Kira Home Revel LED 7W Dimmable Filament Edison Light Bulb (50W replacement), 2200K 600LM, ST21 Antique Shape

I was excited to try this Vintage Edison Light Bulb! I had recently been to a museum in Chicago and seen similar lights and thinking how cool they were. I was of course a little skeptical at first with it being Vintage. Is it going to be bright enough? Too bright? I was so thrilled how it looked as I put it in my lamp and turned it on! The filaments lit up and it reminded me of those old light bulbs! The glass on the bulb is smoked and it just puts of a nice warming glow! The light shed from it is actually better than the lightbulb I was using. I'm always looking for a good lightbulb for "my little corner"! The bulb is 6.5 W which is equivalent to am50W bulb! I'm looking forward to the savings on my light bill! Saving money is always a plus. I'm not sure that I would put them in areas where you need brighter light, but for me it works in my living room where I sit and read and write (type). If this light proves to save me money on my electric bill and stands up to the 180 hour lifetime I will definitely be purchasing these again!

While this bulb is a bit pricey for a single light bulb, you are getting more than just a bulb. If you buy this, you will want to use it in a light fixture that has a glass or see-through cover or lampshade, because the bulb itself is artwork. It fits in any normal socket, but is a bit longer than a regular bulb, so keep that in mind as well. This was a splurge for me, as I am re-decorating my living room. Otherwise it would be a bit too expensive for me to get multiple bulbs in this style at this price. But I do get only LED bulbs and am at about 50% of my house in LEDs now. Little by little all my fixtures will have LEDs.
