In my living room lamp is a 300watt Halogen light bulb,, thinky. That is a lot of power usages. It does make a nices amount of light and a good color temperature,, but that is a lot of power.
So I have been trying to replaces these R7S Halogen light bulb. With something less power hungry,, over the years,,, this is yet a try,, with two new 13 and 30 watt bulbs.

Thanks, Morton. I'm glad to find someone else attempting solutions....lol, I thought I was the only one spending money on 5 different kinds of lamps,lol. Thanks for taking the time to share this...it helped me out a lot.

You have to use an LED-dimmer. Normal dimmers (made for incandescent bulbs) doesn't work with LEDs (even dimmable LEDs). Try to bypass the dimmer built into the lamp. You even might need a dedicated LED driver instead of the one used to drive the Halogen lamp.

@MrLorgen 4 года назад

I think you are on the right track, normally these inline triac dimmers go up to 95-99% and causes the flicker because it's not clean ac power. No problem for incandescent bulbs.

@plasmar1 4 года назад

for the smaller lights if you can find philips led r7s lights, they seem brighter than average; I'm not quite sure about what actual type of lead's they use but definitely better than the Chinese ones I bought although more expensive

I was really hoping to find something that would replaces that 300watt in light output,, and not to expensive;-)

@plasmar1 4 года назад

@@MyPlayHouse hehe, I think if you want to try to do that you will have to maybe diy something with one of those circular cobs:P...... I think the design of the r7s's are a bit to restrictive for the time being; the Philips I was suggesting are at best similar to the lumens of 60 to 80watt~(haven't compared side by side).....

@michaelwill1337 4 года назад

Cool video. Bummer about the base breaking apart. I thought those filament-led lights (the last two you tried) would have zero flickering. I wonder if the dimmer is the culprit, or if lights can be made for certain hertz 50/60 and you have ones that don't match what your country has. just a guess. I would put an epilepsy warning up somewhere for this video. I don't have it but the flickering still got to me- i feel a little dizzy now. Kanye's video didn't bother me though.

@MyPlayHouse 4 года назад

Sometimes the flickering was worst on the camera, and sometimes you did not nearly get half of it :-/

@Seegalgalguntijak 4 года назад

The rolling shutter effect is a problem. It may be that the electronics is too small/enclosed to see, but if not, it will still flicker at 50Hz, so changing your camera setting from 25fps to 30fps may get rid of the rolling shutter.

@MyPlayHouse 4 года назад

Hi Mickey Rourke Thank You very much! I was thinking the same thing while editing,, specialty seeing all the lights becoming close to the same color, after the automatic white balance. :-/ Thank you for watching! :-)

@elliottsw 3 года назад

LED Bulbs need to be dimmed with an intelligent dimmer that uses pulse width modulation rather than dimmers designed for halogen bulbs which are just resistors. That's why some say they are dimmable but don't seem to be - you need a specific LED dimmer switch.

@elliottsw 3 года назад

I should add as well that they will flicker on camera because they turn on and off at 60Hz and your camera records at 60fps - a traditional bulb glows all the time so no flickering, LED bulbs turn on and off (twice) every time the AC voltage oscillates - the nice LED bulbs should in theory stay illuminated for more of the time than cheaper ones which is why some flicker more than others. Thanks for the video! :D

The flicker is the 50 hertz of the grid, because there is no DC convertion in between. The faster flicker could be 100 hertz because of bad electronics.

@MyPlayHouse 4 года назад

It seams more random than just 50Hz and did not flicker until the lamb had heated up.

7:15 min! It's standard! I know so many people who have similar lamps, and all of them (incl me) had the same issue! They thought "we can make a cheap and fast solution", but instead of covering the Concrete with a thicker layer of Gummi or plastic, they juts painted a layer over it, and through a period of time it started to crumble! It sucks!

@Seegalgalguntijak 4 года назад

These Halogen rod lamps that light up the ceiling aren't really good for LED replacements. That is why I have bought a lamp that is similar in shape, but has an E27 fittin in the top. There, I screw in an 18.5W Phillips LED or a 21.5W Osram (Ledvance) LED. They have the light output of a 130W or 150W incandescent bulb, and that's plenty of light! I spread of 4 of these similar things throughout my large room (which is about 25 m² I think), and now I can make it really bright.

@dashtesla 4 года назад

I had some of these in my lab turned on 24/7, the thing with these chinese leds they have really poor colour rendering index (CRI) and at least from my own experience they die really quickly i never bothered to take one apart but likely bad capacitors and maybe one led going bad and taking down an entire row since they're in series. I would say mine would last anywhere from 1-3 months 24/7 nowhere near the 30-50k hours LEDs are usually rated for which means you also have to add the extra cost of replacing them to the mix, they looked very similar to yours (the R7S) hopefully you'll have better luck than me.

@MyPlayHouse 4 года назад

Well I am not able to work with the blinking of the new ones. It does not help that the LED’s are good for 30-50k hours,, if the electronic is piss poor and dies after 200 hours :-/

@dashtesla 4 года назад

@@MyPlayHouse Mine had some visible flicker without dimmer with my own eyes as well and on camera, it's usually due to how they're designed, cheaper ones use capacitors to drop the voltage and puts a lot of stress on caps plus they're already low quality and running at really high temperatures, even with really good low-esr caps i don't think it's possible to design one of these that doesn't fail quickly with a reasonable light output as you would expect from a 300W-500W halogen which also serves as a space heater in the winter, and has perfect CRI. But make sure you're shooting at 50fps not 60/30fps since the 50hz frequency will affect them, also in some cases helps running them off straight DC (when possible/you have access to that voltage etc, cheap ones with capacitive drop can't do that) specially camera lighting or any lighting that's likely to be on camera at fps that doesn't match mains frequency. I also personally don't like warm white, most people do but i prefer daylight (5000-6000k) which is a good reason to replace any halogens.

Leds really don't cope well with a.c power, they store no energy to smooth over there on/off switch over events, mad flicker :-( There non linear response to a rising voltage doesnt help eather. A propper led a.c to d.c driver may be the only way. Never mind mort, it was a good test :-D

@MyPlayHouse 4 года назад

The LEDs didn’t flicker right away they only started flickering when they got warm.

@aarondynamics1311 3 года назад

@@MyPlayHouse I noticed that when I bought some LED MR16 bulbs to replace the 50W halogen bulbs we had, there were 10 of them in total. On 3 out of 4 circuits they started flickering immediately after pressing the switch but the three bulbs that were on the 4th circuit appeared to turn on normally, although some appeared brighter than others. After about 5 minutes they started flickering as well. The reason for this was that the existing transformers outputted 12VAC instead of the required 12VDC. I replaced the transformers with LED ones and that solved the problem - no flickering and the lights were equal brightness Edit: I think the difference in brightness was due to small differences in the output voltage of the transformers but if someone could explain why the LEDs initially operated normally on AC on one of the circuits I'd really appreciate it.

@jmonsted 4 года назад

Typical, you spend a small fortune on LEDs for it and it breaks. The reason you shouldn't touch the halogen bulbs is because it gets extremely hot and the oils from your fingers will make it potentially crack the glass. If you scrap the lamp and have no need for the bulbs, it seems like a good donation for Bigclivedotcom for him to play with. You could build a round piece of board covered in LED tape that fits in the bowl of the lamp.
