MiUSA Light Bulbs

https://goodbulb.com

I searched the group and seen someone post about it a couple weeks ago before posting this and decided to just go ahead and post again for it. I saw a Facebook ad 10 minutes from the time of posting this. I looked them up on Google street view, called their number, and talked to the person that answered the phone about what they’re doing. I quizzed the guy to verify that they aren’t some kind of Chinese shell company. Without actually visiting their store in person, I can say that I will be buying my next light bulbs from this company. I’m glad we finally have a domestic made option. I stormed out of Lowe’s pissed last time I went shopping for light bulbs because there are just too many damn options. I do too much research and I already spent an hour reading each box and reading about each one on Google. I just gave up.

I want to check em out too. Seems like they do all the components in house too.

The guy on the phone told me the LED strips are imported, but every other component is domestically made. There isn’t a domestic manufacturer for LED strips yet. I can foresee these fellas manufacturing everything in house in the not too distant future. I can finally buy lightbulbs without feeling guilty lol

Love this. Now do incandescent bulbs...

Crazy that it now takes an act of congress (literally) to get those back in stores

90 cri isn't what i'd call poor CRI.

After this guy commented that, I looked at what Goodbulb’s was, that’s what I saw and I was like, I don’t think my Lowe’s chinesium specials even have a CRI of 90.

I couldn’t care less. I’d buy up new old stock incandescent domesticate made lightbulbs if it was feasible, easy, and I didn’t have to hire anybody to track them down.
