Osram Parathom or Tala. Both LED and both a little warmer (2700k) but should last longer and use about 1/5th the energy. Think Tala have a 3 year warranty or something.

What is the light you're fitting them into? I know i bang on about this but clear lamps are pretty grim unless heavily diffused.
I think Tala are mostly 2500k which is too warm for anything other than night-time settings IMO. I have a range of them and they're pretty syrupy in the day, they also don't dim particularly well. I've had good results with Zico and Calex.

I like Philips warm glow LEDs, spendy but they dim properly and get nice and bright.

Thought this would be a good place to ask about light bulbs. Idk why but buying light bulbs is up there as one of my least favourite household tasks and I've just run out of our dinning rooms ones.
Currently have these which aren't very energy efficient and blow comparatively frequently. On balance I think they are a good fit with the light. Any suggestions for decent led alternatives?
Cheers.
