I have been very happy with all of the lights I have recently received from Waveform Lighting
I usually wouldn't spend so much on a light bulb but because I've had to do more late night readings, I have been wanting incandescent bulbs. However, many of them have been burning out pretty quickly and the cheap ones I've found online just haven't felt the same. After having purchased this bulb, I have found an appreciation for "good bulbs." I appreciate waveform for selling these to the general public.
I bought this bulb to illuminate prints as they come off of my Epson P900 inkjet printer, and for that purpose it works quite well. I measured a CCT of 5045K and CRIa of 97.0 (R9 93) with a Sekonic C-800-U spectrometer, so in spec there. However, the SSI was only 77 [CIE D50], a bit disappointing. I have attached a measured spectrum. I think the SSI value suffers from a drop-off in the greens and the significant blue spike that is characteristic of this type of LED bulb. I don't think I would use this bulb for photographic purposes.
I make crafts, and the lighting is perfect. I will be ordering more for the rest of my shop.
These bulbs "winked out" one by one precisely as the three-year warrantee expired. Hmmm, what a coincidence. The description claims 25,000 hours lifetime. This would calculate out to 22.83 hours a day illumination. Since they were in a residential lavatory area, they were illuminated only occasionally. So what could that be on average? I say a generous calculation would be no more than two or three hours a day absolute maximum, pushing the already high price into the stratosphere. Also makes me wonder whether the other stats claimed in the description as to spectrum, etc. are also BS. I feel like I've been scammed.
I purchased the Absolute 99 and the spectral output of these LED's are near perfect for daylight simulation. I highly recommend them.
Quality product and shipped in a timely manner. Would use waveform for all my future lighting needs
OK first off, these are not dimmable. The product description is clear on that. If you, like me, plug one into a dimmable fixture that’s not completely turned on, then you will be disappointed and you might put the box away for a week.
I have no complaints. The light is great! I want to put them everywhere.
I put the superwarm lights in the bedroom and it’s so nice for right before bed.
I am not a professional by any means but I look at a lot of plant matter under artificial light so I care about CRI more than most, especially for shades of green and green/brown. I tested these side by side with Philips Ultra HD filament bulbs + standard GE bulbs. Philips were a significant improvement over GE but side by side with waveform filaments the Philips look dull. Hard to quantify but my eye immediately knows which light it prefers and its these ones by a mile.
Awesome customer service. I had an issue and a simple email resulted in a perfect solution.
Very good and reliable power supply. Best to go with 24V if you're doing long runs.
I have been using Waveform lighting for a couple of years now. I find the product to be excellent quality and the customer service is unsurpassed. If you want a good product at a good price, Waveform is for you.
I ordered the film grade led strips and power supply. They were easy to install and work perfectly. Would highly recommend these products for your lighting needs.
I've had the lights for over six months, and two out of the ten occasionally turn off randomly for a couple of days before coming back on. When they’re working, the lights are great. I spoke with customer support, and they blamed the issue on my ballast, but the other lights are working perfectly fine. The lights are good if you get the nonfaulty ones.
Heard about these as a recommendation from a podcast I listen to and they look great. Will definitely be buying more.
I purchased six of these bulbs and absolutely love the light quality they provide. They've truly enhanced the way colors pop in my space!
I really like the light that is emitted from these bulbs It is soft but crisp. Very good light.
I am an artist based in Mexico City. I first installed the tube lights as well as the bulb lights in my painting studio three years ago. I became hooked quite fast. I have installed over 100 of these lamps, particularly the 4000k studio lights. I love their reliability, the color rendition. I like them so much that I even have them in my kitchen. Yes, they are not cheap, especially as I pay import duties, but I have not found anything that is remotely as good for my work. I also recommend their customer service. Excellent product and excellent customer service. Many thanks!
