Pros & Cons
Pros
This bulb is so nice. I have it above me at my workstation, and it's highly illuminating. I like the way the colors look, photos and artwork look under these lights.
Theyre safe for all locations - including full on wet, not just damp. Purty to boot. Another important aspect is high cri. Following that is longevity.
Cons
They're dirty, and obviously used or refurbished and not cleaned. If you want to try something more expensive and hoping they will last longer maybe try something else. Perhaps they are pirated.
It's called collusion. And if you try to get them to honor their warranty they basically ask you a million questions that are meaningless. It's not worth the hassle of trying to file another claim.
Philips makes great products, but i suspect these bulbs are counterfeit. No light shines through the bottom 1.
Product claims to be dimmable and flicker-free. On the on setting, it flickers constantly. They start flickering for a day or two and then quit.

These seem to be the only bulbs that behave like incandescent bulbs when dimmed

They start at a nice warm 2700k and will dim all the way down to 1 with almost no lumens

When they dim they gradually get slightly warmer all the way until they stop putting out light

Since i first discovered philips having this behavior i started looking for warm glow in other led bulbs but i ended up returning the other brands

Ive noticed other brands claim warm glow but they mean only when the bulb is fully lit
