how it shimmers at around 60% brightness, but I sacrifice light output. Here are the photos (60% and 100% respectively) compared to a regular lightbulb on the right. Also attached is a video clip of the dimmer setting where I like the flame speed (60%). Revain doesn't allow me to post more than 1 video per review, otherwise I would show 100% flicker. Overall I gave 4 stars because I plan to use the bulbs for a Halloween party and the orange light is appropriate for that type of event. But if I were to buy them for everyday use, the color wouldn't suit me.

Pros
  • Transform your lamps into unique conversation pieces for decorative purposes.
Cons
  • Long delivery time
