Review on 💡 GE Lighting 49894 Energy Smart CFL 14-Watt (40-Watt Equivalent) 750-Lumens Postlight Bulb with Medium Base, 1-Pack by Tina Wells

These are beautiful outdoor lamppost bulbs, closed spiral CFLs from GE with good color rendering. , GE 49894, is not an 11-watt, 500-lumen bulb; Instead, Revain supplies a 14-watt bulb that should put out 750 lumens, which is the typical equivalent of a 60-watt bulb; Oddly enough, GE's packaging states that a 14-watt bulb is equivalent to a standard 40-watt bulb, but the bulb's packaging and labeling indicate that the bulb has a lumen output of 750 instead of the typical 11-watt 500 lumens has compact fluorescent lamps, which correspond to a lamp of 40 watts. Who do you believe here? This appears to be a GE labeling issue, and whether you get an 11-watt bulb that puts out 500 lumens or a 14-watt bulb that claims to put out 750 lumens but is only the equivalent of a 40-watt bulb matters Is not it. Pure.
