100 watt Dimmable Led bulbs 4 pack

I choose this as my standard bulb becouse i have access to them, unless you are good at studding lite, wattage and you can come up with lite bulbes that don't match eachother, these bulbs are advertised as dimmable, with a white value that is acceptable to me. Early on i had some of theses bulbs fail with low usage hours, but they now perform better, i try to keep some bulbs available as needed, i am satified with these bulbs.

Thanks to Feit Electric for producing a quality product at such a great price!I bought these bulbs along with the "Philips LED Non-Dimmable A19 Frosted Light Bulb: 1500-Lumen, 2700-Kelvin, 14.5-Watt (100-Watt Equivalent), E26 Base, Soft White, 8-Pack" (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HC7BHRS) and the following is my comparison of both.BRIGHTNESS AND POWER USE:According to the specs, Feit bulbs produce 100 more lumens while using only half a watt more than the Philips bulbs, so at least on paper they are more efficient (Feit bulbs use 15 watts to produce 1600 lumens, while Philips use 14.5 watts to produce 1500 lumens). In experience, at least one part (the "lumenage") of the spec comparison is true - Feit bulbs are brighter than the Philips ones, although, in addition to the extra 100 lumens Feit bulbs put out, it might have to do with the fact that Feit bulbs are 3000K CRI rated, which has a lighter/brighter/whiter tone of light, in comparison with Philips bulbs' 2700k rating, which has a more yellow quality of light, which I started really disliking after seeing the pleasant tone of 3000k bulbs. The other part of the spec comparison - wattage consumed - would require specialized equipment to test, which I do not have, but after replacing at least 12 incadescent bulbs with Feit LEDs, our electrical bill went down at least 50%. I imagine the same would happen if Philips were used. But if you prefer more brightness over half a watt saving, Feit is the clear winner. Using half a watt non-stop over a 24 hour, 365 day period, comes out to 4.38kWh/year (24*365*.5). If your electricity costs you 50 cents a kWh (and that's the high end of the range), that's $2.20 per year. Spend a buck more per year, and save your eyesight - you won't even spend that much unless you use that extra half a watt 24/365. Just remember - Feit bulbs are more efficient per watt (producing 1600 lms at 15 watts, versus Philip's 1500 lms @ 14.5 watts)!LIFE & WARRANTY:According to the product descriptions, Feit bulbs will last 15,000 hours, while Philips will last 11,000 hours. For Feit, 13.7 years based on 3 hrs/day, equals to 13.7*365*3. For Philips, 10 years based on 3 hrs/day, equals to 10*365*3.Feit offers a 5-year free-replacement warranty, while Philips offers a 3-year warranty. In addition - and I haven't checked that on my own - according to a lot of reviews on the Philips bulbs, the extra 5-year warranty Philips offers if you register the product on their website, is invalid, because the website does not recognize the model number, so the point is moot.Feit wins on both counts!PRICE:In terms of price, Feit bulbs also win, being at least a dollar less expensive per bulb (compare 4 for $16 vs 8 for $40).DIMMABLE OR NOT:Although I haven't tested this, the product descriptions say that Feit bulbs are dimmable, while Philips bulbs are not. Feit takes this one too!SIZE:The only downside to Feit bulbs is that they are larger than Philips, with the Feit bulbs having an A21 shape compared to Philips' smaller A19 shape, so if whatever fixture you use has a size constraint, you might want to double check what size bulbs your fixture can accommodate. Just note this has nothing to do with the size of the socket where you actually screw the bulbs in, as both Feit and Philips have the same medium E26 base (base is the threaded, metal part of the bulb which gets screwed into the socket). This is the only aspect in which Philips is the winner.I've attached a photo of both being side to side for comparison, along with the specs visibly printed on the sides of the bulbs.Overall, Feit bulbs win hands down!Thanks for reading.

Dimmable LED bulbs are interesting. They behave quite differently from incandescent bulbs, probably a lot has to do with the type of dimmer you are using with them. I think my dimmer is a generic wall plate slide dimmer. I did not go out and buy a dimmer that is specifically marked as suitable for dimming LED's. So the dimming on these 100W equivalent bulbs is not linear, but these will go from very bright at max, down to near nightlightlevel at minimum. The 60W equivalent (GE I think) bulbs I replaced with these bulbs never got that dim, maybe they would go down to 15 or 20% of the full brightness, but that was it. So I am quite pleased that these new ones give such a broad range of light, even if the curve is not linear.The 3000K color is a little cooler than the 2700K's we had before, but it's still not "cold" light and the stained glass shades show more color now.I would be sure to use identical bulbs in multi light fixtures, because the characteristics are different for different manufacturers. If you need linear control buy a dimmer that says it is designed for LED bulbs. Some need to go through a programming step to set up properly.

I truly love the bright white bulbs to brighten up my whole dining room. I had 60 watt in there at first but the 100 really help see better, as I'm loosing my sight. You can't go wrong when you want to dim them down either.

I've used two of the pack of four and haven't had any of the early failures that others have reported. Also, it didn't make noticeable noise or flicker when dimmed. But I have two complaints:1. While it does dim, the dimming "curve" is nothing like an incandescent. Most dimmers that are designed to work with incandescent bulbs have a curve that causes the bulb to dim gradually in a reasonably useful way. These LED bulbs dim almost not at all until the very lowest part of the range, at which point they dim very rapidly. Also, if your dimmer doesn't have a complete true "off", they may never fully go out, which makes them even less useful.2. I don't have an accurate colorimeter to measure the color temperature, but we have a lot of LEDs and CFLs around the house that are specified as "bright white" from 3000K to 3200K, and these Feit LEDs are quite yellow compared to all of them. They're only slightly brighter than "soft white". Because of that, I won't be using them in certain locations where I really need bright white.
