I wonder who is manufacturing the LEDs for IKEA.. Must be one of the big players..

[@InsideOutElectronics]

Very nice question, it will be nice to know

[@mariepotteronline]

Great review

[@InsideOutElectronics]

Thank you for kind words ! Thank you for watching !

[@rogierius]

Thanks, bought a couple thanks to you. What type of dimmer would be suitable for this light bulb?

[@simonbeasley989]

I just got some 2w Solhetta GU10. Replaced 4.8w Osram, the Solhetta give virtually no heat.

Very efficient libulb, pretty much next gen led lighting

[@kingjohn5623]

Any comments on the colour temperature and the CRI?
Does the new IKEA lamp have a similar nice light as the old ledare?

[@InsideOutElectronics]

All my vids fron this point are shot with Solhetta, good cri, good color, but i do not have gear to measure CRI, i can just tell that i requires a little bit color correction in relation to old ledare.

[@TheRealJohnHooper]

Ikea is very open about CRI.. Many/most of their LED bulbs are now 90 CRI. Surprisingly the cheap E14 bulbs too.. However the cheapest E27 bulbs are CRI 80.. I think it it just a matter of time all their LEDs will be CRI 90, but they want to have some really cheap stuff on their shelves..

[@TheRealJohnHooper]

I just checked the website.. This is the LED2014G10 LED and Ikea claims it is 90 CRI..
Personally I can say that the new Ikea LEDs are really really good.. Even the cheap 80 CRI IMO are amazing..
However I always prefer filament bulbs just because of the look and the different way it spreads the light.. Just my personal opinion.. But they are considerable more expensive..

I just tested a few Solhetta leds and subjectively, they have a very high CRI -much higher than the previous Ryet

[@InsideOutElectronics]

@@xhobv02 Nice, how did you tested this?

[@Smile71717]

I have Solhetta E27 806 lm lightbulbs and unfortunately they flicker :(

[@InsideOutElectronics]

Thank you for watching. Yes... those are flicker for sure. But seems like 1600 not.

[@Alphasmsn]

Have you done the teardown, still waiting for it?

[@InsideOutElectronics]

I have done tear down and event reverse-engineered the board.... stay tuned :D

[@danieltroger1761]

Would love to see it!

[@nuno9196]

Can I Connect this lights to Styrbar?

[@InsideOutElectronics]

Noo these are dumb lights

[@nuno9196]

@@InsideOutElectronics thank you so much. I can see I need lights that work with zigbee protocol if I am correct. I think I Will take a Look to the ikea bulbs again

[@arekx]

Oh, no teardown :(

[@InsideOutElectronics]

It is almost ready... Had to reverse engineer it first, it took time
