Great Value LED's

STM · 07-15-16, 02:12 AM

Put two 60W equivalent Great Value (Wal-Mart house brand) LED's in the other day. These things throw off way more light than 60W equivalent CFL's. Looks like it to me anyway. Only $8 for 4 of them.

In a box like these but have 13 year life on the box instead of 9.

Great Value LED Light Bulbs 8.5W, 60W Equivalent, Soft White, 10K, 4-Pack - Walmart.com

The dollar tree store in my area has the same product (different brand on the box) for $1 each right now. The decade of lifespan is questionable, since the parts that run the LED emitter array are sensitive to power surges and spikes. I have had a few of both types (LED and CFL) go out during thunderstorms. The power savings vs light intensity is unquestionably the best feature. I like the LED bulbs better than CFL due to the fact that they light up instantly at full intensity. This is most obvious when it's cold.
