Review on πŸ’‘ Brilliantly Illuminating Your Space: Dimmable LED PAR20 Flood Light Bulb by Gary Bush

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Terrible dimming curve

These fixtures are good with a fairly narrow beam angle at full power but the dimming curve is terrible. Below 25% power my GE Z-Wave dimmers will just turn off while the existing Osram bulbs smoothly dim to 5%. Above 25% the curve isn't linear at all, you quickly reach full lumens and then stay pretty flat for the rest of the curve. This isn't surprising with budget LED lights, and if you're going to use them for general lighting, they'll do just fine. If you intend to turn the brightness down to lower power levels, skip those.

Pros
  • ENERGY EFFICIENCY - Energy Star and RoHS certified; UL listed; Mercury free
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
