Imagine a light bulb that lasts 10 years and consumes only 2-3 watts of power. LED technology has made it possible! These LED replacement bulbs are smaller than standard bulbs and screw into standard light sockets. Perfect for hard-to-reach installations.

Summary: Just bright enough - very cool
Comment: First of all, this is NOT your standard desk/floor/ceiling lamp-incandescent replacement. If you intend on lighting the area where you're working/playing/reading etc buy a compact fluorescent, or at least something with more LEDs and warmer color. It is simply not bright enough for these uses.

This is a very, very cool bulb, in every sense: the light color is almost blueish, it's so cool. It also doesn't get warm in temperature at all. And of course it's cool to show off to your friends the high-tech bulb.

It is also quite rugged. While I don't recommend you kick it around, it is hard plastic and will survive being dropped a couple feet onto concrete, something you cannot say about any other kind of bulb.

What it's not, is very bright. It's a rather dim bulb by most standards, but this is not necessarily a knock against it. Given how little power it draws, it's very ideal for anywhere you need a little bit of light, that's on all the time.

I placed it in our hallway - it is bright enough to make walking safe, dim enough to not wake up someone who's walking through the hall half-asleep, and also not shine excess light in people's bedrooms (like our 14 watt CFL did). The low power consumption also means we leave it on all night.

Summary: are we there yet?
Comment: This bulb is better than most of the other LEDs that I purchased but still can use some more POWER when it comes to finding those small objects that you accidentally dropped on the floor and cant really seem to find.... dah? where's my trusty flashlight. I rated it 3 stars and I am pretty stingy after spending big bucks for this. My other pet peeve is the UNAVAILABILITY OF DIRECT MAILING TO PUERTO RICO. Hey we pay taxes here too!!!! Come on people! A light bulb!!! and I cant get it mailed to Puerto Rico. JEEEZZZ!

Summary: 40 Watts for $1.30/year running 24 hrs for 365 days @ $0.10/kwhr !!!
Comment: Who can argue with that value!!!! ONLY $0.16/YEAR IF RUN ONLY 3 HRS PER DAY X 365 DAYS OR $1.30/YEAR IF LEFT RUNNING 24HRS FOR 365 DAYS!! Let alone the miniscule carbon footprint!!!

I bought mine for 6 dollars at Walmart and use it for background light for when I am out and want some light around for seeing my way around when I get home at night. Not all walmarts carry these bulbs. I am trying to replace my Fluorescent bulbs with these because the carbon footprint in almost nil and the cost is fantastic!!

I can't wait till they come out with brighter bulbs that will replace a 100 Watt bulb, 75, and 60. My current 40 watt is very dim and only good for night light effect. Even with four of them burning at the same time in the same area is not strong enough to read without eye strain. This is a start. I am sure the brighter bulbs are coming. I can't wait!!!! If Walmart is carrying them, then I am sure the better ones are coming soon!

Current use only limited to night light function and leaving light on for pets so they are not in the dark when I get home from work. Three cheers for the manufacturers of these bulbs. I hope they will make the brighter ones SOOOOONNN.

Summary: Dissapointing
Comment: For people looking to save power this may be for you, but if you are expecting bright light or even distribution of the light this is NOT the LED bulb for you.

Summary: Not as bright as you would think
Comment: I bought this bulb to replace the one in an overhead fan since the CFL bulbs are too long for the globe. It fits fine but there is nowhere near the light output of a regular 14-watt CFL or standard 60-watt bulb. My guess is this has the output of a 15-watt regular bulb, not much more. It is now used as a night light in my living room and gives the appearance of the TV being on; similar to what you would encounter in the nocturnal animal display at the zoo. It has an "interesting" type of light output but I don't think the price warrants the purchase; I paid about 15 times what a regular 60-watt bulb would cost for this item.
