Hello, its me again with another question

I see many of my friends moving to energy saving bulbs at home and I decided to buy 1 myself to see how it all works.

Currently I am using those:
100 x Osram Lightbulb Drops 40W E27 clear lightbulb 40 Watt Lightbulb Balls | eBay

And now I would like to try those:
E27 JT52 220V Energy Saving LED Bulb Light Lamp 3W 5W 7W 9W 12W Cool/Warm White | eBay

Now my question is about voltage. The ones I currently use have specs of 230V and the ones I am looking at have specs of AC 85 - 265V. Does that means any voltage from 85 to 265 would work (including 230) or only 85 or 265?

I already made sure it matches my outlet so it is E27. Is there anything else I should be looking at?

Thanks.

As long as the socket matches....you have nothing to worry about. I switched to all Florescent bulbs about 8 years back, this is before LED's bulbs were available to the consumer.

When I switched I made sure that bulb switch correlated with my by bill cycle so I would have a true benchmark. Let me tell you....my electric bill dropped $80....it was unbelievable. I'm really looking forward to doing the same with the LED bulbs now that they are reasonably priced now.

Thanks for the answer, I will buy 1 of those I attached a link to and see if it lights good If it does Ill replace them all.

Also...is it better to have white or warm white?

White light is more harsh. Warm white is more "comfortable" looking. More warm. I'd go with warm white.

For me it's where I want the light in the house......white/bright lights in the kitchen/dinning room and bathrooms. Soft warm lights in the living room and bedrooms.
