Any recommendations for Bulbs with the following specs?
G25 Frosted Globes
40W or 65W
Dimmable
No Buzz or Flicker
Warm Color Temp, similar to incandescents.
I just upgraded the rest of the room to Dimmable Philips "Warm Glow" BR40's and A19's, but the Philips G25 40W Warm Glow bulbs are kind of ugly, a smaller globe size than a normal G25's, and not frosted. They look kind of cheap when sitting at the table if one happens to glance up.
I tried the GE Warm Dimmable G25's from Target, they looked fine when off, but buzzed and flickered on the dimmer switches.
I've read that one can buy dimmer switches designed specifically for LED's and this can help with the buzz/flicker issues, but I'd like to avoid having to do that. The Philips 65W BR40's have a pretty awesome dimming on our current, non-LED-specific dimmer switches, so I'd think I could find the same with G25's.
Here are the 2 fixtures:
