Not to mention frosted bulbs are more drop-resistant than clear bulbs.

I don't think I've ever seen low pressure. Most around here are high pressure: small and with a shade of pink.

The size is only to put the filament far away from the socket and not melt it. It should work in any lamp with a ceramic screw.

The so called filaments are relatively dim with the light distributed over their combined length, that you can look at them when they're on. Often many of them are hung as decorations to get enough total light. The radiation pattern is mostly to the sides (especially if all the sticks are straight) and the light is more diffuse with less sparkle on shiny surfaces. If you have a lamp that must shine away from the base, then these are not a good choice.

Usually one of the LEDs burns out. People "repair" them by shorting the bad LED out, but that causes the remaining to fail.

Two 40 watt bulbs (not banned then) are less efficient and more brown than one 80 watt. Nice logic.

I have incandescent frosted bulb

Incandescent bulbs are easier to make in factories imagine guys if someone is living in Africa he can make incandescent bulbs and sell while making led bulbs is very complex

Does the colour have an impact on your health, am I moving into a new home and wonder which incandescent would be the most suitable colour for the kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and spare room

I love either of these bulbs. LED's SUCK. I read that LED's are bad for people eye's and it makes sense, they flicker at a certain pace (or frequency) thats why they save energy but they hurt eyes. They hurt my eyes. Meanwhile incandescent lightbulbs have ZERO flicker, so it uses more energy but it doesn't hurt our eyes.

The illuminance meter you are using is the $15 one, have you calibrated it?

How u replace the bulb ? I have one similar but has metal cage around the glass and bulb

I'm no expert but you probably need a diffuser on the phone. It's just a strip of paper. th-cam.com/video/07SxrmjSqGc/w-d-xo.html

FPL6EX-N bulb

I'm thinking of getting the halogen light because it also provides heat for colder areas.

There's a Street in Anaheim that still uses low pressure sodium lights.

The sad part is I just burned out my last a21 3-way light bulb. It lasted me 3 years.

I have one in great shape except for the battery holder. It is gone, batteries leaked, plastic is shot. Anyone know where I might find a replacement holder?

Can the bulb be replaced?

what app exactly you were using ? i cant find any that is not virus and ask for 999 permissions for phone list and calling and sending sms and accessing weird domains +++

I enjoyed your video but how do you change the bulb...I've replaced the batteries and it's not lighting up so I don't know what else to do.

I have used a similar bulb in my area light because I like it more than LED. I also have another area light that has a 65w fluorescent ballast. It’s bulbs are just the tubes with a capacitor.

Your using the phone wrong

I have a package of 2 brand new and one used 26w par38 bulbs like this that I found in my aunts garage. They are from 2014.

Everything I wanted to know. Thank you.

Since you broke this one well it was already kind of broken you have another one of these

The bulb didn't turn on for me on this one....sorry....I'm clueless still ...sorry

There are narrow band amber lights that mimic that same actual color but led. Try Flagstaff, Arizona!

How do you get this open to replace batteries?

This was incredible helpful, thank you.

Which one is hotter using for a pump house.

my LED bulb in my kitchen worked fine for 3 years,but then it went wrong and its LED'S started to weaken and strugle to turn on,it wasnt a good bulb after all

They’re completely going away by 2023. I’m really disappointed about it. CFL bulbs are really bad and LED isn’t for everyone.

Can anyone please help me figure out how to remove the batteries on this thing?! Scored one at a thrift store but I can not get the battery compartment open for the life of me

In 2023, Torpedo, Bent tip and candelabra incandescent will probably be banned.

they are banning light bulbs that have been around for nearly a 100 years that have no toxic chemicals for led and cfls that mercury in them and if it happens to break you need a hazmat team to clean it up. also led and cfls are bad for your eyes and have tech in them that will be able to communicate with smart device grids. Thanks government for always making things worse. I think the dept of energy have made a ban for the entire US by 2023. Funny thing is they cant make laws so how could they ban them? Food for thought.

This video is very well made. I learned exactly what I was looking for and I got a side by side comparison on the exact model I bought. Thank you. God bless

Clear bulbs are probably better for garages, kitchens, and workspaces while frosted bulbs are better for living areas like bedrooms, living rooms, family rooms, and places where you want softer shadows. Diffused light is ideal for bedrooms. Also I don’t like incandescent bulbs because they get hot and are inefficient and don’t really last long.

Soft White bulbs are very boring.

