Ratings & Reviews for SYLVANIA 65-Watt EQ Soft White Medium Base (E-26) Dimmable Light Bulb

Not really dimmable

Packaging says it's dimmable but it really isn't on the packaging it says in fine print dimmable 20%. When the light is on 100% it is super bright but when dimmed all the way it appears still excessively bright . I kept old lights that were not LED because they dim to all the way dark

Great buy

Love the energy saved, good light source, better that the fluorescence floods I have up will be replacing ASAP.

Returned due to not being correct light bulb

Ask for help in purchasing this product. The team member assured me it was the correct bulb (I did bring my old bulb with me). Bought three, got home and they didn't fit. So disappointed and returned the product

LED FLOOD LIGHT

I purchased the 65 watt equivalent soft white lights for my kitchen. These are Ultra 11 Watt bulbs. I wasn't sure how bright they would be, however I was amazed at the amount of light they give off. Totally satisfied, and plan on replacing all the recessed lights in my house with these bulbs.

Solves a lot of issues if it works

Halogens have been burning out in my can lighting way before the expected service life. If this light works as advertised then this will solve a multitude of issues on which light to buy. The only issue is the light is not very compatible with other lights that may have a yellow tint. My guess is they all may need to be LED's if there is a possibility of different zones in the same room being used at the same time. Tried the daylight version. That was brighter than the sun so not good in the kit...

Lots more light and lots less power

This is the first LED I have bought to replace an incandescent. What a difference from the 65Watt incandescent flood I had in the fixture. This draws only 11 watts, about 6 times less power, and throws out 800 Lumens compared to 650 for the incandescent bulb, that is a very noticeable difference! I couldn't be more pleased, More light, less power, and it is rated to last 22 years using it 3 hours a day. I think I'll be dead before I have to replace this light.

Good Product

Replaced incandescent flood lights with this. Instead of bright areas surrounded by darker areas I now have a uniformly lit area. Very nice.

65W Soft White LED flood bulb

This is a great purchase. I am very pleased with the bulb. I cannot tell a difference between the LED and the incandescent/filament bulbs in my kitchen. When it comes time to replace my other kitchen bulbs I will replace them with this type. The bulb lights the area with the same brightness as the filament bulb, and it is installed in a can light. It seems to be cooler when standing under the bulb. It seems sturdy and I expect by the guarantee that it's also durable.

not the light i was looking for

the light has a yellow hue to it the compact fluorescent with same wattage has a whiter light for kitchen area where it was to be used, was sorry as i do like leds because of less heat

Instant On & BRIGHT

I let my pets hang out in the backyard in the evening when it is cool. I usually leave the outside light on while they are outside. The light that came with my house was a 95W floodlight. It did a great job, but hours of wattage was a little expensive and overkill for my purposes. I replaced the bulb with this 11W LED and am more than happy. The light is LED, not CFL, so it is instantly bright when you flip the switch. And burning only 11 watts is fantastic. I plan to change out nearly all the b...

First led flood light bulb

It is slightly brighter than I expected at the 800 lumen rating. It comes on super quick. Overall we like the light and hopes that it lasts a LONG time as advertised.

Awesome replacement for kitchen lighting!

Great lightbulb that replaced my 65w kitchen recessed lights. About 20% brighter than the GE Reveal standard 65w bulbs which go out about once per year. Cost/benefit is great! $15 for 20 years vs $7 for one.

Nice bulbs!

No more CFL pigtails! In addition to using even LESS power than the government-mandated CFLs, these things last longer and when they die, do not pose any disposal hazard like CFLs either!. I have 6 LED bulbs in 6 can light fixtures in my office, and now the place is lit up like Times Square, on just 60 watts! LEDs rule!

Great BR30 Replacement

I purchased 3 of these to replace 60W BR30 recessed lights on a dimmer in the kitchen. They are brighter than the soft white incandescent bulbs. As for their dimming capabilities, they do not get as dim as incandescent bulbs; maybe 50%. Maybe there are specific LED dimmers that would work better, but I don't want to spend anymore money on it. I replaced them without telling my wife (risky!). On the second day, she commented that "it seems brighter in here." My wife hates the spiral fluorescent ...
