"There are no signs of structural damage to the retina from the LED technology. There is absolutely no serious risk to using LEDs in your home or business environment. In the pro-con list of LED lightbulbs, the pros—environmentally friendly, saving you up to 10% on your energy bill, and better light quality—far outweigh the cons." You are correct that lumens is the technical measurement of brightness. Although, I don't always believe the lumen rating for some bulbs. Personally, I prefer the natural appearance of the "daylight" bulbs, especially in the kitchen, bathrooms, and for reading. The other bulbs look yellowish. I have a 100 watt equivalent daylight LED bulb in my reading lamp, and it is amazing how much easier it makes reading. But, I think it is a personal choice. |
If anyone has the flickering problem, I have a set of 6 Bright white bulbs that I will sell for half the Amazon price. These are Phillips which the electrician told us is the only one that has figured out this flicker issue. I bought the wrong color vs what I have in my lamps.

We had that problem with our new house in St. Johns. We changed to new bulbs and the problem stopped. Get the feeling that TV got a great deal on some defective bulbs.

The good old days are gone. Led bulbs, supposed to last what do they claim 25 years? I have a bag full of them that are blown. Where did I buy those? Where is the receipt? For some sending them back to CHINA costs far more than I paid for the bulbs delivered.
The blown bulbs are useful as markers in the yard. Stuff like where the sprinkler heads are. When done I put them back in the bag. Color of light seems to not be consistent to what is stated. Typical of electronic stuff one out of whatever fits your fixture will fail early. If a fixture takes 4 I always buy 6 or more. We have many fixtures that take the same looking bulb. I have a closet full of them, ok half a shelf. Good news. Our outside lamp I have 3 Cree brand bulbs in it. The brighter ones 10 amp? and warm tone. They are nine years old still working fine a guess 9 yearsx10 hours a day=365x10=3650 a year x9=32850 that is amazing |
