| Dec 9, 2018 at 20:10 | comment | added | user1721135 | I am not sure about that, I have tried out the ones with the orange sticks inside and some with milky glass. No idea if they are dimmable as I don't have dimmable light switches. Is there a model, which is a sure bet? I don't mind spending money on more expensive products. | |
| Dec 9, 2018 at 15:36 | comment | added | LShaver♦ | Are you purchasing mostly dimmable LED's? These can be hit or miss. I purchased some yesterday that take a moment to start up. Others I've had make terrible buzzing sounds. | |
| Dec 9, 2018 at 12:18 | comment | added | Jean-Paul Calderone | Can you back up the anecdotes in the question with any data? Do you have evidence supporting a particular claim of the useful lifespan of some line of LED products (or LED products in general)? There's really no answer to the question as written now - your anecdotes are your anecdotes and the conditions you describe are relative and unquantified. | |
| Dec 9, 2018 at 7:29 | comment | added | THelper | Welcome to Sustainable Living! I have completely different experiences with LED. All LED bulbs we bought are still working fine; light is at full brightness instantaneous and no noticeable performance loss over time (oldest bulb is about 9 years old now). One cheap dimmable LED we bought does give blueish, cold light, but the brand bulbs give warm light. | |
