They exceeded all expectations (the picture does not match their brightness). , it was dark and dreary, halogen bulbs are known to burn out all the time and get very hot. I didn't even realize they made an LED replacement for this one. I've searched for Revain and found several that claim to work. Well, since the bathroom was very dark, I wanted a very bright light. I found 10 watts for a reasonable price and they were delivered and installed quickly. My wife was in another room and when I flipped the switch it looked like a pearly gate from heaven opened. Lamp covers don't fit new bulbs, but I knew it was going to happen. No flicker, just the best damn light money can buy. AOC and Bernie will be proud when you buy these lamps.
