MR16 7W led bulb

These bulbs are pretty good. The color is correct at 4000K, brightness is appropriate for a 7w LED, and the pins are the correct size for good contact. There’s a lot of these bulbs in the world that have pins that are too thin, and they are difficult to work with in many fixtures. These are good, they make contact immediately and are stable when lit for hours, not flickering on and off like the cheap ones.

I needed to replace my two front halogen docking lights on my boat, these did the trick and are much brighter. I read other reviews that complained some of their LED's did not work, so I ordered the six-pack even though I only needed two. The two I installed work perfectly, I did not test the remaining four. My docking lights are completely enclosed behind water tight lenses on the bow of the boat. I'm not concerned with heat build-up since I'll be lucky to use the lights once or twice a season for less than 15 minutes at a time. Besides, they are replacing halogen bulbs, which generate a lot of heat to begin with. A couple things I really like about the LED lights is how bright and pure they are with much less power consumed. These LED's also measured exactly the same as the halogens I replaced, which they needed to because they are held in with a metal shroud and two springs. I relied on the seller's measurements and it was very accurate, thankfully. My only word of caution is to be aware that they are described as "Non-Dimmable", so if your application requires dimming, these lights are not for you.

These lights work great when they do work--I bought a 6 pack for two 3-light strips, and 1 bulb is flashing on and off, the other is completely dead. I replaced the old halogens that were working in the two sockets in question to be sure, and they worked, so I know the bulbs are non working correctly or at all. The price is right, the bulbs that work work as advertised and are nice and bright. I am hoping to work out a replacement for the two non functioning bulbs with the seller/manufacturer. Update on 12/16/18: The seller has sent me 3 replacement bulbs that work perfectly. I appreciate the seller's communications and honesty. It is nice to see someone stand behind both the product and the sale. I would buy from this seller again.

I bought this set because the exact same set I bought last year already has 2 green lights burned out. They only get used at Christmas time (~1 month of the year) which means the ones I bought last year lasted less than 2 months of use. Very disappointing because the colors are nice and bright. Update: The seller informed me that the 5w lights, not the 7w, should be used if they are in an enclosed fixture. They have sent me a replacement set of lights in the 5w rating. I have re-rated the product based on this. I appreciate the seller contacting me and making good on their product.

These bulbs (I have the red version) work. They claim to not be dimmable, but I get reasonable dimming with a high frequency 12V PWM dimmer, though I usually use them in on/off mode. They’re way better than a white bulb with a red color filter.

Learn the difference between spotlight and flood light. This bulb is a spotlight, perfectly good for a direct stream of light We installed several of the bulbs in our small kitchen. They provide adequate light for the kitchen.

I guess, fortunately, I did not get to experience the short lifespan as other reviewers claim. The specs are definitely bogus. I purchased 2700K, and the box I received said 2700K, however these measured at 3000K on what I consider a very accurate meter. My intent was to use these for landscape lighting, so this is way too cool/harsh next to my other 2700K lights which are typically coming in warmer around 2500K. Next, they are not 7W. I measured 6.2W. That's at both 12.0v and 12.6V, so the drive is regulated. Not a huge miss. Finally, based on some back-of-the-envelope photometrics calculations and my own observation, these are not 38 degree. They are closer to 30 degree which is fairly significant. So, these didn't work for me based on the specs. For those who have experienced longevity issues, I've been using Halco 8W bulbs. One Halco bulb costs as much as a whole box of 6 of these, but they legit lasted almost 7 years running dusk-to-dawn.

great bulbs just needed some that are a smidge brighter!

Muy buen producto, lo recomiendo
