over-the-range-microwave led

Hi there, i am getting tired of changing burnt our incandescent bulbs under my microwave.
Wondering if any of you can recommend a 3-5w 4500k-ish LED for me?
Ive search amazon but so many seems to have the flickering on the low setting. Hoping someone would shed some light on this.
Thanks in advance!

I have the same problem with my range hood which has a high/low light switch. When I try to use a dimmable first gen Cree 40 watt equivalent LED bulb, it flickers slightly. I just use the high setting.

I bought a 3000K E17 bulb from Amazon and like atbglenn it flickers on “low” you pretty much have only high as usable and the beam pattern could be better or worse, hard to say. In any case expect to lose all modes but high if you do it.

Mine was advertised as dimmable but it doesnt matter the microwave doesnt dim it low regardless.

If you had low/med/high it will be med+flicker/med-high/high.
