My lights that I ordered from China finally came in. They cost $5.85 each, free shipping.

Shipping time was twelve days.

They were a bit smaller than I expected, but appear well made and they all do work. The smaller size can be a bonus, because I have some track lighting that will only take smaller bulbs.


The bulbs are shown with a Utilitech Pro light that I got from Lowe's under some other brand name for $25.

The Utilitech is larger, heavier and has four LEDS. It also has a diffusion pattern in front of the LEDs to spread the light out more.



The smaller lights (no brand showing) use three LEDs.

The light was advertised as warm white, and I would say that it does appear to be a pleasant comfortable color without the harsh blue cast I have encountered before.

NEXT POST: Performance results.
