Lighting Science FG-02609 GoodDay HealthE LED Light Bulb

I put three in a ceiling fan that has individual globes that don't actually cover the bulb so its full brightness is not obscured. The room is my Zen room where I do morning exercises which these are great for waking you up to start the day. I only wonder what it looks like from the outside shining through the windows, Maybe like the room is giant microwave. lol They serve their purpose.

I do always feel better with it on. I keep it near me & have it on during regular daylight hours since I have SAD. Its a good brightness. Pricey but maybe thats part of the scientific cost? Ive used it daily for 2 1/2 years so thankfully it is lasting!

I put this bulb in the main light fixture of my living room. It’s bright enough in the summer, we only need to use that light in the winter, which is perfect. Normally I do deal with some serious winter doldrums, or SAD. But last winter, I had the this light on all day, and I feel like it helped so much to keep my mood regulated and spirits up. Nothing perks you up like real sunlight and fresh air, but in the winter when it’s dark and cold, this lightbulb can really help.

Works normally, no issues

I bought this bulb towards the end of January and after about two months it started flickering and shutting off with increasing frequency. It's now six months later and it won't turn on at all. I bought this bulb in spite of the price, it was a little more than I wanted to spend on it but I hoped it would help with seasonal depression.I will say, it worked well for its purpose - I would turn it on at work, working in a dimly lit computer lab, and would start feeling a little better within 10 minutes... but then it would flicker on-off, on-off and finally stop working. 45 minutes later it'd come back on all by itself, then 15 minutes later turn off again for another hour. The bulb was in a 60w desk lamp, not enclosed so I know it's not overheating. I can touch the base of the bulb when it shuts off and it's warm but not hot. I wish there was something I could do about it, my only choice at this point is to buy another one but I won't be buying another of this exact item.

My husband has been rather grouchy; no, he had been difficult to get along with the late fall/ winter months. I was ready to run away. I figured he was slightly depressed soI bought this bulb and put it in the lamp between our chairs. He had been more agreeable and easier to be around since I put this in place. Who knows maybe it helped me to more tolerant also.

Full spectrum light makes what it is you see with the eyes more real. I looked at my hand under full spectrum light and felt like I was seeing it straight for a change....not under yellow incandescent, nor florescent lights ( slight blue).Plus this like makes you fell like you are out from under the shadows of along dark winter. Smile.....

I just started using this bulb in a goose neck lamp, in the morning, for reading. It a bright white light. I use it for 30 minutes each morning. Does it make me feel happy? I give it a grade level of B so far, but the true test comes soon when the short New England days are upon us. I hope to review this again in February, when I usually feel the most "down". This is an LED bulb, so it should last for years. Give it a try if you can.
