I have a bench grinder that would just eat up incandescent bulbs. I'm guessing it was the vibration. Do you think one of these would work?

LED typically can handle vibration better than incandescent, but this does not mean they are vibration damage proof. I would look in to some of the higher quality LED bulbs that have a solid build, those typically have all the components inside glued and filled with putty to keep them from moving around. Philips A21 line is pretty solid in this front. I don't gaurantee it won't fail...

I have a CFL in mine that has been going strong for several years. If you really want incandescent, look for "rough service" or "garage opener" bulbs. They are built stronger. If you want LED, I would get a CREE since they have the diodes mounted on a flat surface at the base using the globe to diffuse the light. Hope this helps.

I am using the Compact Table Top Grinder -110volts 2 Ltrs by PREMIER............It is working fine for me

Kind of, I was hoping..the grind is really good but the static can drive you crazy. If you find something that works, let me know. You really need to clean it out with each use.

i used it on a hand grinder. it worked at full speed but at lower speeds it looses a lot of torque.

I would highly NOT recommend this grinder. I used it just a few times and it just quit. The power was on but it wouldn't work so I had to trash it. What a waste of money! I ended up buying a Hamilton Beach, a much cheaper model, and it is working great. It is also great at grinding spices. This just goes to show that if it costs more, that doesn't mean that it's better.

I have 4 of these in a ceiling fan light fixture. They have been doing great for several months with regards to the vibration, but my fan rarely runs on high. Most of the time it is on medium or low.

I think it is too much torque to polisher. And very much of air consumption.You do Better to take of small electric Tooth grinder set.

It will do a good job but static electricity can be a problem with coarser grinds. Tap on the unit after grinding and s l o w l y remove the container of ground coffee and you shouldn't have any problems.....

I have and use about a half dozen of the grinders, but have never had a problem. Are you grinding something very tough? It might have worn down the ceramic mill. Metal grinders are best with the tough items like peppercorns. I use mine to grind coarser herbs or dried peppers.

The bulb is just glass with wire. For what ever reason it's vibration and causing it to make a noise.but to me this sounds like the outlet more then the bulb. Try another Basking bulb to see if it does the same thing

Olga: This unit did not hold up to my grinding needs. I use a fine setting with dark, oily beans, and this grinder could not handle it. The company even admitted that it wouldn't, yet refused me a refund. If you use a lighter bean, it will probably work for you. I'm unfamiliar with Turkish style coffee, and I can't tell just how fine this grinder goes, but its range seemed to be quite adequate, (assuming darker beans aren't used.)I've been using the Baratza Encore for many months. It does not buckle under when I use a fine grind with dark beans; I recommend it, and it sells for a few dollars less than the Capresso. My review of the Capresso, "Do you like a dark roast and fine grind? Beware!" may be helpful. Olga: This unit did not hold up to my grinding needs.

Yes. I used it on a battery angle grinder, which runs the battery down quick. I also use it on an old angel grinder I had laying around, works good for me

I have a track lighting system with an old, round dimmer knob. They work fine, but do not go down to the very dim light that old bulbs could go down to. I'd estimate they dim to about 25% of full strength, when old light bulbs I could get to dim down to about 2-5%. I do not hear any buzzing when I dim them.

I use this grinder for espresso drinks and have never tried grinding much more coarsely. I would recommend contacting the manufacturer. They have great customer service and can advise you fairly quickly after sending them a message.

No problems with any "static" in my experience. The storage area of the grinder is made of wood. I use mine weekly for grinding flax seed and fennel, I have had no issues what so ever with this product.

Not really, like most blade grinders it depends on how long you run it. If consistency is important, I would recommend a burr grinder.

You really need a dimmer that is made for cfl and led bulbs. This one might work but it will flutter on low .
