Simba Lighting Bug Non-Attracting Yellow LED Bulb for Outdoor Porch, Night Light, Dusk-to-Dawn Auto On/Off, 2-Pack

When it comes to bug-repelling light bulbs, there are a few important facts to consider. If your area is already heavily infested with bugs, it's recommended to thoroughly clean the area before installing these light bulbs. Additionally, please be aware that if there are other light sources in the adjacent area, even from inside the house, the bugs may still be attracted to that light, despite using these yellow light bulbs. It's important to note that while these types of light bulbs work for the majority of cases, there may be instances where they do not effectively repel the bugs. If the product doesn't work for your specific situation, you can make a return or send a message to the seller on Amazon.

These light bulbs are equipped with dusk-to-dawn photo sensors, which means they will automatically turn on at dusk and turn off at dawn. It's important to note that a common misunderstanding among buyers is that they test the functionality of these bulbs during the day when it's still bright. To properly test the functionality, you should wait until nighttime. If you require the bug lights to be on during the day, you can order the version without the dusk-to-dawn auto on/off sensors.

When purchasing the correct LED light bulbs, it's crucial to consider the base, shape, and dimensions. The base is a standard E26 medium screw with a 26mm diameter, and the shape is a standard A19 (A60 in Europe) with a diameter of 2.36 inches and a length of 4.25 inches. Please ensure that the light bulb base matches your light fixture and can fit inside the enclosure if applicable. Keep in mind that with the equipped photo sensor, the presence of other adjacent light sources within 3 feet may affect the auto on/off feature.

In terms of lighting features, these LED light bulbs operate on 110V, 120V, or 130V, with a wide 240-degree beam angle. They have an orange plastic cover and are not dimmable. The dusk-to-dawn sensor automatically turns the lights on when the surrounding luminosity drops below 20 lux, and they instantly turn on without any delay. These bulbs are mercury-free and do not emit UV or IR light. They offer 85% energy savings compared to traditional incandescent light bulbs and have a lifetime of 30,000 hours (27 years with an average of 3 hours of use per day). They are CE and RoHS compliant, and come in a pack of 2.

The light temperature of these LED bulbs is 2000K, which produces an amber (yellow/orange) color, similar to the warm glow of a candle. This is much dimmer than the traditional incandescent light output, and is not recommended for tasks that require bright lighting, such as reading. Traditional light bulbs in the warm white/soft white range of 2700-3000K will appear much brighter, even at the same output power and luminosity.

These 6-watt, 500-lumen LED bulbs are equivalent to a 40-watt incandescent, and they utilize high-quality SMD LED chips. They offer 85% energy savings, resulting in an average household energy cost of only $0.7 per year. With their 30,000-hour lifespan, these bulbs can last for up to 27 years with 3 hours of daily use.
