PHILIPS LED 40W BA11 E12 Base 3-Pack Ultra Definition Daylight (5000K) 300 Lumen (3.5W = 40W) Dimmable Clear Flicker-Free Candelabra Light Bulbs

I am really pleased and surprised with these PHILIPS light bulbs - the E12 bulbs, even rated at 2700K, appear noticeably brighter than the LED bulbs that are installed in my ceiling fan that are also meant to be 2700K. I planned to use one bulb in my IKEA lamp which worked out great, the LED is bright enough to be useful but still has a cozy color tone. I would be willing to replace the standard/generic LEDs in our fixtures exclusively with Ultra Definition bulbs.

Constant flickering of lights (utility company is the source of the transients). Theses bulbs mask the problem.

I recently switched to Philips Ultra Definition LED bulbs throughout my home and have been thoroughly impressed. These bulbs are a cut above the rest, particularly in their ability to accurately render colors, a feature that compelled me to replace almost every bulb in my house with this model. The color reproduction of these bulbs is exceptional. What sets them apart is their performance in the red spectrum, where many LEDs, even those with high Color Rendering Index (CRI) scores, typically fall short. The Philips Ultra Definition bulbs bring out reds and similar hues with a vibrancy and accuracy that’s genuinely remarkable. This superior color rendering has transformed the ambiance of my home, making everything look more natural and vivid. Another standout feature is the flawless no-flicker dimming. The transition through different brightness levels is smooth, enhancing the overall lighting experience without any distracting flickers or noise. The pricing of these bulbs is also worth mentioning. They offer incredible value for their quality, striking a perfect balance between cost and performance. The only drawback is the limited range of bulb sizes. My chandeliers require G4 size bulbs, which are not available in the Philips Ultra Definition range. It’s a minor inconvenience in what has otherwise been a fantastic lighting upgrade. In summary, the Philips Ultra Definition LED bulbs are an excellent investment for anyone looking to enhance their home’s lighting. Their exceptional color reproduction, especially in the red spectrum, flawless dimming, and great price make them a top choice. Highly recommended for a noticeable improvement in home lighting.

Put in 10 bulbs in a chandelier. The bulbs dims like an incandescent bulb without all the heat.

Bulbs started failing after just over a month of use. Never had a led bulb with such short life span. Philips is no longer a quality bulb manufacturer. It is very hard to find a good led bulb lately. ALL dimmable bulbs now have some degree of flicker, even these. The older non-dimmable bulbs did not flicker, but the manufacturers don’t make them anymore, so now the only option is to buy low quality leds like these. Really missing incandescent bulbs. We should have waited to ban them, but politicians really like to listen to the sound of their own voice without doing any research.

I've got a TP-Link Matter Dimmer in my bedroom with a ceiling fan. I really like having dimmable lights because when it's dark, I don't want to turn the light on full blast. This is my third set of "dimmable" LED bulbs, and none of the previous ones worked nearly as well as these do. It's been my experience that with any LED light, you're better off having a programmable dimmer than an old analog dimmer. Many LED bulbs will only dim near the bottom of the threshold, and all LED bulbs (in my experience) will start flickering at some point in the dimming process. If you have a programmable dimmer, you can adjust the lowest setting to prevent the flickering from happening. With my TP-Link dimmer, the lowest setting with this bulb is about 10%. At that level, it's very dim, but not flickering. Any lower than that, and it starts pulsing. Above that level, the transition to full brightness is very smooth and the dimming level seems relatively consistent. That is to say that the difference in brightness between 10% and 20% feels about the same difference in brightness between 50% and 60%. The difference starts to slow down near the upper range and doesn't seem like there's all that much difference between 90% and 100%. The reason I didn't give these 5 stars is because mine flash (just once) when they get set to 100%. Honestly, though, I'm not certain if this is the fault of the lights or the TP-Link dimmer switch. That being said, the light is warm and bright, and the dimming is substantial without flickering as long as I keep the light above 10% and below 99%. These also came with an adapter which allows you to use them in a candelabra base like my ceiling light has, or in a standard bulb base. That's a bonus. I may replace my dining room fixture with these bulbs even though those bulbs are only two months old. These dim much better than any other LED bulb I've ever tried. *edit 10/10/23* I took away another star. After using these for a while, I have to report that they occasionally seem to "freak out". Randomly and seemingly for no reason at all, they start to flash on and off. It only seems to last for a second or two, but it's very annoying when it happens.

I have gone to all LED bulbs where possible. These do the job as well as any other LED chandelier bulbs, with these caveats; they sometimes flicker and they are not quite as bright. LED bulbs continue to improve and hopefully, in the future they will replace incandescent bulbs.

Bit low in brightness. As usually perfect reproduction. Comes with the cost though. Thankfully not too hot. Dimming function works fine. I find these last a bit longer than other LED lights too.
