Customer Reviews

Waveform made using LED lighting simple for a first timer! This was for a remodel of a bar area with embedded lighting both under and over a shelf. Traditional undercabinet lighting cast shadows on the work surface, and made the display area look like a supermarket. The new LED strips and diffusers are awesome. I will be adding some to the glass front cabinets as well. This has now given me all sorts of new ideas on how to use LED to accent designs!

We wanted a bright, reliable lightbulb for our home that would last. We ordered two of these and are very happy with them. The customer service is exceptional as well - one of our lightbulbs stopped functioning correctly after about 6 months and the company replaced it for us, free of charge, and very easy and fast.

As a hardware engineer, I was pleasantly surprised to see the high quality of manufacturing and LEDs used on the strip. The color temperature and brightness was very good and consistent across the entire strip. Purchased it for the kitchen. Just got done mounting the power supplies and running all the wires for cove and under cabinet lighting. Looking forward to getting them installed soon.

I’ve been building a home around a very specific aesthetic — cool-neutral palette, architectural restraint, materials that need to be seen accurately. Lighting is not decorative in my house. It is structural. And finding a bulb that understood that took longer than it should have.

The Waveform BR40 at 3000K is the answer.

The light is clean without being cold. Neutral without reading yellow. Bright enough to make a difference in rooms with significant ceiling height, but with enough control that it doesn’t spill or scatter. On Lutron dimmers it pulls down beautifully — no flicker, no buzz, no hot ring around the can. Just quiet, even, calibrated light.

What I noticed immediately was how my paint and materials read differently. Fabrics, wood tones, stone — everything landed correctly. That is a CRI 95 problem solved.

I tried commodity alternatives when a batch was damaged in shipping. Within one evening I understood what I’d lost. The light felt hollow, scattered, and institutional — nothing calm about it.

This bulb is for people who have made considered decisions about their home and need the lighting to honor them

Excellent light for my studio space, the plastic-type cover over the strips had a scratch but seems to just be aesthetic. Also not sure if that plastic part is meant to be a little wavy but not noticing a difference.

These bulbs are fantastic! I can’t tell the difference between these and a traditional BR40 incandescent bulb, and that’s a big compliment. All the bathrooms in my home have recessed light fixtures combined with traditional above-mirror lighting. Having full color reproduction in an environment where you are getting ready for the day is important, so the 95 CRI rating on these bulbs is a huge plus. I am also highly sensitive to PWM flicker of any kind, and I don't detect any whatsoever with these bulbs. They are completely steady.

Finally, a quick PSA for anyone with newer construction homes: check to see if your current can light fixtures are using PAR38 or BR40 bulbs. Contractors often install PAR38s by default when a BR40 would be a much better match. My home had PAR38 bulbs in the fixtures right above the toilets, which essentially created a harsh, directional spotlight straight down on you. Switching to these BR40s spreads the light evenly, which is ideal in a bathroom to eliminate harsh shadows and overly focused beams. Highly recommended!

great quality of light, awesome installation options (all provided), packaged with care. really appreciate the easy shipping options to canada as well! thank you!

the first time i ordered this light it was unfortunately not working when i took it out the box but when i contacted customer support they replied within hours and immediately sent me a replacement which is working perfectly. shout out to the customer support and great lights, these work really well for my art room.

Love these bulbs! Fantastic warm white output

I love these lights for my new glass studio. It is in the basement of our new home, and these lights shed enough light to work with colored glass and allow me to pick colors without distortion.

These bulbs were exactly what we were looking for! We redid the lighting in a building that rehabilitates baby birds and it is great knowing that they have good quality light along with the other care we provide.

Build quality seems good and they installed easily with the provided clips. Quality of light is good. Good color rendering, no flicker, instant on. Time will tell about longevity, but so far they are just what I was looking for.

Great lighting!

Absolutely love the light box, shows very vivid colors. I will buy another! I hope they are working on a larger box for larger pieces.

Purchased for my father for fathers day with the light strip so he could start displaying his uranium glass collection. He's super pleased and so am I.

How much does this product weight? It is not specified in the specification sheet

These are a nice upgrade from the prior Ultra High 95 CRI bulbs. My only issue with those was the fact you could detect a very faint flicker if you don't have clean power. These bulbs solve that problem from the prior model. I'm guessing these added a smoothing capacitor and it makes all the difference. The flicker is gone! If you had the prior model and noticed a bit of flicker, these new bulbs will eliminate the issue. I have upgraded all the lamp bulbs in my home to these after ordering a few to test. The LEDs in the bulbs are a bit larger than the prior model as well, which will likely result in even better longevity. With the flicker fixed, the 2700K bulbs are now indistinguishable from incandescent bulbs to me.
Additionally, one of the bulbs out of two six packs that I ordered arrived shattered. I contacted support and they had a replacement bulb on the way in less than 24 hours. Excellent customer service!

I work as a developer and I am constantly looking at blue light, so having this warm light for an hour before bed is a total game-changer. I can really feel the contrast and how relaxing it is. I'm pretty sure I will replace the rest of the lights in my house soon. Really a good purchase!

I purchased the CENTRIC DAYLIGHT™ Full Spectrum Flicker-Free A19 10W LED Bulb (4000K) so I could use my new e-ink devices without their built-in front lights, and it works incredibly well! No eyestrain, no migraines, just very clear light that performs exactly as expected. My next move will be getting the 5000K and 6500K versions for testing in my art studio.

I bought these since our house’s flickering light bulbs drive my wife nuts. We’ve tried other light bulbs but those still flickered. These haven’t flickered on us yet, a few weeks in to using them. Just wish they weren’t so pricey.

I purchased the T8 5000k LED bulbs for my art studio. I have had “just the right florescent bulbs” in my studio for nearly twenty years. I installed 4 of my new LED bulbs just to see if there was a difference. Immediately I knew I have been working with a handicap! Without hesitation I replaced the remaining 20 bulbs. I finally have midday light in my studio. It’s just the right balance of light and color for my artwork. Not too orange and certainly not too blue. And the color shift of my paintings, when hung within a typical home setting is not perceptible. Technology has finally met the needs of the studio artist.

After extensive research for truly flicker‑free LEDs that wouldn’t aggravate my chronic migraines, I initially hesitated due to the cost. However, it has been well worth it. I’ve noticed a significant reduction in photophobia, and as a bonus the beautiful light quality has also noticeably enhanced the overall look of our kitchen. Highly recommend! Thanks, Waveform!

This company and it's product are top notch. About to order a bunch more of these for my home and a client's (dentist) office. The light is nourishing to humans and plants and great for color matching.

It is a Very good light bulb

Not only are the Waveform units extremely light but they are a cynch to setup properly. I no longer need taking lights in my shop because they these perform admirably.
