Tools and Hardware Reviews of Westinghouse 03466 Nanolux 3-Watt G19 LED Bulb, WhiteCustomer Review: Minimal Use Summary: 2 Stars
Yes, they save energy...but at the cost of producing light. So, it kind of makes sense that they save energy. All I can do is echo what most people here have already said. These are very dim and very blue. There are few applications these lamps are suited to, other than slightly illuminating a dark hallway with a somber, frigid glow. Look elsewhere if things like lumens and warmth matter to you.
Customer Review: OK but....... Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this bulb knowing that it wouldn't be bright enough for reading or most uses around the house and I wasn't disappointed. I finally put the bulb in the sconce outside my front door. It produces just enough light to let you see what you're doing, but the great thing is that its dim enough that it doesn't attract bugs. It uses so little energy that I feel comfortable leaving it on all the time.
Customer Review: Maybe For Accents, But Very Weak Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this bulb to try out as a replacement for my 15W CFL reading light. Unfortunately, I didn't read some of the other comments closely enough and found out too late that this is an incredibly dim lightbulb. DO NOT buy this bulb unless you have a very specific low-lumens use in mind. It is not adequate for much more than mild accent lighting, comparable to a night light (or less, really).
Customer Review: not too bright, but cool Summary: 4 Stars
Like has been said before, this is roughly equivalent to 20-25W incandescent. It's great in the fridge (I don't feel the heat when I reach for stuff on the top shelf like I do with an incandescent) and somewhat useful as a bedside light.
The one downside for use in a fridge is that the bulb is rather large, about 2.5" diameter. It's a tight squeeze for the fitting in my fridge.
Customer Review: Useful for some purposes Summary: 3 Stars
As others have mentioned, it's pretty dim. I use it to light up a dark area inside that leads to the garage. At night, it provides just enough light to see where you're going. I replaced a 10-watt compact fluorescent with this bulb, and this 3-watt LED bulb is maybe half as bright. Fortunately, the previous bulb was brighter than I needed, so now I'm benefitting from the lower energy use.
