Based on the type of base, and the design, there are various different kinds of LED Light Bulbs available. Therefore it is easy for anyone to get confused while picking the right bulb for their needs. Coming in all shapes and sizes there are a lot of energy-saving light bulbs to choose from. This is why it is important to pay attention to the base, type, features and the wattage of these dimmable light bulbs before buying. Here is a comprehensive buying guide to help you navigate the vast ocean of dimmable LED light Bulbs.

A Style LED Bulbs

Normal standard LED bulbs, A type led bulbs find their applications in normal household usage and come in two different base types; A-19 and A-21.

Both the bulbs have E26 base which directly fits in a holder.

The primary difference between the A19 and A21 bulbs is of wattages and CCT.

Application areas: Household use, study room, living rooms, kitchens etc

BR LED Bulbs

BR or Bulged reflector bulbs are different in shape than A type bulbs. BR bulbs have an E 26 base for easy installation.These bulbs come in three different wattage.

Types of GU10 Bulbs  

GU LED bulbs come in various different styles and features

  • These bulbs come in two different color temperatures of 3000 and 5000 Kelvin.
  • These bulbs come in different wattages so you can choose which one you want. 

Features of GU LED Bulbs

Rebate eligible: These LED bulbs are eligible for rebates which will save you money
Dimmable: The luminosity of these bulbs can be adjusted using a compatible dimmer

What are the advantages of using LED bulbs?

Efficiency: LEDs offer energy efficiency like no other technology has ever. LEDs convert 95% of the electricity into light and only 5% of it is converted into heat. This results in massive savings of up to 75% on utility bills. This efficiency also means that a lower watt LED bulb can replace a much higher watt fluorescent bulb.

For instance, an 9W LED bulb produces an equal amount of light as does a 60W fluorescent one. This means that your energy bills will be slashed by 75% with the use of LEDs. This also translates into less energy demanded from the utility grid, resulting in less emission of greenhouse gases, making LEDs eco-friendly as well.

High CRI: The color rendering index is the measure of how accurate the colors are, as compared to daylight. A low CRI light would render colors which are not accurate and far from what they would look like in daylight.

CRI ranges from 0 to 100 where 0 means every color is the same and 100 means absolutely exact color. Fluorescent tubes which have a high CRI are energy guzzlers which makes them not such a common choice.

Whereas in LEDs, CRI commonly hovers between 80-90 with that same power efficiency as discussed in the previous point.

Long-lasting: LED bulbs, because they have no moving parts, no excessive heat and no fragile components, enjoy a long life. LEDs go through an exhaustive testing period and after that testing period come out with a lifespan of 15,000 hours.

This essentially means that your LED bulbs are not sprint runners but marathon runners with the speed of a sprint runner.

CCT: CCT or ‘correlated color temperature’ as the name suggests is the temperature of the light emitted by the light source. The CCT is measured in Kelvin. LED offer a wide range of color temperatures.

  • A color temperature less than 2000 Kelvin is a dim glow of light similar to candlelight and this CCT is used where ambient light is preferred.
  • 2000-3000 Kelvin is the range in which a soft white light appears often yellowish in color. This CCT is often used for lighting the living room, dining room, bedrooms, etc.
  • 3100-4500 Kelvin gives a bright white light which finds its uses in kitchens, offices, workspaces where task lighting is needed.
  • 4600-6500 Kelvin is similar to daylight and is best for display area and places where very bright illumination is required.
  • Lighting with a CCT of more than 6500 Kelvin is a bright bluish hue of light and is best for places where very bright illumination is needed.

Now that we have a fair understanding of What LEDs are and what are their advantages over conventional lights, we will now take you through the various kinds of bulbs available.

Things to consider while purchasing LED light bulbs

With more options come more choices, more choices can create more confusion. To handle that, here are so pro tips for you to make the right LED bulb decision.

  • Wattage equivalency: Find out how of how many watts your existing fixture is, based on that decide which bulb will give the same amount of luminosity. Since LED bulbs are very efficient, a lower watt bulb will give you the same amount of light as would a higher watt CFL of incandescent bulb.
  • Color temperature: Bulbs that give out soft white light are suitable for cozy spaces such as the living rooms and bedrooms since they provide a warm cozy ambiance. Bright white LED bulbs are best suited for Kitchens, bathrooms and garages since they give out a refreshing and cool light. Daylight white LED bulbs are best installed in study rooms, work rooms where energizing white light suits the purpose.
