I actually bought and compared the LED bulb which is the best ~ Actual brightness edition ~



As an advantage of the LED, it does not blink at high speed like a fluorescent lamp, so it does not feel any shimmering, it does not get hot like an incandescent lamp or a fluorescent lamp, and the power consumption is low, and as with a fluorescent light, it is dim. It is said that there is nothing like that, but what kind of brightness is actually in fact, and what are the differences in LED bulbs of each company?

That's why the previous "Spec & PriceAs we announced in ", as it actually shines under the same conditions, how bright is it and what kind of shade will it become? I tried experimenting the anxious point. Moreover, I also made notes on sensory parts and impressions that I do not know in the image. It is greatly appreciated by each company that it will help you to know the LED light bulb of your choice of brightness and color. Please refer to the part that is likely to be helpful.

Details of experiment results are given below.
◆ Comparing white LED light bulbs
Let's start by comparing from white LED light bulbs. How the light is spreading around the light bulb, how the poinsettia underneath is colored, and what is the part of the shadow? By looking at the parts such as, you can understand each feature well. When shooting, in order to make it feel the same as what you saw on the spot, you set all the manual, not auto, to the same value.

sharp"DL-L 601 N", 3980 yen, power consumption 7.5 W.


Hitachi"LDA 7 N / D", 5380 yen, power consumption 6.6 W. The brightness is considerably low as much as the power consumption is smaller than the earlier Sharp. Despite that the price is higher than Sharp.


Ecolica "ECL-HPL 40 WH", 3980 yen, power consumption 3.5 W. I noticed that after experimenting, I noticed that this is the type that will be like a spotlight instead of the general lighting type that diffuses among the six companies this time. According to the official website there is also a diffuse light type properly, so please make this a reference level to the last. If you accidentally buy a spot type it will be like this. However, in the range that falls within the light distribution angle, the brightness is higher than Sharp and Hitachi up to the previous time, so the power consumption is low and the price is also cheap.


Panasonic "LDA 7 D-A 1", 3980 yen, power consumption 6.9 W. It is the same brightness as sharp, but the impression that this one diffuses widely. The price is the same for both Sharp and Panasonic, but Sharp is 560 lumens, Panasonic is 570 lumens, so it is only a few but Panasonic is more numerically bright. It is rather sensuous to say that it is "the same degree of brightness, but the range spreads a little" rather than saying it is bright.


NEC "ELL6N - 100V", 3980 yen, power consumption 6.0 W. It is hard to understand from the photo, but it feels kind of dark. Hitachi has 340 lumens and NEC has 350 lumens, so it looks roughly the same. However, since Hitachi is 5380 yen and NEC is 3980 yen, if this level of brightness is acceptable, NEC with lower power consumption deals better.


Toshiba"LEL-AW 8 N", 6980 yen, power consumption is 8.7 W. The price is the highest and the power consumption is the highest, but as you can see it is bright anyhow. As a numerical value, it is still overwhelming at 810 lumens. This is the level that you feel that there is no problem even if you exchange it with a normal fluorescent lamp type bulb.


So I tried arranging them from left to right in order of power consumption. After all, the more power consumption, the brighter the ... ... It should be, but Hitachi is too dark. And you can see that Ecolica is doing quite well.


◆ Compare the bulb color LED light bulbs
Next let's compare with LED bulb of light bulb color system. As before, how the light spreads around the bulb, how the poinsettia underneath it develops color, and what is the shadow part? It is a mechanism that you can know each characteristic well by looking at the part such as. Also at the time of shooting, in order to make it feel the same as what you saw on the scene, I set all the manual, not auto, to the same value.

sharp"DL-L 601 L", 3980 yen, power consumption 7.5 W. It feels like golden color somehow.


Hitachi"LDA 7 L / D", 5380 yen, power consumption 6.6 W. Light has not reached the bottom ... ... it is too dark. In other words, this is the best for cases where you are in trouble if you are too bright.


Ecolica "ECL-HPL 40 WWH", 3980 yen, power consumption 3.5 W. If it is within the range of the light distribution angle, the light will arrive so quickly that it is very bright.


