Review on 10-Pack 250W E11 Base Halogen Light Bulbs, Mini Candelabra, 120V - Bright Illumination Solution by Kelly Ponder

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Worst halogen bulb design I've seen

Completely useless to me. The large blob of solder at the junction of the threads and ceramic base, by design, systematically prevents them from being screwed deep enough into the socket to make an electrical connection. Possibly worse, the glass (quartz) envelope of each lamp tested was contaminated, which could have caused an explosion during operation. Good for the trash - I guess that's why they were so "frugal".

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as others
