Nice warm color, but not the same on every bulb
I bought 2 packs of these to replace the 11 watt incandescent bulbs that I use in light strings along my deck railing. I specifically chose this product because it was the one with the warmest color temperature (2200K, while most others are 2700K or whiter) I could find on Amazon. This was important to me because I wanted bulbs that matched the warm orange color of the incandescents.What I like:- Color temp is perfect! Visually indentical to 11 watt incandescent bulbs I had.- Brightness is perfect as well, because it seems pretty close to that of the incandescents.- And of course the big reduction in power consumption per bulb, 1 watt vs. 11 watts, which is important to me because I have several strings of these lights that are on automatically for several hours every night.What I don't like so much:- The "filaments" in these are just a straight line, rather than the curled filament in a real incandescent, thus they lose a tiny bit of the charm of the incandescents in that regard. Not a big deal, but different.- My only real complaint is that the color temperature is not completely uniform from bulb to bulb. In each of the 2 boxes I bought, there was 1 bulb that was noticeably whiter and brighter than the others. I found this enough bothersome that I took those out and will just keep them around as spares.

Beautiful light quality
I am using these bulbs to replace 7W incandescent bulbs in a set of outdoor string lights over my deck and inside my screened-in-porch/outdoor dining room. The quality of light is very similar to the incandescent bulbs [warm glow], if not a touch brighter. I was concerned that the single filament might look odd. But, the reflection of the filament in the bulb makes it look like 2 filaments. I like the fact that the bulbs appear to be made of glass, thus making them clearer and less thick than plastic. I just hope they hold up in the weather in Upstate New York.My only beef is that they flicker every-so-slightly when your eyes move from left to right, which is an attribute of many LED bulbs. Given the savings in power, I'm happy to live with that.

Great product, Amazing Customer Service, Pls Lose the Styrofoam
Hey, I really want to give Keymit 5 Stars but we installed about 300 of these puppies a few weeks ago at the Alibi Tiki Lounge in Portland, Oregon-- so I don't know yet how they'll hold up but so far, so good. I don't think any of them were broken upon arrival. They're truly a Warm White-- very hard to find with an LED in my experience, anyway. The 1W bulbs were dim enough that they don't detract from the neon, so so far we're very happy with them. One of the best things about these lamps, though, is the customer service. Keymit was available to answer questions and when there was a hiccup in a shipment, they more than made that up. Very responsive customer service. Thanks, Keymit! One thing I wonder, though-- would it be possible to pack these without styrofoam which has a very high environmental impact and is difficult to recycle?

Great lights, great company
When I saw that Keymit provides a Certificate of Analysis showing the spectral power distribution and CRI of their lights, I knew they were my kind of company. When I sent them questions, they replied promptly and helpfully.I've now had the lights outside for two months, and they've been great. [Update: At almost 3 years, they're still great.] The 2200 K gives the warm color that's great about old-fashioned filament bulbs, and for a back yard, I wouldn't want them any brighter (nor to consume more power).Unlike an old Edison bulb, these do flicker at line frequency, but it's not bad. The same is true of LED holiday lights.

Great for string lights
I bought these for my outdoor string lights. They don’t quite have the same elegant look as an Edison incandescent, and the color temperature is slightly different, but the ultra low power consumption more than makes up for it.

So far so good. Although the output lumnen is a little brighter than the Costco's string light incandescent 11W bulbs, but if you don't have them side by side, you won't be able to tell. Very Warm ambient light and not yellow. Customer service is great, I have some crack bulbs on arrival, I notify them and they sent replacement out within 24 hours. Why 4 stars, because I don't know their longevity since I only installed them for a few days, and I don't exactly know that it actually pull 1W as advertise because I don't have any mean to test it. But if you are looking for LED replacement bulbs for your ambient back yard string light, you found the right one. Price are fairly competitive too.

Great color and brightness - perfect replacement!
THese bulbs are great. The color (2200k) is a perfect match to the original incandescent bulbs. In the attached photos I replaced one sting of lights with these bulbs (except one) to compare with the incandescent - it’s hard to pick out the original bulb from the new LED bulbs, and these match the full string of incandescent perfectly. I will definitely buy more.4 star rating is because two (2) of the 18 bulbs arrived broken. They were packed well, but the broken bulbs (sheered where the glass meets the metal base) could be from packing or shipping. Hopefully the next box is better.

Good fit and finish
Got these to replace a few lights that had broken in our LED string set (from Lowes). The original bulbs are 0.5w, I wasn’t able to find any other bulbs here on Amazon that met that rating in the style we needed. I didn’t want to replace every bulb so they matched, just a few.Bulbs arrived safe and packed very well in foam insulated factory box. Fit and finish is as good as the ones they are replacing. One minor note, the new bulbs are rated at 1.0watt. This isn’t a big deal in power, but I was worried about odd lighting from them being brighter. One watt isn’t a lot of energy, and a half a watt difference isn’t notable! In the photo, the new bulb is on the right, the old on the left.Bulbs are glass, like the originals, glad to have a few more on hand.
