Re: [DIY] cheaper LED bulbs

 

I have installed several LED locations that do not have switches.  These are in places I always want to make sure are lighted at night.  We used to keep "night lights" on around the place but the bulbs only lasted a few months at best, and I now have LED's that have been on continuously for several years.  They are getting them brighter and better all the time.

They just took my address and sent new bulbs to me. I have had no failures since that time. I've also had premature failures with flourescent bulbs.  I wouldn't buy any of the ecosmart bulbs (Home depot private label).


I do love the very low power draw (and reduced heat) of LED bulbs.

Do you mean spiral fluorescent? I've never seen spiral led.

I may have mispoken a bit.
I have called in a complaint about an LED spiral type bulb and  also complianed about a red heat lamp that exploded the first time it was turned on.
Both of the bulbs were from Feit and the company immediately sent me replacment bulbs at no charge.

I have had a few spiral LED bulbs not last very long but didnt bother to pay much attention to the brand. Not all bulbs have that information on them

Re: [DIY] cheaper LED bulbs

 

There is a catch about these bulb life claims.  There is another part to the bulbs which may fail sooner, a Driver.
It is similar to a fluorescent ballast.

RE: [DIY] cheaper LED bulbs

 

I had outside fluorescents that were supposed to last for 2 years and they lasted 4 months.  Maybe they were designed for under a porch, I don't know.  Anyway, the next set I got is still going and it's been several years, now.   They say they last so long under certain circumstances.  Check out the asterisk.

 


As far as LEDs, I am buying them because the price has come down.  BUT, I never get the soft white – they are too orange for my taste.  Besides, my eyesight isn't what it used to be and I need the brighter light.  I think the cost up front is worth the low wattage and brighter light.
