Late to the party but I'm in the same boat. I used these for my porch and lights ousted the garage. They're reliable and have help up in heat and cold weather for a year now without issue.
I have my porch light turn on at dusk to a dim white level. When I get home or of the doorbell detects motion, it comes on full brightness. The garage lights switch to holiday colors for things like Halloween and Christmas time.
Overall, they've been great to use and were much less expensive than hue. I can't speak for how good the white temperatures are since they're just outdoor bulbs for me and in not reading a book on my porch or anything.
It was actually in the bottom of that bubbly treasure chest.
