I have the past two years only LED bulbs. Now that an Osram LED Star Classic A60 10W after only 2,000 hours started flickering and broke down, I have 10 Wattausprobiert hallway. The light is much better than the Osram and comes extremely close to an ordinary light bulb. The lamp makes no noise and is now bright. For me the best LED bulb that I've ever had (I lamps from Philipps, Osram and Toshiba tested).
