A 17-watt bulb has survived and must now be proved. In matching lamp gaudy yellow yolk head acts discreetly, clearly visible including heatsink saw the thing from weird, this look does not fit into any environment. Switched on the total hammer! Light impression in the room first class, in the same lamp had bulbs 100 watts and last an ESP lamp 20 Watt. Subjectively, brighter than the old 100-bulb, even brighter than the 20-watt ESP with 1200 lm. Suitable provided for general lighting of a 16-m²-room with bright walls, islands etc. for desk. My experience has confirmed: Opposite ESP lamps can reduce the lumen of the LEDs by 10-15%.
The slots in the lamp head to make walls / ceiling no shadows. Light color and intensity homogeneous, pleasantly warm, no color cast. Color reproduction very good, perfectly for both residential life, higher Ra values you have in any case take neutral white, some shades 'tilt' always. Beam sides as bulb! Dimming: no control is possible, I do not need. When you turn on a tiny delay. No afterglow. The heat sink is using efficient hot, best in lamps with ventilation. The acid test for cooling: with me the lamps have very long response times endure what not create some LED bulbs, the stable can be found but rather in the high price ranges.
The saving of energy is compared to the 20-watt ESP at first glance not dramatic, but shows up hidden in the operating time. I left most turned on the light when I needed it again soon (the endless preheating!) Now it is the same again: 'Clean: one out: from' Financial payback? Just think about what the first LED spots have cost! Funzeln like candles and we bought them because the time was right anyway. Overpriced this is without question, but I did not wait another 2 years. Do want to leave or stay.
Five star it gets despite damage can happen always something. The Design? You get used to quickly and liked it, the light is magnificent! My happiness that yellow and silver gray suit with me.
