LED bulbs are the future. They are replacing traditional incandescent bulbs and those irritating fluorescent bulbs - not just because they are the law but because they actually do the job.
In my household we have used a lot of those fluorescent bulbs over the years. At first we thought it was just a matter of finding the right brand, but over time we figured out that they just don't do the job all that well - they work about twice as long as a regular bulb but not 10 or 20 times as long like everyone promised. But, the price dropped and if you picked up a multi-pack on a sale it didn't matter.
The bright light is the LED bulb. The dimmer one in the background is a fluorescent bulb. Laverne and Shirley are on the television watching the beer bottles go by. |
I got this bulb for free to try out and write an honest review. I have had it in my family room for about 7 months in a canister fixture above my fireplace. It has been through cool temperatures and very hot temperatures since my gas insert fireplace heats a lot of the house and that heat flows right past this light fixture. The bulb still works and works well. It is very bright and comes on instantly.
Long term result: Great bulb.
Recommendation: get the multi-pack. They are cheaper by the half dozen.
Get the single bulb here: Single bulb.
Get the multi-pack here: Multi-pack.
