Ever hesitate to buy a CFL or LED because you don't like the way it looks or it doesn't fit your fixture? This award winning Panasonic LED might be the answer to your lightbulb problems.
With the Lightbulb Wars, we've been reviewing a variety of compact fluorescent and LED style bulbs to get ready for the upcoming incandescent phase-out. One thing we've noticed, and consumers have complained about, is the new energy fluorescent bulbs just don't look like the incandescent bulbs we've all grown up with.
This Panasonic LED Nostalgic Clear Type (LDAHV4L27CG) is a Good Design Award 2011 winner. It was modeled after the classic Edison style bulb, with clear glass and visible filament, and designed to recreate the 'atmosphere and quality of incandescent' light.

If I could get LED light bulbs that looked like normal freaking light bulbs I might actually buy them.
Love this idea, but really, a 20 watt equivalent? What would you use that for? What would be really nice is an LED bulb that sheds light down when it is in a normal lamp. Most have plastic on the bottom half of the round area of the bulb, which means most of the light goes up. Not good for reading by a lamp.
