Greater than one weekBulbs have lasted without failure for 6 months or so. The color temperature is as advertised (warm) - but the light is dull and somewhat dim. Im not sure these live up to the lumens promise. I will be replacing these in our vaulted ceiling recessed light fixtures.

> 3 dayThese are the best outdoor light bulbs I’ve ever purchased. Extremely bright and they light a larger area than bulbs I’ve had in the past.

> 3 dayI have been purchasing several different brands of Par38 over the years as the LED technology evolved. I was not happy with all of them. The cheaper plastic bulbs are OK for some applications, but I really like these glass commercial quality bulbs. They are bright enough (a little less than 1400 lumens) and right on target with the 5000K spectrum. They are my new goto option for Par38, and I am just going to stop using the cheaper lights. I guess Commercial is the new Residential, if you want the quality and glass envelope.

> 3 dayI purchased a six pack of these bulbs in March of 2017 for flood lights on my garage and the back entrance of my house. Both of these lights are on motion detectors that are set to stay on 15 minutes, have very few cycles on/off and hours of operation. 1 bulb failed after a little more than a year and a second now failed a few months ago. I tried reaching out to the seller in the questions section about the 5 year warranty and how to get defective bulbs replaced or refunded and never heard back. The bulbs seem to be of sufficient quality but I’m giving them a 1 star rating because they advertised a 5 year warranty and failed to get back to me and honor the warranty.

> 3 dayThis is an early review as I just installed these on my outdoor dusk-to-dawn floodlight fixture, but I really like the look, feel, and perfomance of these bulbs. Hope they last a couple of years like my incandescent ones did. They do dim once my motion detector times out. So far, very pleased.

08-06-2025I spent forever looking for good LED spotlights to some broken ones at my moms. They seem well made and are bright as all get-out, and dim-able. They work fine in the motion sensor we have and work on all settings. Time will tell how long these last but so far Im happy.

> 3 dayMy apartment came with 75W incandescents. Its not a great look - the bulbs are ugly. As they expired, I replaced them with 90W halogens. Much nicer bulbs. They lasted pretty good too - a couple of years of 7 hours a day. Later I found first gen 100W CFLs (23W). These are rated at 1300 lumens and give out a very good light and are a genuine PAR38. The bulbs themselves are a bit ugly - you can see the CFL inside and the base is thin rounded glass. But once they are on you cant see the bulb in any case. They take a minute or so to warm up which is a minor annoyance. Next, I found a CFL made of thick glass - like a halogen - a more attractive bulb, but with pretty much the same characteristics. When these became unavailable - at least at a decent price - I tried out LEDs. These were all plastic units. They were 3000K, which was too white for me, so I used them for my garage motion lights and returned the rest. Later, they did them in 2700K and I got some more. Supposedly 1200 lumens (15W), but more like 1000 IMO and not a true PAR38 either. Perfectly serviceable but not great. These ones are an all glass construction (like halogens) and rated at 1300 lumens (14W). I love the look of these bulbs, the light is great, the color seems right, it appears to be a true PAR38. These will be my go-to bulbs from now on...until they disappear as these things tend to.
