LED by a very long way

Perhaps this wouldn't be a good choice though. ;-)

I nearly bought the candle version of those, but they did not have the
light output I wanted. (Not for my inspection lamp.) Are they any good?

IME they are excellent - I much prefer them to the "normal" format of
LED lamp, since their light output is pretty much as omnidirectional
like a normal filament lamp. So they work very well in cap down
orientation, or when fully enclosed in the type of shade or luminaire
that benefits from all round light distribution.

The light quality also does not (to my eyes anyway) have that slightly
odd greeny/yellow quality that you get with some LEDs - they are the
closest thing I have seen to a filament lamp so far.

(I have a mixture of the 40W and 60W equivalent ones).

BTW, order them from trade.ledhut.co.uk if you can, and they are cheaper
than from the retail site.
