Review on πŸ”† Luyed 2x 570 Lumens Super Bright 3014 48-EX Chipsets 569 578 211-2 212-2 LED Bulbs for Dome Light in Xenon White by Randy Basque

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Here 4 different light sources are considered!

UPDATE August 18, 2017 Original review below. This is an update on the durability of Luyed 2 x 570 lumen super bright LED lights. I bought them in January 2016. One of them failed after about 6 months. He was in the back of my truck, so I just ignored him the whole time. The second broke down a few weeks ago, which lights up the front cab seats on my truck. When I say they failed, I mean they either started flashing like strobe lights or most of the LEDs are no longer lit. I use the dome lights on my truck a lot more than the lights on my work trailer, so you have to consider that none of the headlights on my work trailer went out when I say. My trailer work lights are all Cutequeen 16 SMD lights listed below in the original review. I will be ordering them to replace the expensive LUYED flashlights that have now let me down. I'm also deducting a star from this review and downgrading it to 3 stars. Original rating: LED lighting test results. Since there are so many types of shell lights with different brightness levels that vary wildly in price, I bought 4 different lights and will review them all here. These are the four lamps I purchased and reviewed along with the prices I paid in January 2016: Cutequeen Trading 4 pcs. White 600 Lumens 5630 12-SMD 42mm (1.72") 12V Festoon Dome Light LED Bulbs 211-2 212-2 569 578 - White (4-Pack) 569 578 211-2 212-2 16mm x 42mm White LED Bulbs 2-pack $10.99 LUYED 5 X 360LM Ultra Bright Chipsets 15-EX 2835 15 SMD 569 578 211-2 212-2 42mm White LED Bulbs 5 packs $14.99 I have not a high tech light tester but I have a high tech android smartphone I have downloaded two light meter apps as most smartphones can measure light one app is for measuring LUX which is a much more accurate measurement of the amount of light than lumens. However, since everyone measures lightbulbs in lumens these days, I found another app that measures lumens. I doubt how accurate the lumen measurements were as they were often far above the manufacturer's advertised values for each type of bulb. But there I measured all four lights with the same Lumens app, you should at least be able to tell the difference in the amount of light from each device f: During the LUX measurement, my smartphone was about 30 centimeters away from the light source. . My phone was actually on the armrest of my truck. So LUX is the amount of light that reaches the armrest. When measuring lumens with another app, I measured from about 4 inches, following the instructions in the app. Both measurements were taken after dark so sunlight would not affect the results. .SMD refers to the number of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) per device. As you can see below, their number varies from 12 to 48. But don't let the number of diodes per light fool you. the light is brighter The "price per light" below refers to the price per fixture, not the price per LED. I have included the price per light because in my case I need to buy a lot of these lights for my work trailer. I use them to light my trailer when loading or unloading before or after dark. If you only need one dome light in your car, you might not care about the price per bulb, but if you need to buy several, the cost per piece really adds up. . Here are the test results: Cutequeen 12-SMD: LUX 109 Lumens 600-800 Temp 5000 Price per light: $2.25 16-SMD: Lux 130 Lumens 980-1300 TEMP 5500 PRICE per light: $1.40. The brightest light really is what is advertised as "extremely bright". LUED 48 SMD. But at $5.50 per lamp/device it might be prohibitively expensive for some. Surprisingly, the next runner-up was also LOST's expensive light on Revain. Pretty Queen 16 SMD. At only $1.40 each, they're the real deal. They are even slightly brighter than the LUYED 15 SMD and cost less than half. Another surprise is that the second most expensive light we reviewed was the least bright of the range, the LUYED 15 at $3.00 each. I really couldn't tell much of a difference between them with the naked eye. The LUYED 48 SMD seemed a bit brighter than the others, but it didn't look like the others were that much different. It's definitely not 4 times brighter, despite being almost 4 times more expensive. I will keep the LUYED headlights and use them in my truck with the dual dome headlights. That should make my truck super bright. The rest goes into my trailer. And since I need more, I will order Cutequeen 16 SMD lights. Due to the extremely high price compared to other flashlights, I give these flashlights 4 stars. They're the brightest I've reviewed, but they're also four times more expensive than the next highest. Full disclosure, I received NO compensation or free or discounted products from any company in exchange for this review. This is a truly objective review. I hope this review was helpful to you. Please give me a helpful vote if this was the case.
