Dimmable LED Yellow Bulb

This is for the yellow "bug" light bulbs.I've been using a few weeks now and they work great. The true old bug light color, and they work perfectly in my "dual-bright" dusk-to-dawn motion sensing lights.

I have a front door porchlight fixture that employed two standard 100w tungsten bulbs wired in series so that they would light much more softly and last 'forever' at the lower running voltage (60v instead of 120v - an old trick for porch lights and such). I replaced them with two of these 5w LED dimmable bulbs and they worked perfectly - running at almost full 400 lumen output each in spite of the reduced individual 60v voltage on each lamp and using only 5 watts total due to the the series circuit. Plus the bright yellow/orange light is so much better in appearance than the old standard tungsten bulbs. Bottom line: brighter and more attractive light, 5 watts instead of 100. No problem leaving them on all night, and no bulb burn-out for years. I love LED lamps.

I use these for my garage coach lights on a timer. Only some dimable bulbs work and these will work. They are very yellow, good for insects, but only moderately bright. For me, the appearance and working on a timer are very important, so I am happy.

Possibly 5 stars: These dimmable yellow LED bulbs did a better job of not attracting bugs to the porch of my cabin than the other yellow bulbs I tried that turn themselves on at dusk and off at dawn, and it is great that these LED bulbs are dimmable; not all LED bulbs are dimmable.These bulbs still did attract some bugs though. However no bug attraction to a colored LED light bulb might be an unrealistic expectation at night, in which case these bulbs would deserve 5 stars.I would love it if these yellow dimmable LED bulbs came in a version that turned on at dusk and off at dawn.

These worked perfectly for my application where my garage lights are dim until the motion sensor trips full brightness. My only complaint is that the bulb portion is only half the bulb itself whereas my non-dimmable LED bug lights are full. This caveat however doesn’t affect the light output or brightness. I can also note the color accuracy for the bug light. Overall, they are good performers and really the only option I’ve found for a dimmable bug LED.

I wish I would have known all the swarms of bugs that were hanging around my outdoor lights would be gone with these lights. we couldn’t even open my front door at night. These lights fixed that problim. I have them on every light I have around the outside of my house now.

My current LED yellow anti-bug light was turning white so I looked into a replacement. My research led me to this selection. Nicely yellow. Bug repelling? not so much. Last week when I came home in the dark, there was quite the assortment of flying and crawling bugs around the light. I remember when it used to work. I wonder if the incandescent type of light had a 'special' light frequency that discouraged bugs better. Probably not.

This is the first LED dimmable bug light bulb I've been able to find. It's only 5 watts, gives off a decent amount of light, and can be used with lighting control systems that require the bulbs to be dimmable. I have no idea, at this early stage, if the bulbs will last a long time (as LEDs, they should). But in sum, I'm quite pleased.
