| I'm finding T10 LED lightbulbs but they all have the bottom half of the bulb blocked out which means they aren't that pretty when used inside a frosted glass elongated sconce. Anyone else have this problem and have a solution? so the result looking at the sconce doesn't have the bottom half "grayed out"? Guess I could post a picture. Will try to do that later. |

| All I can think of is to use one of the increasing number of omnidirectional LED bulbs - they're not the long-and-skinny T10 shape but they will shine light sidewasys and downwards. |

| Just got an email from 1000Bulbs.com about a new LED bulb- Decorative Torpedo, and its dimmable. Looks nice and its only $10. |

| You can find some tubes which is using 3014 or 5630 LEDs inside, they will not have spot on the frosted cover. |

| Try looking at some of the bulbs listed here. Several didn't look that bad and they are all at 2700k which is similar to a regular incandescent light color. http://1000bulbs.com/category/led-torpedo-2700k-warm-white/ |

| Avoid the versions made by Archipelago. We have used those with very little success. They lasted no more than 60 days when used in our dining room chandelier. |
