I'm curious, what brand are the LED bulbs? There are cheap Chinese made LED bulbs that are sold by the ton or shipping container load and the quality is not that good. I've seen name brand LED bulbs that are made in China and seem to be well made because the brands have control of production.


GE branded Bright Stick daylight.


ah, as i was replacing the light bulbs this
morning i also took out a previous GE Bright
Stick which was a whiter/bluer light and the
specs on that one were 10 watts and 760 lumens.
the new ones are 9 watts and 800 lumens. a
little bit of a nice bump for such a short
period of time (less than a year).

23 of 24 bulbs done. forgot about one and
so it will have to wait until i get the
ladder out of the garage again. it is yet
another light we use very rarely.

Is this what the lights look like? The shape leads me to believe that the lamps are easy to install and remove. The bulbs could outlast the fixtures, meaning someone could remodel and transfer the lamps to a new light bar. It's also a bit depressing to think that a $3.00 light bulb could outlive me. ヽ(ヅ)ノ
