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.

Hi Joyce-

Where did you purchase the problem LED bulbs? Did you return/attempt to return them>?

I have had problems with some of
the LED bulbs not lasting for years like the  makers claim
;)

I was shocked when I checked prices at home depot
recently. Phillips has soft white non-dimmable LED 60
"watt-equivalent" (800 lumens) bulbs for $2.50 each.
These were regular prices, not sale prices.
