SANSI LED Grow Light Bulb for Seeds and Greens, Full Spectrum 10W Grow Light (150 Watt Equiv) with Optical Lens for Indoor Plant, High PPFD, E26 Base, 2-Pack

I know very little about plants but I wanted something green in my bathroom which gets very little natural light. I picked up this 10W plant bulb, and a thyme plant from the big orange hardware store because it smells nice and is pet safe (parrot), and it’s worked out great. I put the bulb in an inexpensive desk lamp I got here on Amazon. You can see the plant reaching for the light and it seems to be doing well.

Excellent light. I find it much more powerful compared to other 10 watt lights regardless if they are the halo type or bar style. One of Sansi's competitors charges 3 to 4 times as much for their product and doesn't offer the wide selection of wattages and specific designs. I've been using their bulbs for a while now and haven't had any operational issues with them, plus they have a fantastic warranty on their products. Over the past couple of months I have grown Basil, Parsley, Oregano, Cucumbers, Pumpkins, Coleus and Petunias and have had germination occur within 4 days. I attribute that to having the proper lighting.

**Update: Seller reached out and sent a replacement bulb. All is good...Bought two bulbs. Installed one the day I received them and it worked great. Opened and installed the second bulb a little over a month after that and it doesn’t work. Unfortunately it was 7 days past the return period. So I’m out a bulb due to manufacturer defect.

The bulb is good, but the lifespan is not as long as advertised. It said the lifespan is 25,000 hours. I bought in July 2023, and 2 bulbs are all broken now in April 2025. Assume they are turned on 16 hours per day, the lifespan is only ~10,000 hours.

Helped to keep plants alive over the winter. Used them as supplemental lights at the edges of a larger plant lighting setup. Used with a Wi-Fi switch with dawn to dusk function.

I'm using these for some built-in overhead lighting for an aquarium, with a in-wall light switch timer.First, these lights will not work with a dimmer. I don't mean they won't dim (they won't, of course) but they refused to work even with a dimmer set to full power. I know this because originally my light fixture had a dimmer, and I was waiting for the timer to arrive in the mail, so I thought I'd just plug these bulbs in and manually turn the lights on, just leaving the dimmer on full. However, they spazzed out when I tried, so I had to wait until the timer arrived/install it in order to use them.Second, they don't seem to get nearly as hot as some others claimed. I believe the instructions indicated that they are not to be used in an enclosed light fixture, so maybe they would get much hotter in that sort of situation. If they really consume only 10W (which I haven't tested yet), then they literally cannot produce more than 10W in heat, whereas 60W incandescents put out something like 50W into heat. I'm definitely not complaining about their heat output.Their light is in a fairly narrow beam. I think the listing said 30 degrees or so. I had to raise my hanging light fixtures significantly to get good coverage on my aquarium. I would have preferred a slightly wider angle, but that's just personal preference. It's not really a flaw.The bulbs are pretty small, so they fit in a small fixture. They are a bit smaller than a typical incandescent ~60W bulb.They are pretty bright. I haven't measured the brightness, but they are mostly sufficient for my aquarium. I say mostly, because my aquarium has a lot of floating plants, which block a lot of light for the lower, submerged plants. I ended up buying the slightly brighter but very similar 15W/"200W Equivalent" Sansi bulbs, and I will probably use these 10W bulbs for some other project later.I also can't really speak to the light spectrum that they output. Most aquarium plants aren't super picky, but I'm also growing some emersed plants riparium-style and they are a bit pickier. Time will tell if they like the light that these output. However, just eyeballing it, they look pretty good.I also definitely cannot speak to longevity yet. Mine are on about 8hr a day, switched using an automatic timer, so not a lot of on/off wear (which seems to stress the cheap power supplies found in most LED bulbs), but a lot of "on" hours are added daily. I'll report back if and when they might break.

Great lightbulb , I was moving my light and I dropped it thought I was going to have to switch the bulb but no i plugged it back in and it worked . Great product

These work great! Great value!
