Full Spectrum Sun Light Bulb - A19 9W, Boosts Energy, Mood & Performance, Near-Perfect Color Rendering, Imitate Sunlight Indoors for a Happy Life, American Pry LED Beads,CRI of 98+, (4000K)

I decided to return to traditional oil painting with the onset of AI-generated art putting artists out of work. The only time I have to paint is at night after work and on the weekends. Artificial light indoors definitely adversely affect my color choices. To my chagrin, the colors I painted at night looked different in the morning. This light closely mimics natural light without paying a lot for a natural light sunlamp! I am able to paint at night with a more accurate color palette!

I decided to buy this to use as a reading light. I also wanted natural sunlight to be in my eyes on those days. I am not out under the sun. It is a clear, bright light and does what it supposed to do. Just remember, it is quite bright.

Because all the days that it is cloudy and all the days that it is raining which has been the norm lately. So I know how important it is to get sunlight to produce vitamin d and when we sit in the sun we get the full spectrum of light and that's what this light bulb will do. I will shine it on me 10 to 30 minutes every cloudy day so I don't become depressed

I bought 3 of these 6000K bulbs to use when I work on jigsaw puzzles. The light is outstanding and perfect to see color gradations. However, there are problems. First, the bulbs are not flicker-free. Second, and far more importantly, they don't have much of a lifespan. One died in less than 2 months, a second is dying as I write, also at less than 2 months. Finally, the bulbs are not dimmable. I want to emphasize that this review is limited to the 6000K bulbs (large globe bulbs).

This bulb is a disappointment. Yes, it does a significantly better job with reds than a typical LED bulb, though some reds still don't look "right." My issue with it is the quality of the emitted light just doesn't look natural—and that's accounting for the nominal 4000K color temperature.. As noted in the summary line, it gives neutral colors (whites and greys) a sickly greenish-yellow cast (kinda like a bad fluorescent bulb). Interestingly, that effect is masked if the object is close to the bulb—e.g., it looks OK when 60cm/2' away, but double that distance and the sickliness is definitely there. I wonder how much of it has to do with the bulbs seeming relatively dim?The 1 star rating is in part a reflection of the price—$19(!!!) at the time of this review—as I think it represents an extremely poor value. One can buy an LED bulb with far more pleasing light for far less. Ignoring the price, I'd give it 3 stars.

Full spectrum light that is not quite the annoying extremely bright white that is normally present in other bulbs

This light is very bright and in the correct lamp it’s a great light. I use it at my desk but think it’s far too bright for my need. It gives off that in between led white light and incandescent white light.

Also very good reading light.
