Don't get in a rush. The next few years will bring another generation or two of much-improved lamps. No, I haven't used these particular lamps. but IME, Feit = cheap crap, the true cost of which will be apparent after they start failing in 6 months....
And welcome to CPF!
I've been using several brand names of LED bulbs including Feit over the last couple years and have had no failures of any of them including lumen fading.
Just keep 'em cool, and even marginal LEDs should last.
I wouldn't mind having high CRI leds, so long as you could have a better CCT choice.
2700K, I'll pass.
... I cant really find any info on them ...
I picked these up from my local warehouse store
Nice find on this HIGH CRI lamp!
A little Google search finds this warehouse is Costco for $10 each. In store AND online. Plenty of insightful reviews to read about this lamp on their website also.
Incredible price, considering the Philips L-Prize is STILL selling for $30 on Ebay! L-Prize still is the gold standard for many in the high CRI (and high lumens per watt) department.
Good advice from MichaelW above, by keeping them COOL!
I keep all my 60W Cree and L-Prize Philips lamps massively dimmed. I'm sure they'll last into the next century. But by that time they'll be laughing AGAIN, saying "I can't BELIEVE that they used to light their homes by forcing photons to jump off of a p-n junction! How LAME, why that is kind of like a mini carbon arc lamp. Ha ha."
750 lumens off 13 watts? I bet there's neodymium glass filtering going on, like the similar high-CRI Cree "TrueWhites".
I passed too (bought one at Costco and subsequently returned it). I can't stand 2700K; whether LED or CFL.Just keep 'em cool, and even marginal LEDs should last.

Personally, in MY home, I prefer 4100K for kitchen and garage, and 3000k everywhere else.
Same bulb at Costco; a lot less expensive (4-pack for$69.99).
