Works with old dimmer switches

This is the right lamp to use with old dimmer switches. This is an incandescent bulb, but slightly more efficient than a standard incandescent bulb. With my device, they gradually dim from full light to zero. So-called dimmable LED lamps go out about halfway and start to flicker.

Pros
  • Estimated annual electricity cost 5.18 @ 3 hours per day 0.11 per kWh
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

02/24/2018 - mine are made in the USA.

February 24th, 2018 - Mine are made in the USA. All four I installed worked. They were properly packed. The light is slightly whiter than the traditional 60W soft white light found in a similar fixture. However, they are not too white and provide a more accurate color representation. I will buy again.

Pros
  • 0.9 year life at 3 hours per day
Cons
  • No automatic mode

Lots of broken/broken bulbs in the box

One bulb arrived defective (no box, no box of 8 bulbs): scratched (see picture) and something Strange buzzing inside. I will not return the whole package, too much trouble. Let's see if other bulbs work. Review updated: not only were some of the lightbulbs shattered, but others have now been found defective. So far only one bulb is working. I will never buy again.

Pros
  • Pack of 8 bulbs, 60w replacement uses only 43w
Cons
  • Some problems

Let's see if other bulbs work. Review updated: not only were some of the lightbulbs shattered, but others have now been found defective. So far only one bulb is working. I will never buy again.

Pros
  • Quality assembly

Exactly as stated

Order arrived exactly as stated - nothing missing, nothing replaced. All 8 bulbs were tested by me upon arrival and all worked. None are broken. They were well packaged in their original 4 pack carton, in a bubble envelope and in a box of the right size to minimize movement. So nobody broke. I'm very happy with it - finding incandescent bulbs is getting harder and harder. I have a migraine that is sensitive to LEDs.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old

Lightbulbs are better!

I'm tired of hearing about the negative health effects of CFLs, so I've decided to get rid of them all! I bought these bulbs and was very happy with the result! They give off a nice warm light and this has eliminated the complaints of CFLs which unfortunately I have been using for over five years. Finally, CFLs contain mercury and emit harmful EMF levels that reduce melatonin production and affect sleep quality. Not only that, CFLs strain your eyes and emit large amounts of blue light, making…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Unsafe
