Testing IKEA LED lamps

Good LED lamps are still quite expensive, and because of changes in exchange rates, they have become even more expensive.
One of the lowest prices for LED lamps now in IKEA stores.
I tested 11 actual LEDARE LED lamps, costing from 169 to 599 rubles.




Ikea lamps last year had problems with the pulsation (flickering) of light. The 7-watt candle plugs I tested had a ripple rate of 63%, which of course is no good. All new lamps have a ripple rate from 4 to 29%, which is quite acceptable for lighting residential premises (conventional incandescent bulbs have a ripple factor of 8-31%).
')
The device Lupine was used to measure the pulsation coefficient, and the Viso LightSpion device was used to measure the other parameters of the lamps. The equivalent of the power of incandescent lamps was determined by the results of my measurements of the parameters of 22 incandescent lamps . All photos of the visual comparison were made in manual exposure mode (ISO 125, 1/30, 1.8) with a white balance set to 3500K.

All lamps comply with the stated parameters, they all give a luminous flux even slightly larger than the manufacturer promises.



The table shows that all lamps have a high color rendering index (CRI), one of the lamps has a record value of 95.6. All the lamps tested, except for one, have a color temperature of about 2700K and give light similar to incandescent light.

All lamps can work with switches having an indicator.
Five lamp models support dimming (dimming).

Now more about the tested lamps. I'll start with the most powerful and most expensive lamp that can replace a 100-watt incandescent lamp.

1. Frosted ball 1000 lm 002.574.82 E27 LED1309G15 13 W, dimmable. 599 rub.

The lamp gives almost 1100 lumens, it has a high CRI of 92.5, it is only 5 mm longer than ordinary lamps and has a standard diameter of 60 mm. The lamp supports brightness control, however, the minimum brightness during dimming is only about half the full brightness. Due to the matt ceiling with a diameter larger than the body, the lamp has a wide illumination angle of 233 °.



When visually comparing with a 95 W incandescent lamp, it can be seen that the LED lamp shines a little brighter, while its light is very similar to the incandescent light.




2. Frosted ball 600 lm 102.662.21 E27 LED1339G10 10 W dimmable. 399 rub.

This lamp is very similar to the previous one. It gives almost 640 lumens, it has a high CRI of 94.2. The minimum brightness when dimming is also about 50% of full brightness, when using dimmers the lamp hums at any brightness (I tested it with an IKEA dimmer and a small Chinese dimer on the wire). The illumination angle is 232 °.



When visually comparing with a 60 W incandescent lamp, it can be seen that the LED lamp shines with approximately the same brightness, but its light is slightly yellower than that of an incandescent lamp.




3. Frosted ball 600 lm 4000K 702.871.07 E27 LED1402G8K4 8 W dimmable. 399 rub.


www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/70287107
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-70287107-e27-led1402g8k4





This is the only lamp in the test, which has a neutral white light with a color temperature of 4000K. This light is better suited for office or business premises. Externally, the lamp is exactly the same as the previous one. It gives a luminous flux of 687 lumens, its CRI is 83.7, the illumination angle is 234 °. Like the previous lamp, when dimming, it buzzes, though not so loud. The minimum level of dimming is also about half the brightness.



Visually comparing a lamp with such a color temperature with an incandescent lamp is incorrect. All that can be seen is that its light is much colder and due to this it seems brighter.




4. Transparent ball 600 lm 003.014.23 E27 LED1423G9 8.6 W dimmable. 399 rub.


www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/00301423
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-00301423-e27-led1423g9





Unlike the other ten, this lamp was not made in China, but in Germany and differs significantly from the previous ones. She has a transparent cover and the original light diffusion system. The lamp gives a luminous flux of 592 lumens, which almost corresponds to the declared 600 lm, it has a high CRI of 92.1, the illumination angle is 196 °. The minimum level of dimming is about 10% brightness, while dimming the lamp is quietly buzzing.



