First and foremost, be aware this is a NIGHT LIGHT. You will NOT be able to read a book or cook or perform other focusing activities very well. This reminds me of soft delicate warm candlelight, the type you see when the wick is burned at least a 1/4 of the way down in a fat pillar-type candle.

Rated for 100,000 hours at 8 hrs per day, this should last 34 years ........ compared to any other bulb out there, this is a no brainer as long as you want to softly illuminate a space. I have 4 lamps with these installed and I need not worry if I leave them on for extended periods. Perfect for my downstairs area that can stay 'lit' for safety, without having to replace the typical 4-watt bulbs fairly often, when kept on 24/7. As long as you understand what it is for and realize the 1 watt of energy and 100K hrs benefit, this can't be beat. I have not had as much success with the white bulbs. For me, they are still too "blue".

Using a non-opaque shade for a lamp will give you the most diffused light in a room. I have one in a room off my bedroom that I can safely navigate if I wake up in the middle of the night. Since my eyes are adjusted to the dark, it's "almost bright". That's a stretch but it is impressive. The lampshade is a transparent white but looks like old parchment with the amber glow.

I am only writing this review because the bulb in question cannot defend its self, although it is brighter than the two previous reviewers, it is still just 1-Watt. It is not supposed to be bright, it's 1 watt. So I am giving it 5 stars to compensate for the 1 star ratings it now has. As far as use, I guess it may be handy to put in lightsockets just to test, or maybe a long line of driveway lights that stay on all night.

I bought 20 and strung them from my gazebo.

It looks festive and bugs aren't drawn to the lights.

I know these are only 1 Watt, but they are very dim, too dim for

using in an outside post lamp, or even as a night light,

the output is too dim and seems much dimmer than a

conventional 4W incandescent lamp of the same physical

size. Way cool, but useless for me.

I bought this for my porch. It shows I'm home, and illuminates the keyhole, but does not create a lot of light pollution. It's dimmer than traditional porch lights. And it's not quite enough for good visibility if that is your purpose.

Low energy use. Long life. No high EMF like compact flourescents (whatever the good or bad of that). No insects flying around it, that I can see.
