Alopee 4-Pack 194 LED Bulb Soft Warm White 3000K 168 LED Bulb DC 12-24V

I installed 2 of these in the front "dome" lamp positions in a 2014 Chevy Tahoe SSV. This was not so much for more light, as the vehicle has 2x 212-2 incandescent bulbs in each of the (count 'em!) SIX dome light positions (2x front, 2x mid, 2x rear), plus a separately switched aftermarket warm white or red dome light in back of the front two factory lights. However, the 6x 212-2 bulbs do draw significant current, and modern starting batteries don't like that a lot. I measured one of these well used** 212-2 bulbs as drawing 0.74 amps at 12.8 battery volts = 9.47 watts. Six of them would be almost 4.5 amps. I guesstimate new bulbs would draw at least 6 amps. That's not "awful", but in a situation where the vehicle may be sitting turned off yet with a good amount of the lights usage, such as at a camping spot... Replacing the 212-2's up front gave me a TON of good quality warm white light. It's a little less yellow-orange than the 212-2's, esp. with the engine off, so I'd say a 3000K rating is just about right, and with a nice spectrum overall. It's almost as good as a name brand indoor / 120v AC warm white bulb, IMO. Map reading is much easier, which is great for my gettin' old eyes! The disadvantage is that now there is much too much light to have even the passenger side on while driving at night. There's no manual dimmer function for the dome lights, so if I'm driving and wifey needs to get to something (or vice versa), then the aftermarket light is further back and less bright. :-) Fade out of the LED lights cuts off a little more abruptly at the end of the fade, than do the 212-2's, but it's not a problem. I've noticed no problems with flickering, etc., but, again, the dimming function in this SSV version of the Tahoe has been defeated. That all said, I may well try out some even lower current LED bulbs here -- I see some on Amazon rated at about 1/2 the lumens and just 0.9 watts which would be only 0.07 amps. If those behave, I may put one of the lesser bulbs in the passenger front position and two in the middle dome lights, leaving the stronger bulbs over the driver and over the cargo compartment. These bulbs may have some good possibilities for emergency lights that take 211-2 or 212-2 bulbs, also, IF line voltage cutoff or turn on spikes making it through the power supply are not a problem. (I'm thinking "not", as good quality home LED bulbs seem reasonably resistant to "everyday" line voltage variations. However, check with the manufacturer...) Update: 10/5/2024 -- These bulbs have been in the Tahoe for almost a year now, with no problems noted. The brightness without the harshness of lights in the 5000k and up range is much appreciated. These are probably brighter than need be for the 2nd row seats (middle dome lights), but, until I add something else in the rear for camping uses, the work pretty well in the rear dome light positions too - the only issue being that they do draw more current than some lower lumen lamps, so you don't want to forget and leave them switched manually "on". I did edit my original review slightly for clarity and accuracy, tonight, but, none of those impressions have changed significantly. Overall, this is a good product. It is not "the cheapest", but the price is reasonable for the performance. I'd like to see the seller offer a 10 or 12 pack, or some other quantity discount. :-)

100% brighter! Literally, they are 2x as bright as my stock filament bulbs. They also feel & look solid like they are made of quality. They are definitely about a 4500k color, matches the stock bulbs, just much brighter! I've used the 6000k color LEDs before and they are jarring at night, I prefer how much easier these are on the eyes. You can't find many things made of quality anymore especially on Amazon but these are great! They feel firm and solid, I don't expect them to break and they look like they're built well too. I usually don't leave reviews on Amazon but I was impressed with just their appearance and how sturdy built they looked when unpacking, I felt compelled to encourage anyone else looking at these to get them! Honestly, I would have paid twice as much for these after trying them.

I really like this brand! It is one of the very few that do not advertise on brightness because having blindingly bright bulbs is not the goal. These bulbs have great neutral color (especially for their soft white and 5000K products) that offers a better color rendering performance. The color is similar to a factory/stock product and that is exactly what I am looking for. For interior lights, they are brighter than the filament counterparts but not so bright that they make the cabin a glow dome when viewed from the outside at night. For this particular model, it equips with aluminum heat sink, and the build quality is above average. I am returning this model because I mis-measured the dimension but the claimed dimension is actually quite accurate.

These didn't fit my 2014 Subaru Forester but worked in the 2011 Honda Civic. The ends on these are a little rounded and won't stay in the socket. The ends need to be more of a point on them because the socket on the Subaru have small round holes and if the bulb ends have a point on them they will sit in the holes and not keep popping out like these did. Happy with light output definitely brighter than the halogen one that was in there. Glad that they're not the bright white light.

Ok, pretty happy with these bulbs. The color warmth is just about perfect, so they are not annoyingly blue. But also not too yellow/orange. Brightness is more than enough for the purpose, but not so bright as to be painful if behind a stock diffuser. And so far no random blinking. And I haven't noticed any 'bulb-out' messages in my car yet. Still too early to say out long they will last, but at this price I would be happy if they just lasted 1 year. And the fit was totally fine. I used these for interior lighting and for the license plate illumination. It's perfect for trunk or rear seat lighting. And is a bit overkill for the license plate purpose, especially if your car uses too bulbs. But at least every cop that follows me will be able to read my plate super easy! (and it lights up the road behind me a little bit as a bonus.

NOT 31mm fit. These were 34-35mm fit totally unusable

These are essentially the exact same size as a traditional 6411 incandesent bulb. These fit my old dome lamp housing perfectly. The light output is much brighter than the old regular lamp, and this uses 1/5 the power: 2 watts compared to 10 watts for the old one. This runs a lot cooler. The color is advertised as "Warm White" 3000K and I believe this is correct. The light color is not strong amber, but it's not harsh white either. It's a soft amber; very pleasing. The only other question is: Will this last?

brightness and light quality are good but i broke 2 of 4 just trying to get them in and out of the socket and into the lens fixture. it's a tight fit into the fixture because the bulb end is so much bigger than a standard 194 bulb. i also had to add solder to the connection wires on the bulbs because the part that plugs into the socket is thinner and has only 1 thin contact wire whereas the old 194's had a looped wire effectively giving you double the contact area.

Excellent, replaced my existing bulbs with these and they are great

Je voulais remplacer des ampoules basiques pour avoir plus de lumière dans l'habitacle (deux au plafond, une dans le coffre et une dans la boite à gant, Xsara Picasso), mais quand-même conserver un éclairage chaud plutôt que blanchâtre typique des LEDs. Celles si reproduisent très bien cet effet, en étant bien plus lumineuses que des ampoules W5W classiques. À voir au long terme.

Perfectas sustitutas de las tipo 921, en mi caso para sustituir las del interior de la autocaravana, luz cálida. Hace un mes que las tengo. / ACTUALIZACIÓN: después de más de un año funcionan a la perfección con un uso intensivo.

Non mi piacciono le luci fredde, e queste sono delle rarissime eccezioni! Montate senza problemi in abitacolo Opel Mokka e Nissan Micra. Giusta luminosità: intensa, ma non abbagliante. Per la durata... vedremo.

Used to replace filament bulbs in my American 5th wheel caravan. All bulbs worked perfectly and put out more light than previous bulbs all whilst using minimal power.
