“Last I knew and my own experience shows that the ones that screw into lamps and fixtures that were designed for incandescent bulbs are not all that great, especially the 100 W equivalents.
The screw in LEDs have a heat sink on them and will fail prematurely in a fixture (like a ceiling fixture) that has a lens enclosure. At least that’s true of 100 W equivalents.”

My whole house is LED and we couldn’t be happier!

Bulbs are from 9 months ton 3 years old and NO failure.

That’s good to know. I’ll likely give them another try. Maybe they’ve gotten better in the last year or two, or maybe I shouldn’t have skimped on the cheap store brand.
