We thought we would save some energy and stop heating up our kitchen with 2 of these in our stove vent hood. They are about 1/2 as bright on the lighted surface as the halogen 35 Watt. The other negative is that they do not work with the dimmer. Only on or off. They certainly use a small fraction of the power and there is virtually no heat, but the brightness is not enough for a cooking light. I paid over $20 for 2. Not worth it if brightness is a factor.

I bought the 6-pak of these from AMZN.
They are nowhere near as bright as the halogens they replaced but I'm ok with that in my application.
Absolutely cool to the touch when on.

Longevity will be the determining factor for value and it will take a while to get any data on that.
I do know that the halogens were dying at an alarming rate and they aren't cheap themselves.

I bought this item in an attempt to lower my expenses on this very beautiful light but also very expensive light (electricity consumption) - the light is so dim it isn't even worth turning on! I have cheap pen light flashflights that produce 1000 times more light than this bulb. I have numerous other LED lights that I use for general purpose lighting which are considerably more expensive to purchase. I thought that since this light had the same specs as my other $20 light bulbs that it would produce as much light but probably not last as long - boy was I wrong! I save 50% but actually wasted money - I will never buy this brand again! Save your money, go to Lowes and buy their brand!!!!