Panasonic "LDA 7L-A1", 3980 yen, power consumption 6.9 W. It is not a blatant color like Sharp but a soft shade like it is. I feel that the color of Sharp is quite too tight.


NEC "ELL 6 L - 100 V", 3980 yen, power consumption 6.0 W. It is slightly thin compared to the light bulb color.


Toshiba"LEL-AW8L", 6980 yen, power consumption is 8.7 W. Since the power consumption is the highest, the brightness is also the strongest.


So I tried arranging them from left to right in order of power consumption. What it says, the color is too different, it can only be said that it is an area of ​​your choice. Anyway, if you want to be bright, you become Toshiba, but it is a difficult point to have a lot of power consumption.


◆ Compare whether to really replace a fluorescent light type bulb
At this stage, I thought "Do you really replace a fluorescent lamp type light bulb?", The same Toshiba's "Bulb type fluorescent lamp neoball Z real PRIDE (pride)I bought it. It is daytime white "EFA 15EN / 10-PD" (1080 yen, power consumption 10.0 W) and bulb color "EFA 15 EL / 10-PD" (1080 yen, power consumption 10.0 W).


This is "EFA 15EN / 10-PD" daytime white, 1080 yen, power consumption 10.0 W. The LED light bulb will brighten immediately after lighting, but the fluorescent light is about this brightness just after lighting up. According to the instructions, the brightness will stabilize if more than 20 minutes pass.


This is after 20 minutes or more. It certainly gets brighter than it is right after. If it is an LED light bulb, the time of 20 minutes will be zero, so that is also merit.


So I tried to compare the Toshiba LED bulb which was the brightest of the six companies and the fluorescent lamp type bulb. As you can see, the LED bulb is brighter. Both the LED bulb and the fluorescent lamp type bulb are the same 810 lumens as the numerical value, but because there is a difference in the characteristics of the manner of lighting of the LED and the fluorescent lamp, it will be different in this way. So, if you use it as an alternative to an existing fluorescent lamp type light bulb, it seems that you still need about this Toshiba power consumption and brightness.


If the power consumption is high, it is bright and natural, but since the LED does not blink at high speed like a fluorescent light, it does not feel any sharpness, it does not get hot like an incandescent lamp or a fluorescent lamp, the power consumption is low, As soon as it lights up, there is no such thing as being dim. Is there such a merit as much as that price? It seems to be a judgment material.

Also, since the LED bulb has lower power consumption, it may be cheaper than the fluorescent lamp type in terms of total, but the fluorescent lamp type has a rated life of 12,000 hours, an LED bulb of 40,000 hours, Since the LED generally lasts about 3.3 times longer, if the fluorescent lamp type is 1080 yen it is 3.3 times that is about 3,500 yen It is feeling that the merit of making it an LED light bulb is quite high.

This time, the bulb color "EFA 15 EL / 10-PD", 1080 yen, power consumption 10.0 W. Immediately after lighting, this is the level of brightness.


A state after 20 minutes or more has passed. It is certainly becoming brighter.


So the result of comparing Toshiba's LED bulbs and fluorescent lamp type light bulbs among the six companies is the best. It does not compare too much ... ....


◆ Comparing white LED light bulbs in real environment
Again, not by experiment, I really do not know the difference unless you actually use it! So, this time I moved to my parents house, I actually exchanged the bulb with the LED bulb of each company and tried shooting. Again, as before, at the time of shooting, in order to make it feel the same as what I saw at the work site, I set all the manual, not auto, to the same value.

First of all, if this is a fluorescent light type bulb, Toshiba's "Bulb type fluorescent lamp neoball Z real PRIDE (pride)"EFA 15EN / 10-PD" (1080 yen, power consumption 10.0 W) in daylight white. Comparing with this as a reference, you can better understand what happens when you replace with an existing bulb. It is easy to understand if you carefully look at the brightness of the box above the chair right under the light bulb and the brightness of the ceiling, walls, floor and so on.


Toshiba"LEL-AW 8 N", 6980 yen, power consumption is 8.7 W. It's about dazzling rather than bright, but this is amazing. If you want a bright LED bulb.


sharp"DL-L 601 N", 3980 yen, power consumption 7.5 W. The feeling of white is slightly different.


