Can you all say, “Move that Bus!” Today on Green Talk is the big reveal of how Lighting Science’s EcoSmart LEDs looked in my recessed cans. Just so the rest of you are not left in the dark (sorry about the pun), let me shine some light on the EcoSmart LEDs. Home Depot approached me to test the EcoSmart recessed light bulb. I chose the 60 watt equivalent EcoSmart LEDs. In my prior EcoSmart article, I gave you all the facts: their specification, price, payback, lighting facts, yadda, yadda, yadda. All the techy jargon that you all have come to enjoy here at Green Talk. I urge you to get go back and read that article.
But the most important part is….Drum Roll….How did they look. We all know you can scream from the moutain tops that your product is green, but if it doesn’t work, then just talk to the hand. Am I right or am I right?
The Big Reveal
The big EcoSmart LED retrofit day came. Tension mounted in the house. Was these little LEDs going to be the answer to a green girl’s dream or yet another failure from my big box expectations? (Remember, my crying over the Coscto downlights? Soooo, blue.)
Hubby got on the ladder to put them in. Then he told the big bus to move like in Extreme Makeover, so I could see my reveal. Everyone cheered, when hubby flicked the switch. (Um, not really, but, it was so exciting. Words just can’t describe it.)
First thoughts?
I did notice that the LED has a flat front unlike an incandescent or fluorescent light bulb, which has a more curved front. The LED light bulb did not fill in the space the same; however, it did not bother me. Some of you designer people may not like this. (You know when lights aren’t in the right place, it drive you design people nuts.)
How to solve the not full dilemna? I was told that you can move a small screw in the recess light so that the light fills in more of the recessed light. Problem solved.
But it is One Heavy Son of a Gun.
The light bulb is heavy so be careful when you put it up. I am not talking 10 pounds but real solid.
Come’on, Anna. We will still Love You Even if You Don’t tell us All the Picky Stuff.
Sorry, people. I can’t help but give you all my observations and forget about the most important observation.
Well?
I loved the light, but is a white light not a warm yellowish light you are used to. See a close and personal view of how the lights look in the above video.
By the way, Lighting Science calls the color of its LED a warm white light. I happen to love a white light and I think it makes it easier for me to see. Some people may think it is harsh and love that dining room feeling. Make sure you watch the video to see the comparison. Realize I am using my dinky camera to video tape the lights.
I tested the lights in my kitchen since in my opinion, this is the most important room in the house. One side had the LEDs (Yeah!) and the other side had the yellow incandescent (Boo, hiss.) I did think the lights did a nice job with the 10 foot ceilings and I did not find shadows around that part of the room.
If I was to compare it to anything, I would say the lights reminded me of a halogen light. If you like that look, this is the light for you.
How about Dimming?
Ah. The bain of my existence. Did it dim? I have been down that path with other fluorescent lights in my non-automatic dimmers. My fluorescents do not dim all the way down. Perhaps 20%?
Come on Anna, get to the chase. The suspense is killing me.
Okay. Don’t get your panties in a wad. When I touched the automatic dimmer, it dimmed down all together. When I lowered it myself, to the very end of the dimmer, it did not go off and had a slight light on. Hmm. I did not know what to make of this. However, Lighting Science provides a list which dimming switches are compatible. If yours is not listed, I would suggest contacting whomever makes your dimmers and make sure that this light can work with them.
What do Others Think?
I check out both Home Depot and Buzzillion reviews to see what others had to say. (See Buzzillion consumer reviews for the 40 watt equivalent bulb, 65 watt equivalent recess light, and 75 watt equivalent recessed light.) Most liked the 60 and 75 watts equivalent bulb. Issues or complaints? Consumers mentioned the white light and a 2 second delay when you turn the light on. Personally, I did not see the delay.
Home Depot doesn’t have what I want?
I noticed as I cruised around Lighting Science’s site, that they offered many more LED choices, such as long neck, differnt width light beam, and different light output. Perhaps, Home Depot can order you a different light than what they offers. It can’t hurt to ask.
Want to Win a LED?

Condo Blues says
I’d like to win this light bulb because my loving husband isn’t thrilled with the light from our CFLs but puts up with them because he’s a loving husband. If I could find a different quality of light that is as energy efficient or more than our current CFLs, then we’d both be happy.

My daughter’s play room lighting consists of (3) rows of 4 recessed lights. Don’t ask me why the builder did it. With it getting darker earlier, it seems like these lights are always on and I can’t wait to see my next powerbill. I bought a 3 pack of CFL’s just to test and see how the light would be and my wife immediately made me put back in the incandescent bulbs. I’ve wanted to try LED’s but it’s a little too expensive of an “experiment” for as many lights as we have. Thanks for the review and the opportunity to make our home a little greener.

Just purchased two EcoSmart LED Par30 for my kitchen. Had a CFL over the sink and desk but they were not bright enough and spent some time on the net studying lumens and info from other manufacturers of LED bulbs.
On my trip to Home Depot, low and behold, this EcoSmart bulb was there with stats that were almost too good to be true. Bought two and installed them and WOW. They were bright.
Would love to outfit the rest of my kitchen with more.

Teegan Briggs says
I’ve never tried out the LED light bulbs, but I want to! We just bought our first house, and currently, most lighting in the house is still fitted with standard, energy draining bulbs. I have so many lights in this house, that I just haven’t gotten around to changing them out due to expense. So I’d really love to win this and remedy my lighting situation!
Thanks!
kolette modlin says
I have never used a LED light but have heard a lot of great things about them – would love to give it a try
Tonya Dean says
I just think it’s amazing how far they have come in the technology. From candles to LED. Would love to win.

Kathleen S. says
I would love to win because I have been reluctant to give up my old lightbulb ways and this way I could try one and see if I like it! I wish they could find a way to make it less bright white and more cozy(yellower, I guess). Thanks!

I’d love to win because I like the economy of it.
Auriette says
The main reason I’d like to win this lightbulb is because LED bulbs are pretty expensive, and I’d like to see how they perform before I go investing $14 each in LED bulbs. For example, CFLs take a long time to reach full brightness when it’s cold, and we don’t have central heat and air, so there’s a couple of fixtures where we don’t use CFLs in winter. Like you were saying, it may be too bright for certain rooms. Or maybe it won’t be as bright as I expect it to be. That’s why I’d like to try it first.

I’d love to win this LED bulb so that my family can finally take the plunge and convert to all LEDs, which we know is more eco-friendly and economical but just haven’t taken that step yet. Your review sold us, however, and I’m glad for the chance to enter!
