Due to the many very good reviews and the low price I've started with this lamp my first LED test. Background is a lamp with many small light bulbs, whose high power consumption bothered me (something more energy-efficient halogen bulbs with low power are not available) - here the LED lamp should help. Overall, it was soon clear that the LED bulb is not universally applicable, despite many good properties, which is due to the non-uniform radiation. Is the bulb close to the lampshade, you can see the individual LED strip lamp extremely (s. Picture below on the lamp). When the lamp is farther away from the lampshade, merge the pattern (in the picture above on the lamp). In addition, you have to watch the warm-white light color of the bulb is colder than is usually the case for warm white (2900K instead of the most usual 2700K for warm white). Now replace the LED bulb an ESL in another lamp with me, and I am pleased with full brightness immediately after switching on. Because of uneven radiation from me it "only" four stars - who does not disturb or those who use the lamp in a larger screen, can make for itself five out of it.
