Product Description
et all the light you're accustomed to, yet only using one third of the energy! Conserving has never been easier than with these fluorescent light bulbs that are three times as efficient as standard, incandescent bulbs. Still, they emit a soft glow similar to that of incandescent lights, so your home won't have that harsh, washed-out look. Average life span for these bulbs is 8,000 hours more than five times standard 1,500-hour incandescent bulbs. These are also among the few fluorescent light bulbs on the market that won't cause problems with your X10 home automation system. The Smarthome technical staff has searched far and wide, high and low, and everywhere else in between for fluorescent bulbs that are X10-compatible, and these are among the very few that won't inject any noise in or near the critical X10 zero crossing point. For X10 operation, we recommend using non-dimming appliance modules, like the ApplianceLinc, although lamp modules will work if they are not dimmed. This 375-lumen bulb is just like our standard-sized bulb-shaped light, but smaller. Ideal for light fixtures in ceiling fans, or other places where you prefer round bulb shape. Uses only 7 watts.

Customer Reviews
10 years?
This is a great energy saver but lasted no where near as long as the 10yr guarantee on the box. I put 4 in my bathroom fixture 2 years ago and the first to go out was within the first year and a half. Now the second one has failed. At over 7 bucks a bulb I don't think I'm getting a payback on them. If you want the energy savings it's great, but if you are looking for value, i'd wait til the price comes down or where your energy company will give you a rebate.
