The affected bulb models are A19, G25 and R20 (also known as PAR20) LED bulbs. The model type will appear alone or with one of the following prefixes: “ECS” referring to Ecosmart (a brand of Home Depot); “DFN” referring to Definity (a brand of LSG); “OSI” referring to Osram Sylvania; or “WHP” referring to Westinghouse. The suspected bulbs are identified by a date code from October 2010 to March 2011. These codes can be found at the base of the bulb printed in the format “L4810”, which would indicate the 48th week of 2010 (i.e., Nov 29th, 2010).

FWIW I have many Ecosmart LED's that are designed as a retrofit for recessed can fixtures, they work really well. Great light output and fully dimmable.
