OMG, I love this bulb.
It has an unlisted feature of which I've been searching and searching for.
A feature I find to be minimal, but also defines higher quality.
A feature I've noticed expensive places usually trend toward.
Not to mention, is also more enjoyable in whole.
I even go to the trouble of programming Alexa to apply this feature to my home lighting, and visitors notice and comment on it, always. Although it requires dimmable LED bulbs, which were not as common as they are now.
And this feature I rave about, is that this bulb gradually, fades, glows, whatever the proper term is, as it turns on.
It doesn't illuminate full when turned on, but gradually illuminate over a half second.
I find this to be very pleasing and more comfortable, instead of being hit with sudden brightness.
For the manufacturer to include this in their bulb requires additional circuits, yet this was the cheapest bulb by far, at $4 each.
And increase this review lands elsewhere, it's for model BR18-SF2Q by HEKEE
Ok, so it doesn't fade off, which is a bummer, but hey, it's a start.
The brightness is perfect for a closet, room, entry, pantry, hall, etc.
It's equal to 75w incandescent.
And matches the color perfectly to an incandescent (filament, old style bulbs) too, at a warm 2700k, which I find is perfect.
I was slightly concerned the reviews said it turned off too soon, so I stopwatched it at exactly 59 secs every time.
To clarify, it will turn off exactly 59 seconds after the last motion has been detected.
Every time.
It does not have the hidden programme feature of changing the time duration by quick power cycles, like other bulbs do.
So turning the power switch on/off quickly will not change the timer duration.
Detection seems legit, just as expected.
Although heavily advertised not to use within enclosure, mine works just fine inside the typical outside lamppost. Which keeps it somewhat waterproof too, because experience has taught me these bulbs do not like any type of moisture, not even a sneeze, lol.
So do others a favor, stock up on these and make lighting the way a little more comfortable...
