Honeywell LED Light bulb $12.99 (8W Dimmable, 40w equiv.)

note: honeywell has nothing to do with these other than licensing their brand

these look like just another re-branding of the same crap LED bulbs that everyone is selling out of china.

Philips, GE and Sylvania actually seem to be doing some innovation around them, while everyone else is using the no-name's with their name glued on

What kind of prices are we looking at for the name brands? I'm in the market for 7 of them.

My point is who takes the heat when products fail miserably - HONEYWELL! When their name is on it it's their reputation at stake.

Shady marketing, no mention of lumen output. Just saying 40W equiv, isn't good enough. As actual brightness of 40W equiv, can vary by 10-20% from company to company.

Disagree. They have everything to do with them when their name is on a product.

Do you think a few failed lightbulbs will effect their position in the commercial HVAC and turbocharger industry? Or change their sales of transformers to a power plant?

Get real if you think they care
