    Could it be a clearance sale? None are available at my local store and the closest available are all over the place.

    • Quite possibly. Picked up 4x 13W at my local today and still had some left on the shelf. Best to give them a call beforehand :)

    • I reckon it is. They went out of the Osram Lightify range 12 months ago.

    • hmm

    • Its the older Osram range. The newer ones are lower wattage and emits more lumens. You will also notice the older ones are a lot heavier than the newer ones (not sure if that is good or bad).

  • I think Aldi may have LEDs on special buys soon.

    They are the only company that price all the different outputs the same?

  • Does anyone know the CRI of these lamps?

  • +1

    Not dimmable :-(.

    Thanks TA, you light up my life :)

    • +3

      Aye, we know from whence the sun shine. Or at least the 13W LEDs.

      • From his bum. The light shines from his bum.

      He may have to change from Tightarse to LIGHTarse.

  • What is their regular price?

  • These are probably superseded old tech, the Phillips 8w bulbs do 806 lumen these need 9.5w for less.

    • I bought a Phillips a few weeks ago from a Woolworths special.
      Freaken awesome amount of light at such low consumption.
      I am a little concerned about the safety of said threaded led bulb in a standard recessed ceiling fitting as I heard earlier iterations of led bulbs needed a special heat sink.
      I'm so far trying to mitigate any heat issues utilising it in the kitchen which only gets used for short bursts.

      • +3

        8w would put out very little heat. The wattage xonsumption is basically light + heat. That's why the old 50w bulb we're quite hot to touch, quite a bit of the wattage was heat.

      • +3

        The heat sinks are for the efficiency and longevity of the bulb itself. LED/semiconductors don't like heat

        • Actually it's not the diode that needs the heatsink, rather the switching/control mechanism that regulates power. 99% of the time if an LED light dies it's the switching mechanism that burnt out and not the diode.

        • @reactor-au:

          What do you think the switching/control mechanisms are made out of? Diodes and semiconductors.

        • @garratt torlesse:
          When you say bulb itself, it implies the diode, which is the part that fails far less than the switching/control mechanism. Since the diode generates the heat it makes sense that it can withstand a considerable amount of heat which the IC of the switching mechanism can't.
          Maybe we are saying the same thing and I'm just being more specific.

    • Thats not always the best indicator.

      It's easy to push more power through an led to give more light however it reduces the life of the led.

  • Anybody had issue with bunnings mobile web site? E.g. private connection…

  • Bunnings mile end (Adelaide) was useless. Staff checked - plenty in stock but no one knew where they were

    • It's nothing personal. That's been my experience with my local store (Qld).
      I don't know how they survive without an accurate stock control system.

  • Darn, I just literally bought 4 Phillips ones for 10.95.

    Worst feels :/

  • Wollongong already out of stock!

    Somehow I misread it to be Orgasm LED Globes

    • You're a bit dim.

      • He's eventually been LED to see the LIGHT

    • Therapy should help with that.

      • Watt?

  • At my place they don't seem to last very long - the last one died after about 2yrs of little use in an open fitting. Plus the globe colour temps are awful. 2700 look yellow and 6700k look too blue. Personally I find that something around 4100k or thereabouts looks much more natural but not many globes in this colour range.

    • 2700K with low brightness bulbs look yellow. You need about 1000 lumens for 2700K to look similar to incandescent bulbs. The best I've used so far here is Ikea's Ledare bulb. 11W for 1000 lumens, 2700K and is dimmable. The downside is the price as it is $11.99 each!

  • Coburg VIC states they have stock, but on calling them they advise they're out. :/

  • Bunnings have CLICK brand as well for only $3.00
    https://www.bunnings.com.au/click-10w-806lm-led-a-shape-glob…

    • Yep, and they also have an even cheaper brand here…

      • +1

        Thats a bulk pack of 6.
        Fine if you need 6 of the same globe

  • Cannington WA, and anything nearby, is out of stock.

  • Which would you use for a study lamp, Daylight or Warm White?

    • My rule is usually study/places which need focusing then daylight, and warm white for any relaxation places.
      The ones listed here is probably way too bright for a study lamp…. These are more for small to medium sized rooms.