Panasonic "LDA 7 D-A 1", 3980 yen, power consumption 6.9 W. I feel a little bluish.


Hitachi"LDA 7 N / D", 5380 yen, power consumption 6.6 W. The vicinity of the ceiling is bright, but this is a bit ... if the light has not reached the bottom ... ....


NEC "ELL6N - 100V", 3980 yen, power consumption 6.0 W. Although the top is dim, the light has reached properly down to the bottom.


Ecolica "ECL-HPL 40 WH", 3980 yen, power consumption 3.5 W. Because it is a spot type, I choose a place to use, but the atmosphere is almost like this. How cool, that's cool. There is a very nice atmosphere.


So, I tried to compare them all. Only the left end is a fluorescent light type, and the other is the order of the highest power consumption in order from the left.


◆ Comparing LED bulbs of light bulb color system in real environment
In the same way I replaced the bulb with the LED bulb of each company and shot it. Again, as before, at the time of shooting, in order to make it feel the same as what I saw at the work site, I set all the manual, not auto, to the same value. Since the color of the bulb is different at each company, we have not taken the fluorescent light type judging that this time it is meaningless to compare.

Toshiba"LEL-AW8L", 6980 yen, power consumption is 8.7 W. It feels like a color of a sunset rather than a warmth with a feeling of brightly illuminating evenly.


sharp"DL-L 601 L", 3980 yen, power consumption 7.5 W. Because it becomes golden color everything, gorgeous feeling.


Panasonic "LDA 7L-A1", 3980 yen, power consumption 6.9 W. Is it a common light bulb color? I get the impression.


Hitachi"LDA 7 L / D", 5380 yen, power consumption 6.6 W. If you do a haunted house, there will be only this, it is exquisitely directing the dim feeling ... ....


NEC "ELL 6 L - 100 V", 3980 yen, power consumption 6.0 W. It seems that the old Japanese style toilet was like this light.


Ecolica "ECL-HPL 40 WWH", 3980 yen, power consumption 3.5 W. Clearly it seems like it is being used in a gallery or something.


So, I tried to compare them all. How it says, the light bulb color comes out very personally, so it is better to choose with preference.


Tips for choosing LED bulbs
As a result of experimenting as much as knack or merit, I understood the following things.

· If you need the same degree of brightness as the bulb you are currently using, you need an LED bulb with the same lumen value
This is an important point if you buy an LED lightbulb as a substitute for the bulb you are using now, if you are asking for "the same brightness". You can also see the comparison between the experimental environment and the actual environment, but it is quite important how far the light will reach.

· The LED bulb has a longer lifespan of about 3 times so that it saves the labor of replacing certainly
Although it depends on the type currently being used, it seems to last about 3 times, so the difference should be blatantly blurred as the time to keep lit continues longer. Also, it will not get as hot as the fluorescent light type, or it will not get hot at all, it's a tepid temperature, so there is no worry that lamp hoods will scorch or deform due to heat.

· Do not shake
The part which I do not understand even if looking at the image is kore. Since the fluorescent light flashes at high speed, it will become easy for the eyes to become tired easily because of this sharpness as it deteriorates to a certain extent, but it is not felt at all. As long as it is a place like a toilet or washbasin, as long as you work in something for a long time, you can feel this difference clearly.

· It will be the brightness of MAX value in a moment
I think that this is blatantly compared with the fluorescent light type, but it is quite overwhelming advantage to become the maximum brightness in haste at the moment of turning on the switch. It takes a lot of time to gradually brighten up and it does not stabilize, it gets brighter from the beginning, so it feels like a good mood.

· Bulb color is carefully careful because the color is different considerably by the manufacturer
To be honest, I did not think that there was a difference so far. It is safe to choose your favorite color.

Although LED light bulbs tend to close up less power consumption, it can be realized that there are many other merits other than that when actually used, and in conclusion, it is said that "high deserves to buy" . Hopefully it is a feeling that there is nothing to say if the price goes down slightly. I would be pleased if the above data is helpful.
