Either Don't Buy It Or Buy A Brighter One
»
Yes, I read the reviews before I bought this, but I decided to buy it anyway.
This light is so dim and so blue that it's not practical. It's equal to about a 15 watt bulb, not 40.
If you want to try an LED bulb then buy a brighter one based on the lumen rating. After searching I've found a 13 watt LED bulb with 900 lumen, but it's $70. Subtract wasted money from this and it's really only $60.

Useful for some purposes
»
As others have mentioned, it's pretty dim. I use it to light up a dark area inside that leads to the garage. At night, it provides just enough light to see where you're going. I replaced a 10-watt compact fluorescent with this bulb, and this 3-watt LED bulb is maybe half as bright. Fortunately, the previous bulb was brighter than I needed, so now I'm benefitting from the lower energy use.

Very Dim Light

Westinghouse 03466 Nanolux 3-Watt G19 LED Bulb, White
Bought the bulb for back lighting behind my TV. Currently using a 40 watt incandescent which is a little too bright. Didn't mind the super white "blue" color, just not enough light here. The haunted house description is very accurate. No way could I read anything with this light in the room.

These are white not blue

Blue?? These are white not blue. They are also not the horrible red/yellow like an incandescent bulb. I have 30 of these - the only lights in my house. Save lots of energy and have brilliant white light.

night light or porch light

This LED Bulb by Westinghouse, is not as bright as other LED's. But works good for my porch light and would work for a night light.
