I like the output of the LED's. The bulbs I got have 8 LED lights in each bulb. Rated at 11 watts. They are a replacement for 60 watt bulbs

Mine are Phillips bulbs. 11 watts, 830 lumens, the color is 5000 K. The headlights in my truck are 6000 K. So not far off in color

I'm assuming they're bright as hell

Well the whole idea is equivalency. He said the 11W ones replace a normal 60W bulb. So I assume these are about as bright as a 60W bulb.

Yes that is right mike. But the bulb color was a big thing for me. I don't like the yellowish light given off by soft/bright white bulbs

I guess ill start buying LEDs but they won't go into my place until I use up all the CFL lights I have in stock and at the rate of burning out that will be years.

I've had bad experiences with CFL bulbs. Most of the ones we've had didn't last any longer than incandescent bulbs. Not to mention sometimes they take a while to turn on, and you have to take them to a hazardous waste facility (or you're supposed to).

I have yet to have one fail on me yet in the few years I've used them. There also is no warm up except for the one in my kitchen that is in a can light. The rest are instant.
