DO NOT buy the cheap ones from china. I've seen them fail time after time after time....


Superbrightleds.com sells good quality bulbs. I've spent a good amount of money with them and would have no issue buying more if I ever need to.

Also, viewing angle of the LEDs are important. You want the viewing angle to be 360 degrees or real close to it. Viewing angle can be thought of as 'light dispersion'. Incandecent bulbs throw light all the way around them in every direction. The LEDs must mimic this in order for light dispersion to be constant.

Stop diss'ing my chinese bulbs! LOL

He's right.  I've done that a couple of times.  They can't handle the vibration and start failing pretty quick.
