Many LED bulbs have performance issues, especially in fixtures.

There’s such a large market now it’s hard to identify quality product. Good news is that the prices have fell to the point that the ROI in energy savings is very short.

There's the Lighting Facts labels so you could at least see a 3rd party validated lumen output and color temperature. If you've seen the labels that look like nutrition facts on LED bulb packaging, those. Also served to track the overall progress of the LED industry.

Just got defunded.
