So now with time to google these:
The idea is that these should last longer in theory and be more efficient in general.
Standard filament LED's, with a capacitor to drop the LED's from being at max blast all the time. Hey if they arent hot enough to boil water, they live longer. wow.
That said, the price is higher too.
Why is this happening?
Because they banned the old school globes like everwhere else, but later. This is just a marketing deal slapped on top for a positive spin on it.
Huge epilepsy/strobing warning: add a capacitor, make your own dooby lamps!
My guess, they got their dimmable lamps, set em to 50% or so out of the box: tada, higher price
