BR30 LED Questions
I am looking for a brand that has a BR30 LED, 65watt equivalent, 2700k that does not have a slight delayed start after flicking the switch. I had the brand Utilitech BR30s and they were instant, but are not available at Lowes any longer. So far I have tried Sylvania and GE BR30s, and they both have the same slight millisecond delay when flicking the switch.
I have noticed that most of the LED bulbs have a plastic shell. When the lights get a bunch of hours on them, the plastic start to turn yellowish and effects the light output. Wonder if there are any glass BR30s to try?

I just bought my first Phillips BR40 this weekend and it works well and seems well-built. But can't comment on the longevity.
I stick with the big brands whenever I can, GE, Phillips, CREE.
I do buy a lot of Ecosmart as well, but for rental properties and such where I'm a bit less concerned about the quality or longevity. The price is right!
