The pears actually fall significantly larger than normal variants of this type. Thus they can not be used anywhere as a substitute. In my case, they have so just fit even under the lampshade. The brightness is very fine, but the light is much cooler than my original bulbs. Whether the specified color temperature of 3000K is true, I dare therefore doubtful. The radiation of the lamps is in Verlgeich to "normal" bulbs significantly impaired; the illuminated angle should at max. 270 degrees are, and it then decreases sharply from 180 degrees. Also one should consider the intended use. How long the service life of this "Made in China" product is must yet prove. Visually, it makes a qualitative quite good impression.
