C9 Warm White Smooth LED Bulbs E17 Bases (SMD) (25 Pack)

These are great. They look very good compared to other LED options. One of the 300 bulbs had some bent metal on the base, so I am not using that one. 99.67 % success rate isn’t bad for the price.

Everything arrived quickly so we could get our house decorated. Good quality products and great customer service.

These lights far outshine anything else on my block. I was nervous because the pictures made it seem as though they might be a little dim, but that is absolutely not the case. Couldn't be happier.

We purchased our first set of smooth warm white C9 retrofit LED bulbs in 2013 (roof line and yard) and then added the roof ridge row and house sides in 2014. I am truly happy with these bulbs and the low failure rate I have had since purchasing them. Only found one failure this year (2022) when putting them up. I do use the O rings to seal the bulb sockets. I use the Ridge Row Roof Clips, C9 Magnetic Christmas Light Clips around the garage and vertical installations and the Lawn Speed Stake. Neighbors always complement us on our house every year (pretty much stays the same year after year) and quite a few have come by to ask for tips and where to purchase these products. I always send them to Christmas Light Source.

Going LED has saved us money even with the initial higher price per bulb. Lack of failure of these bulbs has been great. We were able to add more lighting to our house and still see a reduction in our electric costs.

I ordered bulbs from 6 different manufacturers, looking to replace the color and brightness of traditional incandescent bulbs. In my opinion, these were the closest. They are very slightly more white and equal or brighter than incandescent. The other bulbs I tried were either too blue, too pink, too yellow/gold, too green, or too dim. I'm very happy with these. I was originally concerned that the plastic may scuff, but it didn't seem like a problem after taking them down after the first Christmas season.

For Christmas I alternate red, white & green bulbs. I tried the cool white, but they seemed much brighter than the red and green bulbs. Also, the cool white next to the green, seemed to make the green look bluish. The warm white looks much better, and more traditional.

These bulbs are as close as it gets to a traditional incandescent equivalent bulb. I love the color and the level of brightness.

The color on these is good. It is similar in appearance to a traditional white CP bulb. The bulbs are not very bright. These are not as bright as my neighbor's Walmart bulbs. The photos on this site are taken from an angle that looks into the bulb. Because these lack a reflector on the inside of the bulb, they are poorly seen from the side. This is the reason you most commonly see faceted LEDs, the bulb is low in the base and needs something to reflect off of. There are two ways to improve these, buy clips that aim the bulb toward the street (found 75 at Walmart for $5), and scuff all the clear plastic bulbs with sandpaper to give it something to reflect off of. Buy faceted next time or a different manufacturer...
