For me, the G9 LEDs came in original packaging sebson where all the facts were on it, so 2700K, performance, CRI 75, etc. The last speaker knows to report another, therefore seems to be the batch dependent. So be it.
Positive fall ever on that the LEDs are hidden behind a protective mats - I'm not one who is on it, to have to look at every single glow SMD - LEDs are so sexy but then also not :)
What I was looking for? Cubic spots with G9 bulbs are my hallway lighting. Top broader light failure, up a kind of "Beam". A good approach for a replacement with LED seemed given:
- Frosted glass top and bottom of the lamp - that it did not matter, as the G9 LED design looks technically - in one spot are only exit light.
- It's about the hallway light, ie when the 2700k are just not as warm as we thought - no matter. As long as it's not totally cold or pale.
The spots look cool, but if the kids need the corridor lighting in the evening to sleep, fried until now 3 x 40 Watt to himself.
No sooner said than done: the sebson easily fit in, and my rating:
+ No more heat in the Spot
+ No delay
+ No buzzing, humming, buzzing
+ Not "glow" of the LEDs when turned off (yes, there are at quite cheap goods, all have experienced ...)
+ 2.6W LED 40W G9 halogen now replace (matt) -> I find truly amazing !!! I have not lost any amount of light, have both tried side by side. This is really awesome !!! Until now I have always counted in GU10 Spots of conversion factors from at best 7-8 (ie 4-5W LED compared with 35 GU10 halogen). Here at the G9ern that seems better to fail again for the LEDs. And besides that, these G9 LEDs are even cheaper compared to GU10 LEDs also. Explain to me 'the times of ...
o The LEDs are a ticking cooler. The light is a little white but not cold - and for a hallway perfectly fine. And my wife has accepted it, the spots was even good - that is with us always the key decision factor.
- Nothing, really nothing at all to criticize
There were at 6 spots the way ordered all 100% fine. The powerful sebson "G9 31 LED [sebson] (320lm - Warm White - 31 x 5050 SMD LED - 360 ° viewing angle - G9 socket - 230V AC - 3.5W - Ø32 × 72mm)" that I had ordered was equal to the first (but then also only) without function.
The spots remain in it and finally I can get the kids a good conscience in the evening even provide them with light :)
What is still missing in a "I'm excited": this information by Kelvin are simply not comparable. At 2700 Kelvin, I would have almost 100% identical, warm light for halogen expected, but that's probably too naive. For me, the question remains: when can you stop testing phases in LED and really knows before buying, what light you shop itself ??? That was with halogen somehow never a problem only with LEDs you have still to be prepared for potential return in 2013. That depresses me as very, very big fan and LED delayed from my perspective as a key factor the acceptance of LED.
