The verdict
A full color A19 bulb. Its white light is good (CRI 88, Rf 90), it dims down to 21 lm, its warmest white is 2501K, and flicker risk is high.
The flicker is the problem. At full brightness it measured 88% percent flicker. I would keep it out of reading lamps, desks and rooms where anyone is flicker sensitive.
