I got this universal Gx53 7w Gx53 30pcs 5050smd LED flashlight to replace Feit 9w fluorescent bulbs originally bought by Lowes in 2011 and now it seems almost extinct and expensive if you can find them. And you don't have to buy the whole fixture to get light. The old fluorescent tubes were a good solution back then, but they got hot and burned out in just over a year. As a result, these LEDs work great and fit right into their native sockets. It appears lighter and whiter. . I think these LEDs last longer and don't get as hot. Time will tell how long they last. I will buy more.
