Welcome to LafoHome, a California-based lighting brand founded by industry professionals with over a decade of lighting engineering experience. We believe beautiful lighting should never sacrifice efficiency, comfort, or lifespan.
If you’ve already switched to LED, you’ve taken a great first step.
But if you’re still using standard white-domed SMD LED bulbs, you may be missing out on the true evolution of lighting: LED Filament Bulbs — the perfect fusion of performance, aesthetics, and efficiency.
LED Filament vs Regular LED Bulbs (SMD)
Why LED Filament Bulbs Are the Superior Upgrade
1. Light Distribution: True 360° vs Directional Lighting
LED Filament Advantage – Full 360° Illumination
Traditional incandescent bulbs illuminated in all directions.
LED filament bulbs recreate this perfectly by distributing micro LED chips across transparent filaments (Chip-on-Glass technology).
✔ Full 360° omnidirectional lighting
✔ Uniform brightness without dark corners
✔ Better performance inside lampshades and enclosed fixtures
✔ More comfortable ambient glow
This delivers higher perceived brightness using the same wattage.
Regular SMD LED Limitation – Narrow & Uneven Beams
Standard SMD LEDs concentrate chips on a flat PCB base, producing a focused beam:
✖ 120°–160° directional output
✖ Harsh shadows
✖ Bright spots and uneven room lighting
✖ Poor diffusion inside decorative fixtures
This design is efficient — but visually and functionally inferior.




2. Engineered for Longevity: Superior Heat Management
Heat is the #1 reason LED bulbs fail prematurely.
Why Filament Bulbs Last Longer
LED filament bulbs use:
• Multiple low-power micro LED chips
• Transparent glass filaments
• Inert gas-filled bulbs (helium / argon)
• Natural convection cooling — no bulky metal heat sink needed
This allows heat to dissipate evenly through the entire glass envelope, keeping LED chips cooler and dramatically extending lifespan.
Result: More stable brightness, longer lifetime, fewer replacements.

3. Aesthetic Superiority: Lighting That Becomes Decor
LED filament bulbs are the only LEDs that truly recreate classic incandescent beauty.
✔ Warm amber glow
✔ Visible glowing filaments
✔ Perfect for chandeliers, pendants, vanity lights & open fixtures
✔ Decorative filament shapes (spirals, cages, loops)
Unlike standard LEDs, filament bulbs transform fixtures into visual centerpieces.
