why do LED bulbs suck such massive cock?
these shits dont light up any room let alone a small portion of a room

Buy decent ones then, mongoloid
The only real problem is that a lot of them overheat and you need to do some ghetto ass heatsinking to keep them alive for as long as possible

Because you're buying them from Amazon for $0.73 per unit.

have you tried buying the 100watt equivalents instead of the 40 watt equivalents?

Flickering light isn't "real" light, which is produced by heat and/or flame. LED lighting is satanic.

What are some respectable brands with high CRI ? Don't say OSRAM because it's the worst light I've ever seen despite being advertised as >90 CRI

>>106143426
Quite to the contrary. Incandescent light is from hell.

Works on my machine

Dumb thread. LEDs range from super dim tiny lights all the way up to giant megabright flood light arrays. If the ones you got are too dim, just get brighter ones.

Why are you buying low wattage?

>>106143520
The dimmest lights on the market, the brightest lights on the market, the lowest color temperature lights on the market, and the highest color temperature lights on the market are all LEDs.
If you intrinsically refuse to buy LED lights, it is an indication that you are 60 IQ subhuman incapable of performing the most basic or research, and are therefore incompatible with modern society, and thus should be euthanized.

Skill issue

It's not about brightness, color temperature, efficiency, or whatever advantage you shills want to bring up. It's about unnatural, flickering light vs natural light.

I don't disagree LEDs are good for industry, or car signals, or that sort of thing. But trying to make fake, flickering light work for comfort lighting is retarded, simple as.

>>106143793
Schizo.

Needs an ac to DC converter of sorts in every bulb

>>106143808
Maybe, but I'm not wrong

>why do LED bulbs suck such massive cock?
Because using LEDs to save electricity is like not flushing the toilet trying to save water

Has Big LED actually been able to fund LED shillbots even here? I have trouble believing the average anon is as bluepilled on LEDs as this thread would indicate.

>>106143833
My LED bulb has lasted 5 times as long as my previous incandescent while producing only a fraction of the heat

>>106143884
>utterly destroy domestic light bulb manufacturing forever to have cheap LED bulbs from china to save $20 a year on electricity
Wow so wise

>>106143793
>flickering
explain nigga

>>106143360 (OP)
imagine wasting money on lighting
i never had an issue with LEDs

>>106143961
All LEDs produce light by flickering, this is how they are so much more efficient, but even if this flickering is too fast to be perceived, it is still incredibly unnatural and likely even harmful.

>>106143833
Flickering of LEDs hypnotizes people just like smartphone screens.

>>106143833
Sorry but not all of us are spiritual boomers who are automatically opposed to everything new.

>>106144003
No you are just a normalfag, which is probably even worse

my aunt hates LEDs and it's because she's blind. she needs glasses to read and drive
i assume this is why op hates LEDs

fix your eyesight. i never had problems with LEDs

>>106143986
>and likely
discarded

Return to CFL

>>106143673
>the lowest color temperature lights on the market
very nice. now let's see their 700nm output.

Is this the light pollution thread?

>>106144110
LEDfags hate nature, they make all their bulbs in one of the most environmentally destructive states (China), their flickering garbage is 10x brighter than it needs to be and they are all going blind because of it

>>106144225
>their flickering garbage is 10x brighter than it needs to be
Seriously though, why the fuck is everything so bright?
Every once in a while I like to visit my grandparents in rural LA and when the moon's on the fuller side shit's pretty easy to see all around me at night, meanwhile back in the city the average street light is frying my eyes off

>>106144014

>>106143986
Incorrect.

>Seriously though, why the fuck is everything so bright?
haha i don't know :)
