Light bulbs. Incandescent light bulbs.

33. Some LED light bulbs for standard light fixtures make you feel like you're in the bright sunlight.

Other LED light bulbs are completely worthless. So if you got an LED light bulb that is worthless, that does not mean that LED light bulbs suck. It means you got a poor brand.

A bulb I bought years ago is just terrible. I recently saw one for only $3 in the grocery store (versus the $15-$35 bulbs I was buying at Home Depot) and tried it. It is also really bad.

I see upthread someone recommending CREE brand. I haven't tried that. I did find this brand at Home Depot (Ecosmart, I think, the branding on the package isn't really clear; is that a brand, or just a merchandising tag line?):



I purchased these in both spotlight and full around lights. The only complaint I had in the latter was that the 100 watt equivalent is way too bright for direct lighting. It definitely needs shading. But I put it in a ceiling light in a low traffic part of the basement where it really lights up the place.