Thank you so much for saving my school project good sir

Incandescent-banning is ridiculous and such a scam, because: ⅰ. Although incandescent bulbs are relatively less-efficient at producing light in the visible spectrum when compared to LEDs, this only results in increased usage in the summer, and, even then, it is relatively trivial and vastly offset by the difference in electricity needed to produce incandescent bulbs vs LEDs (plus they do not require hazardous or exotic materials to produce, resulting in less pollution and foreign dependence). In the winter, like basically all devices, incandescent bulbs are nearly¹ 100% efficient,² because any electricity not converted to visible light ends up heating the home, reducing the electricity needed by the furnace by the exact amount used by the incandescent bulb. Also, it takes a long time to offset the tiny amount of saved electricity from switching to LEDs, mainly because incandescent bulbs are extremely easy and cheap to produce. ⅱ. Incandescent bulbs have perfect CRI and mimic the spectrum of a blackbody, just like a candle. Thus, photography under incandescents looks great, unlike cheap LEDs, which have relatively poor CRI ratings (still, way better than CFLs), and trying to mimic this with LEDs requires expensive bulbs, the spectrum of which is still very far off of a natural blackbody curve (which is essential, as it is the production of the blackbody spectrum which makes the incandescent less efficient at producing visible light). Also, you don't get blue-frequency spikes, which can effect sleep, and possibly stress and mood. ⅲ. The dimming performance of incandescent bulbs is vastly superior than even the best LED bulbs available. It isn't hard to find a dimmer³ which will return continuous perceptually linear dimming all the way down to 0 lumens for an incandescent bulb, and, if you have such a dimmer, it will work with any incandescent bulb, and equally well, unlike LEDs, many of which cannot be dimmed. For those that can dimmed, performance varies widely and sucks-most "dimmable LEDs" I've used can only dim down to something around the equivalent of 30% with the incandescent, which, for me, is missing probably 75% of the luminance levels that motivated me to have a dimmer for the light in the first place. Also, most "dimmable" LEDs require trailing-edge dimmers to produce even descent results, though many do at least function with leading-edge dimmers (basically all residential dimmers before dimmers were specifically produced to work with LEDs) now using extra bandaid-circiutry to avoid damage from voltage spikes. The only use-cases I've found for using LEDs over incandescents⁴ (and have a rational basis for doing so) are: a) Bulbs that are annoying to change-LEDs last way longer than normal incandescent / halogen bulbs (they do make incandescent bulbs that are very durable and last a decade or more for special use-cases, but they are less-efficient than normal incandescents at producing visible light), and this has always been my primary motivation for using them. b) You need a really bright light-because LEDs are tiny and extremely efficient at producing visible light, they are a great choice for your average person who wants a really bright light, which brings us to: c) Portable lights-obviously, LEDs are the way to go if you're going to be running off a battery. d) You want to have a large number of bulbs on a power strip that would be unsafe with that many incandescents, or you want to put put too many fixtures on a breaker and not comply with code (pretty sure illegal)-obviously, LEDs draw much less power, making this more feasible (I'm pretty sure that parts of Europe actually have a separate lower-voltage circuit in homes to handle lighting). e) And finally, if you don't want to be nagged for leaving lights on-I'm not even sure that this is common anymore, but, with LEDs, you'll always have a mitigating rebottle to complaints that you're wasting power by leaving on the lights, as the cost of keeping them on is very tiny, possibly even outweighed by the cost of extra food needed to provide the energy to walk over and turn them off. At the very least, the amount of electricity used is so small that it isn't worth discussing, but honestly, incandescents aren't too far off (using up the incandescent's life is a much more valid concern if it is annoying to change), and, for most people, HVAC usage overwhelms everything else to the point that talking about any other device is a waste of time. ────────────────────────────────────── ¹ I say "nearly", because some tiny fraction may get converted into frequencies which pass through the home entirely, or, particularly for communications, the electricity may be sent outside the home (the amounts are extremely small) ² All indoor devices which use electricity are 100%-efficient space heaters, as all electricity used by the device ends up as heat, whether as a byproduct of inefficiency, e.g. friction within a fan's motor gets converted to heat, or as a byproduct of intended functioning, e.g., the fan moves air around, increasing the kinetic energy of the particles, i.e., increasing heat. ³ My preference for smart dimming is 'Leviton D23LP-2RW Decora Smart Wi-Fi Mini Plug-In Dimmer (2nd Gen)', which, unlike every other smart dimming device I've had, will dim all the way down to zero. Also, it has a setting for incandescents, as well as dimmable LEDS and dimmable CFLs (lol). However, its use-case is limited to lamps-for me, that accounts for almost all the lights in my house that I'm interested in turning on in the first place, but, for fixtures, there are probably better options (perhaps a wall-dimmer from Leviton would produce similar results?). ⁴ Just noting that this doesn't apply to CFLs, which are garbage for most residential use. Unless you need a lot of light in an area, the lights aren't going to be turned off and on frequently (if they are as with, e.g., a closet or bathroom, they will die sooner than even a regular incandescent bulb), and you don't mind the lights having a delay to reach target luminance, producing an ugly and unpleasant spectrum, and possibly accompanied by an annoying buzz.

I personally don’t have a problem with this and have been using LED lights for a while now. But I’d like to know who is making money from this. Our government isn’t doing this for any good reason.

thank you, very helpful. 😊

Do you get the energy savings if you use an led insert in a halogen light.

i have one but it flickers and strobes and then it lights up. why is that

I live in Dubuque Iowa I collect fluorescent lightbulbs and have for over 52 years I love the old preheat rabbit start fluorescent light fixtures and I always Will take care and have a nice day I know what you think and I will never use LED or CFL’s if I can help it

Strange that they used LPS for parking.

LPS was never really suited to parking lots, but rather to road lighting

prefect explanation. excellent.

Since they are bi-filament, I don't really see how they could be halogen: if so, each quartz inner bulb would create a visible shadow on the outer bulb making it visible. These 3-way bulbs are often whiter than traditional incandescent bulbs, so you can expect a reduced lifetime. The two filaments also produce a lot of heat when lit together, decreasing the lifetime.
