Sylvania Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb

We got this bulb for a reading light. We needed the equivalent of a 150 watt light bulb, and this certainly fills the bill!

It is VERY bright, and feels like sunlight in terms of the color. It has a color number of 3000K and a rated output of 2600 lumens.

We like this compact fluorescent better than some of the others we have gotten, which are dimmer to begin with, although they brighten up in a bit. Some faster than others!

This one comes on fast and bright.

It cost us about 10 smackeroos, which we thought was a bit high, but this was the only 150 watt equivalent we could find at the local big box retailer, and hubby really needed a reading light since his last 3-way conventional had gone down to 50 watts only. We did NOT want to get another conventional bulb for that relatively high usage lamp.

The expected life of the bulb is 6000 hours.

Unlike some other compact fluorescents which we have gotten or looked at, this bulb has NO warning about interference with radios, cordless phones, televisons, and//or remote controls.

SPECS:

Power usage: 40 watts
Light output: 2600 lumens
Color number: 3000K
Life expectancy: 6000 hours

MUST be operated base down.
Limited 5 yr warranty
Contains mercury

Good product. Saves energy while giving out good usable light. Lasts much longer than regular incandescent light bulbs, and uses much less energy, while putting out as much light.

Have a Light!

Prometheus brought it to man and now it can sustain our evenings with energy that maintains our dreams. Place a fluorescent light bulb and replace each light in your house and you give to earth fuel back for the evening of life and our simple blue planet.

buy these bulbs

I've been changing all of my lights over as needed to these new bulbs. It's great not to have to change bulbs every few months! It seems like the light goes out at the worst time......not with these guys! Oh, did I mention they save a ton of energy and money? A
