LED Lightbulbs - super efficient light bulbs

  • share ko lang merun ako nakita sa market NXLED brand 4w 2 scene mode naka sale po 230 regular price less 30% nasa 160 each nalang po.

    ok ba nxled brand? kamusta po lumen nya?
  • If Nxled na dimmable -- no good per my experience. Read my rant on the previous page about this issue.

  • @ red_baron

    hindi po dimmable bale pagon po white tapos pagoff at pagon po uli magiging dilaw po.
  • Meron na ba nakasubok ng LED 6500k E27 bulbs sa PC Options? Ang mura kasi: 3w - P30, 5w - P40, 7w - P50, 9w - P60, 12w - Php80. Meron ding 15w pero hindi ko nakita ang price.
  • Hi,

    My nakaencounter na rin ba sa inyo na pagka on ng led downlight naapektuhan signal ng am/fm radio. Affected both yung sa cp and nakasaksak. Nangyayari lang sa nabili kong firefly na downlight pero sa ibang led hindi naman. Puro led ilaw namin iba ibang brand firefly, philips, akari, nxled. May nabasa ako na driver daw nagcacause ng electromagnetic interference.
  • Good day, gusto ko sana i convert sa led yung chandelier namin, nakakita nako ng led driver ang problem ko yung bulbs at wiring. pwede kaya? Ito yung actual pic. Need ko sana dimmable din. Meron kayang ganyang bulb na led?



    Naputol yung isang pin. 20w din isa kaya ang lakas sa kuryente.

  • 2 LED bulbs of 10w GE died on me...worst of the brands I tried so far, this only lasted for less than a year. Had it quickly replaced since covered pa ng warranty, but very disappointed with the brand.

    Very unusual for GE to die like that. Baka naman nakakulob and uminit kaya sira kaagad?

    220v? The closest bulb i ever saw like that was the t10 wedge bulb pero sa kotse yun 12v and walang pin

    you didnt give the dimensions for your bulb but here's the t10 wedge dimensions

  • Its definitely a bi-pin bulb base but without measurements we can't be sure which subtype
    <click here for link>

    If 220v yan malamang mahirap hanapin sa pinas yan, specially since you want dimmable. Pag wala sa ace, wilcon, handyman or home depot bumili ka online. But again since dimmable ang gusto mo malamang online lang yan




    or you can convert it to either 22v e14 or to 12v and find small LED bulbs na kasya
  • @AmalgamvsAloof yup coconvert ko sa 12v using Led adaptor/driver, cge hanap ako kung meron nyan last pic na sinend mo. Kahit siguro hindi na dimmable kung mahirap hanapin. Thanks :)

    Need ko talaga palitan to kasi maliban sa malakas sa kuryente, ramdam ko yung init ng mga bumbilya lalo ngayon summer.

  • Many small 12v LED bulbs for cars can be found in car accessory stores, pero mas mura online
  • the only 12v for home was the halogen type for LED was GU10 types and it does have the 220v version too

    @metallicats
    Meron available yung 12v driver na heavy duty na ginagamit ng striplight.... compute how many bulbs first on per wattage lets say for example:

    12v bulb = 15w × 10 pcs needed for chandelier

    You need at least a 150w 12v driver at minimum to work the next fun part is connecting the positive and negative terminals to the driver

  • GE leds -- replaced another 10w na less than a year old, I used my GE leds for light sa bedroom, sala and dining areas.

    Disappointing talag itong brand na ito. And sabi ng ACE salesman na pulled out na daw GE leds sa kanila and once naubos na existing stock, wala na daw maipapalit.
  • Yung bulb ng ref, may led equivalent na din ba?

    If its e-14 then mas madali although if masikip you might have to buy online a bulb that is small enough to fit

    if its a weirder bulb base like e 12 or e 10 then malamang online ka lang makakakita.




    If kasya you can use a 1 watt e27 bulb with an e27 to e14/e/12/e10 converter


  • Good idea sa converter, although any issues kaya sa low temp and moisture sa mga standard led bulbs?
  • although any issues kaya sa low temp and moisture sa mga standard led bulbs?


    I have used refs (all 1 watt bulbs) with

    1. e 14 small bulb na talagang pang ref. still ok
    2. e 10 small bulb. ok
    3. dalawang e10 na with enough space to use a e27 to e10 converter. One ok, one shorted the second I placed it in, defective converter e. So test first

    so no problem with moisture, although this is always a possibility. Most refs dont have sealed sockets anyway

    temp is not a problem since electronics like cold

  • 6 pcs. 2.5w warm-white (1-yr warranty) GES LED bulbs sabay-sabay humina ang ilaw. Bought July 2016, lights used sa dining room and mga once or twice a week lang nagagamit.

    Pumapangit na quality ng new LED bulbs?
    I've 4 outside in cheapo Firefly enclosures still bright after 5 years.
    Runs the entire evening - ang pinapalitan ko lang yung OMNI light sensor every 1.5 years or so
  • Pumapangit na quality ng new LED bulbs?
    My take: iwasan na 1-yr warranty GES bulbs. Naka ilang pa-warranty na ako, dami ko pa naman biniling 1-yr GES bulbs.

    yeah, they cut too many corners lalo na sa driver

    also at that price range there are other brands with superior lumen:watt ratio
  • Hi Guys, May i ask if anyone have ever tried the brand Lites Plus LED?
    <click here for link>

    Maganda ba sya?
    Thanks
  • litesplus? never heard of it

    ilan ang lumen:watt ratio? If walang lumens na nakalagay automatic di ko papansinin except if super mura and meron akong paglalagyan na di masyado ginagamit
  • Omni LED after 2 years and 1month. Dagdagan na lang ng wiring for more LED light @ 12V.

  • I did that once with a cheap china led bulb. Opened it, screwed it in, turned it on and carefully measured the DC voltage

  • LED Omni 12V

  • My second LED bulb casualty is less than a year old.
    It's the new Philips 2 tone bulb - still works but very dim and won't change color any more.
    Very bad as this has not seen a year of service compared to the more than 5 year bulbs outside the house.
