Leds run much cooler than incandescent light bulbs, heat is not a problem. These bulbs look great and did not detract from the fixture as the frosted bulbs do.
They dim wonderfully, make no noise or hum, and don't flicker at all. They are bright, but suggest using with a dimmer.
White color rendition, smooth dimming, very bright at full illumination. Brighter than expected. Same brightness as 40 watt as advertised. Works with my dimmer if i want to reduce the intensity. Works for chandelier in dining room.
These bulb are not a bargain. They are cheap in the worst meaning of the word. Bought in july and 1st of 6 bulbs is out as of mid oct.
They are led and adequately large, as visualized. The lighting power is not as bright as i thought they would be, but still enough.
