20 MONTHS UPDATE Best in Bulbs

UPDATE: 08/21. Photos of all three are hard to tell, but they were used as reference for the three lamps in question. Lamps 1 and 2 are on together most of the night and lamp 3 is rarely used at all. I noticed haze at 1 and 2 and removed the glass cover thinking that one of the two bulbs in each bulb was no longer working but they were all on! Then I turned on lamp 3 and compared, and (if you look closely at the photos) 3 was much brighter than 1 and 2. I've read that the brightness of the LEDs

Pros
  • Easy Install
Cons
  • I'll write later

Below about 15% they do not darken.

I am disappointed with the dimmability of this supposedly premium GE lamp. Cheaper FEIT bulbs can dim much less. I've placed them in lamps in a room where multiple dimmers are grouped into a scene and they turn off at a much higher relative dimming level than older lamps in other lamps. It wasn't even close. The bulb itself is cute - looks like a regular incandescent bulb - but you can't see it when it's on or in a closed socket. It's also relatively more efficient, but a dimmable bulb's mainโ€ฆ

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • So far so good

I've Seen the Best Light in Bulbs

So I bought a house and there was a dimmer in the living room, but when I used it the bulbs hummed like a hummingbird having a fit. The lamps were still dimmed to a decent light output, but I was afraid they would light up. The bulbs themselves are slightly larger than what I originally had and if you look at them they extend past the tops of the sconces. However, they fade too damn low, more than I need. I have one of those round dimmer switches so I can set it pretty low with a gentler touch.

Pros
  • Free for Education
Cons
  • Quick Guide

Bad news: LED bulbs

Ab pluses: soft white light in full illumination, dimmer does not buzz. Bad: When you first turn on the switch, the light comes on after about a second. Feels uncomfortable. If the same light has a different brand bulb that does not have a delay, the delay effect will not look good. When fully dimmed, the light takes on a green tint, not nice. If left in full dim mode and turned off, the bulb won't always turn on at all when turned on again. UPDATE: After only two months of use, one of theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • 60 watt replacement only 8.5 watts (800 lumens). Saves $84 in energy costs per bulb versus a 60-watt incandescent over the life of the bulb.
Cons
  • There are new competitors

I saw the light well for LED bulbs

Pros
  • 8 LED bulbs A19 shape and size with matte finish, medium base (E26), general purpose bulbs for ceiling, wall and table lamps.
