      need one for the front, back, my bathroom, and my crack

        Honestly doctor, I fell onto it butt-first! Million to one chance!

  • I've been after a dimmable BC LED globe but can't seem to find one under $15, any suggestions. Thanks

    • just go Bunnings and grab the normal $12.9 or sth one. Dimmable bulbs are a headache to find and some have capability issues

        Is it true that LED's do not attract bugs at night (like moths)?

        • +2

          FAKE ,, any light of any kind attacts all bugs… even a campfire does that and you get some extra crackle :)

          • +1

            @vid_ghost: ^This. There are light bulbs that attract less insects, but offer shitty yellowish light.

            A few decades ago we had a long fluro yellow light in the kitchen that only attracted a few bugs (house had no flyscreens) so I know those work.

            The orange traffic lights seem to work well, but the light these produce is next to useless. Sure, there's very few insects, but also very little usable light.

  • haven't they been half price for like a year or two now

    • +2

      No, but they do the sale every few months.

  • How do these compare with ikea bulbs?

    • -3

      Or a train which I can also afford?

    • +2

      Phillips I find better than IKEA. Just be mindful this is their budget range though.

      Good for rooms you're not in too often. I prefer the purple boxes of Phillips which are a bit more expensive. The warm white is actually 3000k instead of these ones at 2700k. I find I prefer slightly whiter warm white of 3000k.

      Definitely prefer Phillips over Osram. Osram very yellow in their warm white.

      I don't like cool white under any circumstance. Too uninviting and harsh.

      • Cool white is good for reading, cooking, etc though plus it lets you see real colors. Warm white is always a bit yellowish. I agree it's harsh bright but the semi-transparent glass cover of the ceiling lamps tones it down enough I reckon.

        • +1

          As I said I prefer warm white but 3000k ish. Ideally 4000k is my favourite, best of both worlds.

          6000k too harsh and almost blueish IMO.

              @capslock janitor: Are these just random words?

            • @capslock janitor: It depends. For those who have the same awful oyster light fitting beneath your loungeroom ceiling fan like I do, that throws shadows even when 2x 75W incandescent bulbs that lie sideways (!?) were fitted…. then you need cool daylight AND 1055 lumens.

              • -1

                @[Deactivated]: omg u just taught it's called Oyster Lights
                have 2 of those in my kitchen, both take 3 bulbs each.

                we have mini chandelier (3 bulbs) in our lounge

                • @capslock janitor: I don't why they call them that because they don't look like oysters to me… I figure it must be because they both cut your foot open if you stand on them.

      • +1

        how many lumens do u go for

        • Bedrooms usually 800 lumens they don't need to be super bright

          I like living areas bright so bathroom around 1400 lumens, kitchens a couple 1400 lumens globes so I can see what I'm doing etc.

  • We are paying 0.46 per kW, compare what I used to pay 0.06 per kW back in Houston Texas.

    I changed all mine bulb to LED, enjoying things that will pay it self off.

    • We are paying 0.46 per kW, compare what I used to pay 0.06 per kW back in Houston Texas.

      That's a whopping 7.5 times the price! I reckon that's why most American households have heating/ aircon on for almost 24 hrs and they use clothes dryer on an everyday basis. No wonder driving Tesla would cost next to nothing there. Any reason for such cheap electricity there (or so expensive here)?

    • did u visit the ring dinger chiro in houston

  • +1

    Does the free LED light replacement scheme of Aus government provide this type of bulbs? I have seen some leaflets in my mailbox a few times but never paid attention.

    • same… they change out nonLED's to LED for free.. we need to look into it

      • I am sure there will be some criteria for qualification.

        • like what?
          i reckon only criteria is to be non LED replaced..

        • was trying to look for a good company that gave me option to select brightness of the bulbs and warm white tones, but then covid struck and we we didnt want any strangers in home

      • In NSW they only replace halogen downlights for LED downlights..

        And that offer is no longer available in Greater Sydney anyway

        • ohh :/ in VIC they replaced the whole lot.

          which for my home would be: spotlights and all ceiling globes, is what they offered on the last visit.

    • Don't they usually use some cheap crap brand though?

      • Free is free, cheap brand leds should still be better than the cfl's etc..

        so when they die, buy better brand perhaps ?
        (or use old cfl's again, and get LED for free again, i wonder if anyone tried that..)

    • +1

      In NSW the answer is No. They only replace halogen downlights for LED downlights..

      And that offer is no longer available in Greater Sydney anyway

    HNY'21- i stilldk what sf3 stands for

    • Happy New Year to you too QDG :)

  • +3

    Beware. Woolworths label it as warm but it is actually "Soft White" which is 2700k and quite yellow.

    The actual Philips warm white is 3000k which Bunnings stock.

    • I have noticed this and commented above.

      • What does he mean by "actual Philips*?

        • +1

          Philips call their 3000k bulbs warm white and their 2700k soft white.

          Woolworths product name says Warm when the box clearly says Soft White.

    • ?

  • +2

    Be aware once you go over 1055 lumens the bulb body is physically larger and won't fit in some light fittings.
