The main purpose is for the lamp for us that we wanted an attractive uplight with warm light, with little power consumption. Light is cooler than the previous ceiling washer with halogen tube, but after some getting used perfectly fine. More can not be expected of certain LED. The dimmers are super. No noise and also on very little light dimmed. This is a problem with many other energy-saving lamps. Not here. The only drawback: The lamp is always something wrong. Either in one or the other direction. Then we turn back around it. The next day wrong in a different direction. There is a point deduction. Otherwise perfect.