The light of a lamp is very similar to the light of a 60 W incandescent lamp both in brightness and color.




5. Frosted ball 400 lm 102.666.93 E27 LED1221G7 6.3 W, 169 rubles.


www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/10266693
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-10266693-e27-led1221g7





The equivalent of a 40 watt incandescent bulb. Luminous flux 410 lm, CRI = 91.5, the angle of illumination is 255 °.



Visually, the lamp is slightly brighter than a 40-watt incandescent lamp, and its light is slightly yellower.




6. Matte ball 400 lm 802.489.93 E14 LED1221G7 6.3 W, 169 rub.


www.ikea.com/se/sv/catalog/products/80248993
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-80248993-e14-led1221g7





This lamp visually and in parameters differs from the previous one only in the base - E14, and not E27. I was sure that they had the same “filling”, however there are differences. The basic parameters are almost the same: 413 lm, CRI = 93.1, the illumination angle is 257 °, but the color temperature is much warmer - 2664K.



The visual comparison shows that the LED light is much more yellow than that of an incandescent lamp.




7. Small matte ball 200 lm 402.880.66 E27 LED1325G3 3.5 W, 199 rub.


www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/40288066
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-40288066-e27-led1325g3





This small light bulb gives quite a bit of light - less than a 25 W incandescent bulb - just 231 lm, CRI = 94.6, the angle of illumination is 212 °.



When visually compared with a 25 W incandescent lamp, it can be seen that the LED lamp is a little dimmer.



There is an analogue of this lamp under the base E14: 902.552.90 E14 LED1012G5 3.5 W, 199 rubles.
www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/90255290
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-90255290-e14-led1012g5

While I have not tested this lamp, I can only show a visual comparison with a 25 watt incandescent lamp.




8. Frosted candle 400 lm 602.880.70 E14 LED1328C6 6.3 W, 249 rub.


www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/60288070
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-60288070-e14-led1328c6





This lamp is a replacement for 40-watt candle lamps. It gives 416 lumens, it has a high CRI = 92.2 and a wide illumination angle of 248 °.



Visually, the lamp is slightly brighter than a 40-watt incandescent lamp, and its light is slightly yellower.




9. Transparent candle 200 lm 102.880.01 E14 LED1327C3 3.5 W, 199 rub.


www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/10288001
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-10288001-e14-led1327c3





This light bulb has a record-breaking CRI of 95.6, almost like an incandescent lamp. It is one powerful LED, giving 228 lm. The illumination angle is 231 °.



Although the manufacturer promises that this lamp is equivalent to only a 20-watt incandescent lamp, it visually shines brighter than a 25-watt incandescent lamp.




10. Spot 200 lm 802.879.89 E14 LED1318R4 3.6 W, 249 rub.


www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/80287989
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-80287989-e14-led1318r4





A spot lamp on one powerful LED gives a narrow beam of light - 33 °. Luminous flux 210 lm, CRI = 83.



To visually compare the spot with an ordinary incandescent lamp is of course incorrect. I still give a picture, but I will not draw any conclusions.




11. Spot 400 lm 402.880.52 GU10 LED1334R7 6.3 W dimmable, 249 rub.


www.ikea.com/ru/ru/catalog/products/40288052
lamptest.ru/review/ikea-40288052-gu10-led1334r7





False ceiling spot with GU10 base. It also gives a narrow beam of light of 38 °. Luminous flux of 444 lm, CRI = 82.3.



Visual comparison with a 40 watt incandescent lamp.



The LED lamps that can be bought in Ikea stores are quite good, and in terms of price / quality ratio are among the best. They have a pulsation of light, but it is within the normal range. Not all is well with dimming those lamps that support it. Three of the four tested dimmable lamps do not allow to lower the brightness below half, and only one dimmable lamp did not hum when adjusting the brightness.

All the results of the tests of these and other lamps tested by me look on the site lamptest.ru
