You seem to be meticulously crafted, perfectly fits into the thread and is significantly shorter than the bulb.
In direct comparison with a 40W candle bulb (clear glass):
- The light of this LED lamp is really warm white.
- The viewing angle is also true.
- The specified 450 lumen I have to doubt quietly - the intensity is almost, but not quite manage to connect with the 40-watt bulb. But the difference is sufficiently small.
Overall, I am satisfied with the replacement. Of course I can not say anything yet about durability. But even if they should hold out just a year, they have made in ~ 2 hours of operation per day then already paid the current price of electricity.
