Customer reviews for Philips 12E26A60
I read about these "incredible" new bulbs in several technical magazines and ordered four to try out in my house in the Dominican Republic. Electricity here is 4-5 times more expensive per kwh than in Maine where I come from, so I hoped these would be a great alternative to compact flourescents. The light quality was great and yes, you COULD dim them. Problem came when the voltage varied just 5%. They then started blinking and would not stop until the voltage returned to 110v EXACTLY. Not for the 3rd world!!
Philips 12E26A60 Review by B. J. Davis (Portland, OR United States)
These 60w replacements are perfect. Great for areas where you want to leave the light on. The color is warm so it has the same look as the incadescents. The 75w version of this bulb is a bit tall and often doesn't fit into the same area the the incandescent did. Please shop around. I found these same bulbs at Home Depot for $25ea.
Philips 12E26A60 Review by Thomas Merck "Reader995" (Herndon, VA)
Although LED lightbulbs are comparatively expensive they are coming down quickly in price and will continue to do so.
The lighting is indistinguishable from the cozy glow of an incandescent bulb, none of that harsh white glare from other LED bulbs. It achieves full illumination instantly and doesn't contain Mercury (unlike Compact Fluorescent). It is also dimmable.
Be advised that these should be used only in open fixtures as the heat dispersion is insufficient for closed units. This is a minor issue that will undoubtably be resolved in the near future.
CF bulbs have an early failure rate that is rather high and I've already had to replace 3 out of 5 in a bathroom array over the past 4 years. They also seem to lose power over time. While I can't vouch for the longevity of LEDs I suspect they will be far more durable and they don't lose efficiency over time. I do have LED flashlights from the late 90's and they are still going strong despite significant use. All this to say that although LED is expensive, in the long run it saves you money. This is besides the fact that prices are dropping rapidly.
