Review on πŸ’‘ Westinghouse Lighting 0348400: Powerful 250W Infrared Heat Incandescent R40 Light Bulb - 5000 Hours Long Lasting Performance by Roger Alexander

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Long lasting, long lasting incandescent lamp, ideal for the bathroom heating

I rent an apartment with two lamps, a heat source and a lamp with a fan. I live in California where they no longer sell lightbulbs. Most places don't ship lightbulbs to California so I was happy to know that this lightbulb would ship to California and I even ordered three extra lightbulbs. This Westinghouse light bulb has an output of 250 watts and 120 volts. Supposedly 5000 hours. I was replacing a Phillips lightbulb that had been in the bathroom for a little over 2 years before it died. I think all those lightbulbs exaggerate how long they last. I don't believe the 5,000 hour claim, but it's too early to say for sure. The light emitted by this bulb is bright white and does not have the yellow cast of some bulbs. It's a headlight, so there's no problem with moisture. When our lightbulb died, it was the only lightbulb I could find that could be shipped to California. This is a very efficient lightbulb. You can feel the temperature difference in the room when a light bulb is on in the bathroom. I am very satisfied with the performance of this lamp. Now if I could just find a 65 watt incandescent bulb for other bathroom lighting I'd be fine as I currently use LED which I hate.

Pros
  • This is amazing
