And this is the exact reason that the market for good quality LEDs is so small. You care about price but not light quality (primarily CRI but also flicker and dimmability). That's fine, it's totally your decision to make. But the two products are incredibly far from equivalent.
- tshaddox 4y agoI mean there’s gotta be some reasonable price limit where you stop blaming the consumer. If each supposedly higher-quality LED bulb is $50,000 are you still blaming the consumer? Especially when the consumer has can’t realistically even know if they’re going to get a higher quality bulb or just a $5 bulb resold for $50,000.
- thrashh 4y agoIt’s only a few $ more. And it says on the box. I usually stick to the same brand too. All Phillips bulbs are 90+ CRI and some are 95+ so I just buy Phillips. Problem solved.
- Dylan16807 4y ago"A few dollars" is a bad way to describe the difference between $2 and $25.
- thrashh 4y agoI consider $3.75 for a Phillips 95+ CRI bulb a few dollars more. A Home Depot bulb is like $2.75. I hate that you have to research bulbs but you’re making it out way harder than it is.
- Dylan16807 4y agoBut those $3-4 bulbs aren't the ones people were talking about. Unless you claim they are the same tier as the waveform bulbs?
- thrashh 4y agoThey’re really good and far better than most bulbs. Waveforms are even better but it’s like springing for the luxury item. But unless you’re someone that could readily tell, it’s not with the price difference.
