TAIYALOOG8 LED Bulb Dimmable 3W Equivalent to G8 Halogen Bulb 20W-25W, T4 JCD Type Bi-Pin G8 Base, AC 120V G8 Bulb Warm White 3000K for Under Cabinet Light, Under Counter Kitchen Lighting (10 Pack)

I recently upgraded my under cabinet hockey puck lighting with the TAIYALOO G8 LED Bulbs, and I must say, they offer an excellent combination of functionality and mood-setting aesthetics. Here's my take on these dimmable LED bulbs.The first thing worth noting is the correct fit for the G8 bulb socket. The TAIYALOO G8 LED Bulb is designed to seamlessly replace traditional G8 halogen bulbs, making the transition hassle-free. They fit snugly into my under counter hockey puck lighting, providing a clean and polished appearance.The dimmable feature of these bulbs adds another layer of versatility. While slightly dimmer than the halogen bulbs they replaced, the TAIYALOO G8 LED Bulbs deliver a cozy ambiance that is perfect for mood lighting. The subtle illumination is ideal for creating a relaxed atmosphere, making these bulbs an excellent choice for spaces where softer lighting is preferred.Despite being slightly dimmer than their halogen counterparts, the energy-efficient 3W of power consumption in the TAIYALOO G8 LED Bulbs is a significant advantage. The trade-off in brightness is well worth the energy savings. Additionally, these LED bulbs stay cool so I don't mind leaving them on in the evenings.In summary, the TAIYALOO G8 LED Bulbs are a correct fit for G8 sockets, seamlessly integrating into under counter hockey puck lighting. While they may be slightly dimmer than traditional halogen bulbs, the dimmable feature makes them an excellent choice for creating mood lighting in various spaces. If you're looking for a blend of functionality, energy efficiency, and ambiance, these LED bulbs are a solid option for your lighting needs.I’ll update on longevity after I’ve had these a while.

I had been looking for some time for an LED replacement for the 120v xenon G8 bulbs that came with the original under-cabinet lighting in our kitchen. Those bulbs ran far, FAR too hot ... dangerously hot if left on for any length of time. After reading reviews on several G8 LED bulbs, I settled on these. I'm glad I did! Painless, drop-in replacement. Warm light that works beautifully in the kitchen, no heat, no buzz, no flickering!If you have a dimmer that is not made specifically for LED lighting, you'll probably see flickering when you're not all the way on the high setting. Don't blame that on the bulbs! After all, the listing specifically states that they will flicker at low settings.

*****UPDATE*****Their customer service saw my negative review and contacted me advising they did not receive my 2 emails and they wanted to make it right. They asked questions about my situation and gave ideas of how I might be able to adjust these bulbs to possibly make them work. Once they came to a conclusion they would not work, they sent me out a different set of LEDs as replacement...free of charge. I received them the other day and they fit my puck lights like a glove. If you have puck lights, order these ones instead:https://smile.amazon.com/Dimmable-Equivalent-20W-25W-Halogen-Bi-Pin/dp/B07PMB5NQH/ref=sr_1_38?dchild=1&keywords=TAIYALOO&qid=1589996005&sr=8-38These are definitely the right bulbs for puck lights. Haven't seen them at night so will report back on the warmth.After doing a little research I have come to find that LED lights require LED compatible switches. As a "do it yourself-er" I did not know this and thought that LEDs were plug & play, and since my current switch was only a couple years old I thought it would work fine. That is not the case. So the flashing and the bulbs not turning off (from leakage current) are most likely due to the incompatibility of the switch and not a problem with the LEDs themselves. Am working on replacing the switch and again will report back.***HINT*** The puck lights will only flash and leak if ALL the bulbs in the chain are LEDs. As a work around for my situation, in my chain of 6 puck lights I installed 5 of them with LEDs and left a halogen bulb in the sixth. While the glow from the halogen is a little different there is no flickering and no leakage whatsoever. This will work just fine until I get my new LED compatible dimmer!In review...after researching and learning a lot about LEDs I have come to find that Taiyaloo's product is pretty solid. It's unfortunate they did not see my earlier emails as their customer service is pretty awesome and they would have never received my bad review if they had responded originally. No worries...they are making up for it now and are earning their stellar reputation. The one knock I will give them is suggesting that these LEDs are "Ideal for under counter kitchen lighting, under cabinet lighting and puck light, etc." Many other reviewers of these LEDs also complained these were too big for their puck lights. If they instead steered puck light users to the replacement bulbs they sent me (link above), the reviews on these would be a lot higher.*****OLD REVIEW***So I purchased these LEDs for puck lights that we have in our kitchen. I was worried if they would work or not but still purchased them because of the great reviews on the lights in the equally great reviews on the customer service for this company. When I receive the lights I had many issues. First off, like others have commented the lights are not warm enough, and secondly once the LEDs were installed I could not put the covers back on the puck lights. Figured…No problem. With the great reviews on their customer service will make it right. Nope! Emailed the company twice and both emails got bounced back as undeliverable. Unfortunately I did not notice the second bounce back until after the return window closed so I got stuck with them.Since I now owned them I figured I might as well use them. There are two sets of puck lights in my kitchen (one set of in cabinet lights and one set of under cabinet lights) run with a single pole double dimmer and switch. Since these LEDs did not match the warmth of my current lights, I decided to use the LEDs for my under counter lights and left the other bulbs in the in counter lights. Got them installed and besides not being warm enough and not being able to fit the covers back on, they lit up and worked. Unfortunately they wouldn’t stop working. When I turned the switch off the LEDs with them too it’s very lowest setting but not turn off. To make things worse when I turned the incabinet lights on with these lights being in their off position, they would start to flicker.These LEDs are absolutely worthless to me and I am very disappointed in this purchase and with this company. I warn all potential buyers to think twice about purchasing these since this company’s customer service is Now nonexistent which negates a lot of the earlier reviews. I am hoping someone in the company sees this and makes it right, but I’m not holding my breath. Will update this review if they do.
