Review on 🔦 Dacor Halogen Replacement Bulb by LSE Lighting by Marcus Cross

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Blown out in 6 months - who can "make these lamps great again "

2 different light bulbs in our Dacor range hood, each burned out within 6 months of light use (less than 1 hour a day several nights a week). The original factory lamps have lasted over 10 years. Now I'm looking at LED lamps. If official Dacor bulbs lasted as long as promised, I'd happily pay $35 for a bulb, but there's no indication that dollar OEM bulbs in 2017 are any better than original quality, although they may have a 12- month warranty from selected authorized parts suppliers. Note: Also note that there are short and long versions of the screw base. Our Dacor ehd36sbk hood requires a long version and the difference can be as little as 1/4 or 1/2 inch: the short version doesn't screw in enough and is stopped by the round hood trim before it can touch the outlet. (We bought other spare parts to replace this blown bulb, not realizing the difference between "long" and "short".

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
